Just a small bug fix and feature request release.

Changes:
- Bot will no longer keep items if told "go" instead of "yes" at skill check confirmation.

- Crafting recipe, person who initiated the trade, and tinkering target (if applicable) added to debug.txt output.

Is there anyway for the bot to display chances of success based of his/her max buffed stats instead of his/her current stats?

Can there be a way to check his/her stats before he/she actually starts doing the tinks to make sure he/she has everything equipped and all buffs applied? As you know as soon as you cast brill the bot starts appling and there's no chance for checking skill level.

The reason I ask is because I went to use Strega the Witch (MT) last night and she displayed her chances of success based off her current buffs (606) instead of her maxxed buffs (674). She failed on a 96% chance of success tink (9th tink, wms 5 item with Major Coord sad , using wms 8 steel) and that made me wonder if she had all of her buffs and everything equipped.

You are complaining about a tinkering fail at 96%?

I have seen and heard reports of people failing at 99%..just remember, a 96% chance of success is also a 4% chance of failure.

You just had a bad roll of the dice.

If you had used a work 10 bag of steel, your chance of success would have gone up to 98.76% assuming a skill of 674.

I'd rather underestimate instead of overestimate. What if the item is out of mana? Or not on the bot? Or can't be equipped because the bot owner messed up the configuration?

As it is, the skill check is accurate for the current stats of the bot. You may be a percent or two higher, depending on cantrips. (Exceptions are beers and rares in the trade window. These cause the bot to calculate its stats and percent of success based on the use of these items. Brilliance is also an exception -- I think it's common enough to include by default, and it's something that the bot user controls, rather than the bot. It's also explicitly stated in the chance of success message.)

As Abdul said, 96% is not 100%. I'm sorry you lost your item, but that's one of the risks you take when tinkering.

No, I'm not complaining about a 96% chance of success. Things can blow up, I understand that. I knew ahead of time what the chance of success was, but when I went to apply the tinks, I'm shown a different % based off a lower skill, it just made me wonder if all the buffs and cantrips were in place.

I'm just asking for one more skill display after all the cantrips have been applied. That way people know whether or not something has run out of mana, etc.

As I said, it doesn't use cantrips in its calculation, so it doesn't matter if it's out of mana. If it isn't, your chance of success may be slightly higher. If it is, your chance of success is what the bot says it is.

If something does run out of mana, the bot asks for a mana charge/stone (assuming that feature is enabled by the bot owner.)

Ok, thanks.

I didn't know that the bot would/could ask for mana charges. I didn't want to assume anything. You know what they say about people assuming... wink

Would it be possible to at least give us the OPTION to input our tinkering skill based on what we know we have set up on our toons (cantrips, etc). I'd rather show the correct odds to people rather than a low based guesstimate without the gear we'll have on when the tinkering takes place. Just the OPTION to use our correct odds of success? Thank you, and thanks for a great plugin!

Yeah, it's on my "nice to have" list.
