Ch3.1: Sortie

No pain, no gain

Overview -- Sortie mode: Auto

In short, Sortie mode: Auto could finish daily, weekly and monthly quests fully automated

It brings you a highly automated experience:

  1. kcauto-custom picks an available quest for you
  2. It loads the preset you defined in Noro6
  3. It sorties to the map which requested from the quest

On the other hand, the setup is a bit more complicated, you will have to setup a few things in Noro6 and kcauto_custom

  1. map and quest id: What map does this fleet(編成) file setup for(ex. is it for 1-5? or 6-3 from Bq4?)
  2. Ship and equipment: What ship and equipment to use
  3. Quest pool: What quest you want to do

With that said, let's begin~

Dependece

Noro6

I mean... it's obvious we need this, right?

Noro6 is a great simulator and you can import your ship & equipment pool to setup your own fleet.

More on that later.

Config setup

There are three steps to setup your noro6 config file, a template is located in configs/noro6/noro6:

  1. Export your ship and equipment to noro6
  2. Create your noro6 config
  3. Import the noro6 config to kcauto_custom

Exporting

Let's start with exporting your own ship and equipment to noro6
Well it's kinda simple,

Open Noro6 Exporter

Click export to Noro6

Now click setting, then import the tutorial in configs/noro6/noro6_tutorial

That's it, we are done!

Setting up config

Next step, we are going to edit a fleet config

Let's open B-1-1

Ummmm... What can I say?
Just set up your fleet and equipment here, don't forget to save I guess?
There will be lots of configs to setup, the clipboard function in noro6 is a life saver.

clipboard function could save you effort

Import to kcauto_custom

Click setting => Create backup file => Overwrite the configs/noro6/noro6 template, that's it.

Sortie mode: Auto test run

After you setup B-1-1 config,
you can use auto fleet from kcauto_cui

That's it, let's try it out!

Put together your own sortie noro6 config

The B-1-1 is a huge step, but that alone doesn't do much.
Now you want to create noro6 configs as needed,
here are things to be aware of:

  1. The file name of every fleet config must be B<quest_id>-<world>-<stage>-<target_node>.
    For example, B-1-1 is the config made for 1-1,
    By6-1-2 is the config specially made for 1-2 in quest By6,
    B-7-2-G is the config made for 7-2-G.
  2. You can assign both ships and equipment in a config.
  3. LBAS (Land-Based Air Squadrons) assign is sadly NOT supported yet.
  4. If a quest specify config is not found(ex. By6-1-2), kcauto_custom would fall back to normal config (ex. B-1-2)
  5. Feel free to add your own config (I am sure I've missed quite a few quest related configs)
  6. If you're too lazy to finish all the configs at once, REMOVE those you didn't setup, or kcauto_custom would get confuse

There is a template at configs/noro6/noro6_template to save you some naming time if you want to finish your setup in once
You do have to remove those unuse config if you decide to start from this template

An example of configs

Use Sortie mode: Auto in kcauto_cui

After finishing all config you need,
you can use auto mode from kcauto_cui
