How the Luck and HP work for monster races

badmin

Please let me know if I can make this clearer in any way. I'm not the greatest with explanations

Luck and HP refer to the monster status. You can find this by talking to the "Ticket Helper" and selecting "Monster Status" e.g.

Luck

a random value between 1 and 70

this affects the HP value in the following ways
"Combination" is a label I'll refer to later

Combination |   1   |   2   |   3   |   4   |   5   |   6   |
       Luck |  1-10 | 11-30 | 31-40 | 41-50 | 51-60 | 61-70 |
         HP | 50-60 | 40-60 | 30-50 | 20-40 | 10-30 |  0-20 |

as you can see, the higher the luck, the lower the HP.

luck corresponds to a couple locations in the track where the monster will either change her walk speed or get stunned.
generally speaking, the higher the luck the higher the chance to change speed (usually a boost) and lower the chance to get stunned

HP

in the code, HP is referred to as "tired". I have no clue how they got HP, but "tired" makes more sense moving forward so I'm going to use that.
"tired" corresponds to locations in the track which trigger the sleep status
generally speaking, the higher the "tired" value, the fewer spots which can trigger the sleep status

Track Locations

Here are all the potential Luck and Tired locations

Location Effects

Speed Change

the code is pretty short so here it is
each monster's default walk speed is 150, so usually this will be a speed boost for 10 seconds.

Sleep Effect

again the code is short so here it is
usually the monster will sleep for one second, with up to four and possibly not sleep at all

Stun Effect

here's the code
usually the monster will be stunned for a second, with up to four and possibly not get stunned.
functionally speaking sleep and stun should act the same

Location Rules

sleep effect at column 43 is always enabled

Combination 1

both stun effect columns are enabled

Combination 2

stun at column 49 is enabled
if tired >= 50, sleep at column 39 is enabled
- I think this is a bug in the code and that it should read if tired < 50

Combination 3

speed change at column 33 is enabled
sleep at column 39 is enabled
if tired < 40, sleep at column 35 is enabled

Combination 4

speed change at columns 33 and 37 are enabled
sleep at columns 35 and 39 are enabled
if tired < 30, sleep at column 55 is enabled

Combination 5

speed change at columns 33, 37 and 53 are enabled
sleep at columns 35, 39 and 55 are enabled
if tired < 20, sleep effect at column 51 is enabled

Combination 6

all speed change columns are enabled
all sleep effect columns are enabled except column 47, which is only enabled if tired < 10
