Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible

[Resolved] Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
June 07, 2017 03:05PM
The list below is of legacy challenges prior to the new rules. What I would like to do is add a GC Checker if scripting is possible. A few of these have already been made for other challenges i.e. Non Traditional Alphabet Challenge. I really appreciate whatever help you can offer. Thanks...

This thread is difficult to answer because all the challenges require either a different scipt or a new script.
For Iowa Elevation Challenge
by The Bride | GC46MR1 | Iowa
the checker is http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC46MR1/26913 but there is a question from my side:
The bands are discribed as 20 feet but the last one then end a 1680 in stead of 1670 is that correct?
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
June 07, 2017 05:50PM
yes that is correct...

Favorite Cacher Challenge
by The Bride | GC4670K | Iowa
The checker is http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC4670K/26916

The printout is not cutting off at the first groups but continues for more groups of owners till it reaches the total allowed lines. Sorry about that but with groups there is no control statement in the script.

Maybe mole125 can have a look at this when it is a problem

Know Your Local Cachers-Iowa-Challenge
by The Bride | GC31A50 | Iowa
Here is the checker http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC31A50/26919

This is the last checker of the normally used scripts
In the list are also challenges where there is no info in the API present so no checker can be made.
I'll mark those as "impossible no info available for a checker"

There are also some others which need a closer look or a new script

Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
June 07, 2017 08:31PM
Thank you so much for all that you did. GC31A50 works great. As far as the ones impossible due to no info, I will mark those appropriately in the cache description. Then if some need a new script, I will add those when available. Thanks again for such amazing help.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
June 07, 2017 10:19PM
Around the World in 80 Caches is a strange one. Since you can choose your reference point, it seems almost impossible to not qualify once you have 80 finds. It would be rather difficult to write a script for, though.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 02, 2017 10:34AM
For Favorite State Challenge, please take a look at //project-gc.com/Challenges/GC48KGD/27373

Howdy,

I took a stab at two of these with Sumblokes help and think I found a bug in the GetFinds call available to the script developers.

It has been escalated up the food chain.

Thanks to SumBloke for extending the filtering in his macro and to Magnus for fixing one of the API calls.

The one downside is the inability to filter out archived caches.

The Iowa version will be a quick mod of this script.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 06, 2017 02:20PM
It did not work accurately. This challenge is to find 20 active caches with your highest favorite point total but using at least 6 different types. Here was the output I got when running the checker:


check16.png I made it with 1607 finds and needed only 20 Filters:( minFavoritePoints:20)

I made it with 8 different types and needed only 6 Filters:( minFavoritePoints:20)

Found Types: Letterbox Hybrid, Virtual Cache, Unknown Cache, Traditional Cache, Wherigo Cache, Multi-cache, Earthcache, Webcam Cache

Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 06, 2017 05:48PM
Where does the with your highest favorite point total language come from.?

The language to me says more than 20 with 20 or more do. And atleast 6 types with 20 or more favorite points.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 06, 2017 05:54PM
You are correct that is what the language says, but as you will see cachers like to update their stats with the current maximum total of points achieved and I then add that to the cache description for others to view. Ideally, the checker would give the cacher their current maximum total if possible.

Thanks so much for your effort in trying to make this possible.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 06, 2017 07:44PM
Does the top 20 have to include the 6 types?
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 06, 2017 08:47PM
Yes...you might have 15 Traditionals, 1 letterbox, 1 wig, 1 ec, 1 multi, and 1 virtual

Attribute Challenge
by The Bride | GC46MD8 | Iowa

Here is a checker: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC46MD8/27545

Let us know if that's what you require.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 11, 2017 02:48PM
Thank you for the checker GC3CR8Q, it works great. Thanks so much
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:11PM
Nice checker , thanks .
However I just noticed that the checker ignores the negative attributes.
Can the CO confirm that this is correct because nothing is mentioned in the cache description.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:15PM
That's perfectly fine to be just positive attributes. Thanks so much for your attention to detail.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:16PM
Can add negative attributes too. Should be a minor change.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:19PM
That would be great if you would like to do that. I certainly appreciate it.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:22PM
Negative ones counted as well now. Thanks for pointing out the glitch, vogelbird.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:20PM
I just used the script for a checker for positive attributes only so please make the script to used both options
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 13, 2017 08:32PM
Added options for positive and negative, so you can include both or either of them. Please change tag to suit.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
July 14, 2017 05:45PM
Completed...thanks for the update to the checker

Thanks for checker GC46MD8, it works great. Thanks so much.

Anybody working on a script for the "extended requirements" of these? If not, I'll take a stab at it.

I've written a script for:

Please verify that they're functioning as requested. Also please check that I've included all the cache types that you allow for this challenge.
Re: Legacy Challenges...needing checkers if possible
August 27, 2017 10:33PM
These both work great...thanks so much. This will save all the cachers to much time to filter their favorites.

Are there any unfinished but possible checkers needed?
