| | -a | --alt | Use Wanderer's algorithm for determining when to spend potatoes to reduce orcs. This spends a potato if ORCS could win this round and POTATOES could not, OR if ORCS is greater than one and a 1d10 comes up less than the ORCS score. It will only spend a potato if there are enough potatoes to spend. | | |||||
| | -p | --potatoper N | Use the Potato-Per algorithm for determining when to spend potatoes to reduce orcs, using a ratio of N potatoes to 1 orc. This spends a potato when the ratio of POTATOES to ORCS rises above a certain amount, modified by the POTATOES cost to reduce ORCS by 1. It will only spend a potato if there are enough potatoes to spend. | | |||||
