Macros

As of Feb 3, 2012 I have copied over my macros from the T4 wiki. I previously maintained macros on T4 wiki during Tale 4, 5 and 6. They locked the T4/T5 wiki from updates about a week ago, so here they go. Make sure you do NOT have any bookmarks to my Tale 4 Macros page.

TaleScripts (Community supported Veggie Tales Updates)

Jan 29, 2012: Talescript is pretty much setup now and ready for use.

You do not need to manually install any of the below VeggieTales updates, if you use Talescripts. We are still reviewing the other veggie tales 3rd party macros. If yours is not included yet, be patient.

Talescripts is a repository for Veggie Tales so that all the many variations of the scripts for it, can be accessed in one central location. AHK support will be added later.

Instead of viewing the many wiki authors' pages for updates, you can just right click your Talescripts folder and synch. Any new updates will be automatically downloaded. Piecing together your macro suite from various sources and keeping up with updates can be difficult. They can all be synched from one source instead.

A good example of this, is my below onions and flax updates. My onion update was actually an update to KasumiGhia's onion update. Then she made another update/improvement, but still included my updates. So maybe you have downloaded the onion update below. But if you didn't revisit KasumiGhia's page, you would not know there is actually another improved version. By using a central repository, you can always be sure you have the latest version of the lua, images files, etc.

But there are many 3rd party updates as well as new macros that have been released since Veggie Tales 1.5.9. These will also be included.

Synching can be done with two different programs, GIT or SVN. You do NOT need to install both of these programs. I recommend using SVN, it is a small download and integrates with Windows Explorer and very easy to use. However if you are participating with the updates, etc, then you probably would want Git instead. It is more flexible and the repository is a git server. SVN is more of a workaround/hack to access a git server (but more simpler for new users to just grab updates, in my opinion). More info on below link:

T6 Veggie Tale Updates

Updates for Tale 6 means these were released in Tale 6. Not that something special has changed that required a change for this tale.

Onions Update: (this is an update to my favorite 3rd party 'modified' version of onions macro.

Here is the original listing and link as it appears on the T5 Macros page:

• Edited macros for VeggieTales by KasumiGhia (This is the onions macro that was tweaked/updated).
• I highly recommend this 'modified Onion script' by KasumiGhia. It fixes alot of the minor variables that can break the script and adds some conveniences.

Updates to KasumiGhia's Onions Macro:

Updates/Tweaks by Cegaiel:

• Will now refresh the plant window, after harvesting.
  • This is in case you used all your seeds during planting which makes the plant window to be blank (as there are no more seeds in inventory after you planted your last seed).
  • By refreshing the plant window after harvesting, it will not cause an error (Plant window not found) on 2nd and subsequent passes.
• screen_refresh_time changed from 100 to 300, to help prevent pin up problems on slower computers. This doesn't need to be so fast as the game doesn't really keep up anyways on 4x4 or small grids.
• Added instructions in the script that 'Right click Pins/Unpins a Menu' must be ON and 'Right click opens a Menu as pinned' must be OFF.

Updates/Tweaks by Taral:

• Found/corrected minor bug where the 'fill jugs' routine was off by 1.
  • If you claim to have enough jugs it is not suppose to ask to refill jugs, at beginning. However this was off by one (ie if you said you have 60 jugs AND if your grid required 60 jugs, you would be required to enter 61 jugs to not force you to refill jugs at beginning).
• Also condensed my 3 lines of updated code, into 1 line of code (refresh plant window routine).

Flax Updates:

• Flax.lua Update - 100% original lua file, except that it refreshes plant window after harvesting. This is in case you used your last seeds during planting (causing the plant window to be empty, because your inventory of seeds is empty). Prevously it would cause a Plant window not found on 2nd and subsequent plantings.
  • Last Update: Dec 17, 2011

• FlaxSeeds.lua Update - 100% original lua file, except that it refreshes plant window after harvesting. This is in case you used your last seeds during planting (causing the plant window to be empty, because your inventory of seeds is empty). Prevously it would cause a Plant window not found on 2nd and subsequent plantings.
  • Last Update: Dec 17, 2011

• Flaxcommon.inc Update - 100% original lua file, except that it now correctly calculates the seeds required for FlaxSeeds.lua file. Previously, the seed amounts were not displayed correctly with multiple passes. (ie 1 or 2 pass of a 5x5 grid would show 25 seeds, instead of 25 or 50). Default refocus and screen refresh rates adjusted to more balanced/efficient to both slower and fast/lagfree computers.
  • Last Update: Jan 20, 2011

Note: I use safe/slower delays in the macros to help people with slower or laggy computers.

If you have a descent system and lag free, you can speed up the macro, which can help achieve larger (4x4 on onions, and larger than 5x5 on flax). The flax_common.inc file is also read by the onions macro. So adjust these values will affect both the flax and onions script

These are the values, in flax_common.inc, for pin up actions.

refocus_time = 150
refocus_click_time = 150
screen_refresh_time = 300

If you have a fast/lag free computer you might try changing screen_refresh_time to 150 or even 100. But if you start noticing it freezing while pinning or while ripping the plants up. Then increase the value again.

I personally use 150, 150, 150, on a ddr2 machine with 4Gb memory, Geforce 8400GS, Sata 3.0 system. No problems.
