[Resolved] GC6K01T - Water Lovers Attribute Checker
June 03, 2016 01:29AM
Hello,

I am looking for a checker for the following requirements:
-Cacher has found a minimum of 20 caches that have one of these four attributes: "boat", "may require swimming", "may require wading", "scuba gear".
-Caches that have more than one of those attributes only count once (so it's 20 unique caches)

Thank you in advance!

It seems the checker for this cache can be used for your needs. You would need to tag yours with the attributes you want.

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't think I can change the tags myself.
Also, that cache lists several requirements that I don't wish to use (events not being a qualifying cache type and a time restriction on cache publish dates).

An the checker dont look for the same thing.
It looks for 20 different attributes from the list max one per cache.
Not 20 caches with any of the attributes

This one is correct but the output in not optimal for 20 in group

Thank you!

I used the one that Target posted (http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6K01T/21138) for another local cacher (Cbk. Werewolf) and found that it lists several caches twice for qualifying. Is that what you meant by the output not being optimal?

No that men that the checker is not correct. It can use the same cache twice.
I was not sure how it worked and read the code incorrectly.
I will disable the tag.


this should work

That script does not check dates or limit cache types. That said, see reply from Target. The script I found does not meet your needs.

Does this work for you? New guidelines do not allow restrictions on found dates.

That checker count number of attributs on found caches.
Not number of caches with one of more of those attribute.
Try it on me and you will get the same cache listed twice on the top

The checker that i posted is correct if a am not misstaken

It does duplicate caches. I'll remove it.
