# Refactoring, Potential bugfixes, and additional abort messages
#Version 6f97a73c-9181-435a-8d0c-2f40be7465fc - Cheese (#1759414)
# Initial version; untested because no account in war
#It is VERY important that before using this macro and going on the sidequest, you set 3 timers:
#You must set them in the following order, and they must be your only timers running at the time.
#Set your first timer to be "wrench", your second to be "pliers", and your third to be "screwdriver"
#All timers should be set for 99 turns, which should be more than enough time to complete the side quest.
#Each time you find a tool and are sent to find the next, shrug the effect of the tool you are searching to find
#For instance, if you find the hammer, and are sent to find the wrench, shrug the effect "wrench"
#Change the subroutine kill to be your prefered method of disposing of a monster.
#change noted point to be your preferred method of stalling a monster
#Check if this might be your gremlin
