Zugbot Turbos and Testing Thread

Congratulations to the Mafia for winning!

The Mafia:
Litten
Atlas

is there any way to speed up action processing?
it takes upwards of 10 seconds, which could prove life-altering in a turbo

especially if its long enough to get out a cop claim

further proved problematic by mobile’s issue of blocking the whole screen

uhhhhhhh I can increase the rate at which it checks its notifications
if I make it too fast I make my connection to FoL terrible, but I think it can do with a few less seconds

currently it’s set to 10 seconds, plus the time it takes to actually process stuff

About Zugbot

Zugbot is a bot made to host mafia games on FoL. It is currently experimental; if there are any bugs, report them to @Zugzwang and/or the game hosts.

Voting

Votes are placed with the same syntax that is usually used by the VC plugin on FoL. However, ambiguous votes are resolved differently.

If your vote is an not an exact match* for any playernames, and is not a substring of exactly one playername, it will be resolved to Not Voting.

Examples:

  • The playerlist is {Zugzwang, wrongboy, joycat}. You vote for “Zug”. This vote is resolved to Zugzwang.
  • The playerlist is {Zugzwang, Zugbot, joycat}. You vote for “Zug”. This vote is resolved to Not Voting.
  • The playerlist is {Zugzwang, wrongboy, joycat}. You vote for “g”. This vote is resolved to Not Voting.
  • The playerlist is {Zugzwang, cat, joycat}. You vote for “Cat”. This vote is resolved to cat.
  • The playerlist is {Zugzwang, wrongboy, joycat}. You vote for “May”. This vote is resolved to Not Voting.

*Capitalization, spaces, and other characters that cannot be present in Discourse usernames are ignored.

Voting is plurality only.

Actions

  • Actions are submitted on the forum, with the exception of the mafia factional kill.
  • All publicly submitted actions need a ping to Zugbot. Privately submitted actions do not.
  • Multiple actions should not be submitted in the same post (this may cause them to be processed out of order).
  • If you have an action, the syntax needed to use it is explained in your rolecard.
  • Instant actions should be processed in under a minute. Even if an action is not instant, it will provide immediate acknowledgement, to show it has been seen.
    • If an action does not do this:
      • You may have forgotten to ping Zugbot
      • You may have mistyped the syntax or mispelled a username
      • There may be a bug in the bot (during testing, this is the most likely outcome)
      • Zugbot may have went offline
  • The mafia factional kill is submitted in wolfchat on Discord, through the Discord bot there.
    • The command to submit the nightkill is “$nightkill [player]”.
  • The factional is mandatory and not assigned.

what types of abilities does this bot has?

registered, i mean
does it have the typical mu joat 10er, for example

Day 1 has begun.

Ping

there’s not many abilities currently coded in, but it’s designed to make roles easy to write

I think a JOAT (vig, cop, doctor) shouldn’t be too hard to make

some changes need to be made to accommodate certain role types (like neighborhoods and voting-related stuff, and complicated redirection/roleblocking needs a lot of work)

but with some role types, it’s basically plug and play

it doesn’t register shorthand names for actions, apparently
