Script Summary: Adjusts speed and deliciousness ability consumption on Hard mode deliveries. Modded from Yukio's PW Hard Speedbot 0.7.2, itself modded from Razithel's ExHard SpeedBot v.03.

Currently works for Hard deliveries. Should support builds with any D-Speed, Dash, and Decel.

Method:
Attempts to keep the user at the highest speed possible at all times. In general, this means it will always set to the highest available speed. For most of the delivery, there will be two exceptions:

1) If the user is currently attempting to pass a hurdle of 1. In this case, the speed will be reduced to 3, but immediately accelerated if the current speed is already less than or equal to 3. This works on the assumption that a speed of 3 reduces the difficulty enough to make it possible to pass the mission, and that any failures will result in trivial damage.

If the next hurdle is 1 but the user has not reached it, the script will continue to accelerate as much as possible and generally overshoot the hurdle, working with the same assumption that the player has enough Durability to sustain the damage taken in the process.

2) If the current hurdle is 2, regardless of whether the user has reached it. In this case, the script will attempt to reduce the speed as much as necessary to reach it (but may, again, overshoot).


Near the end of the ride, the script will lower the speed if it is still possible to reach the end in the same number of moves from that speed. It will only lower to even-numbered speeds. This is to reduce the number of turns needed to reduce the speed in case of a hurdle of 2, but done at a point where the speed reduction is unlikely to make the ride take longer. It will not reduce the speed below what is necessary to pass the current hurdle if the hurdle is greater than 2.



Changes to Melty Cheese consumption: On will now be consumed whenever the player has less than or equal to 190 Deliciousness, or when the player is currently on a hurdle of difficulty to but at a speed greater than 2. (To make up for inevitable deliciousness impacts.)

No abilities will be consumed unless the player has sufficient Drivetrain remaining to support them.
