How does the cloning potion work, exactly

candy-box-2

When I drink a cloning potion, what exactly gets cloned? Is the clone identical to me in stats (max hp, and hp remaining at time of cloning?) do they weild the same weapon, and does that weapon retain magical effects like summoning or fireballs? E.g. If I have an octopus summoning crown, will the clone's crown double the rate? If I drink a health potion, will my clone?

The clone has it's current and max HP set to whatever your current HP is.

It creates a new weapon called "Its fist, its fist". It doesn't retain any upgrades.

Your clone definitely does not drink potions though.

I'm not so great at following JS so I could be wrong. You can have a look for yourself here.

var PlayerCloneMedium = (function (_super) {
__extends(PlayerCloneMedium, _super);
// Constructor
function PlayerCloneMedium(quest, pos) {
    _super.call(this, quest, pos, new Naming("A clone", "a clone"), new RenderArea(11, 4), new Pos(0, 0), new CollisionBoxCollection(new CollisionBox(this, new Pos(0, 0), new Pos(11, 1)), new CollisionBox(this, new Pos(1, 1), new Pos(9, 1)), new CollisionBox(this, new Pos(2, 2), new Pos(7, 1)), new CollisionBox(this, new Pos(4, 3), new Pos(3, 1))), new QuestEntityMovement());

    // Set the team
    this.setTeam(QuestEntityTeam.PLAYER);

    // Set destructible
    this.setDestructible(true);
    this.setMaxHp(quest.getGame().getPlayer().getHp());
    this.setHp(quest.getGame().getPlayer().getHp());

    // Set the ascii art and the transparent character
    this.getRenderArea().drawArray(Database.getAscii("players/medium"));
    this.setTransparency(new RenderTransparency(" ", "%"));

    // Set the weapon and its delay
    this.addQuestEntityWeapon(new QuestEntityWeapon(this.getQuest(), this, new Naming("Its fists", "its fists"), new CollisionBoxCollection(new CollisionBox(this, new Pos(-1, -1), new Pos(13, 6))), 3));
    this.getLastQuestEntityWeapon().getCloseCombatDelay().setFixedDelay(3);
}
return PlayerCloneMedium;
})(QuestEntity);
