{Answered: Thanks!} ASCENDANT QUESTION (for AI scripters): What conditional do you use?

[Virtual_Swayy 10]

I'd like to do this without a mod since I'm on my first playthrough (lvl 17 on veteran) still getting achievements, but focus > 90 being the highest just sucks.

How do you guys code conditionals for casting ONLY once ascended?

Right now I tried to hard-code in a few [smoke-invis>red hand shot] assassinations  to basically guarantee full focus before letting him cast, but that often doesn't work bc for various reasons he isn't full before getting to the casting blocks.

I'm not sure if you can export the AI scripts (or how to), but if it would help to see what I'm trying now I'd be glad to post it.

Thanks in advance!

Without a mod this is pretty impossible. There's no conditional to let you detect max focus or the ascended status. My only solution has been to micromanage the cipher a lot.

Thanks @thelee.  Sounds like you know a good bit about scripting.

I'd be grateful if you'd take a look at my other questions here:

i did my best to answer some of those questions, but unfortunately the vanilla AI scripting--while useful--is pretty limited. I think for some of the more sophisticated stuff you want to do you will definitely have to go with a mod.

Dude, @thelee you rocked it! I highly encourage anyone interested in scripting to go read your thorough (and correct from what I've tested so far) analysis in the other post.
