Jesse's new spells thread

Yay!
Welcome back Jesse and thanks again for the rgr/pal spells update.

 

Yes. Hold Person only holds humanoids. Hold Monster holds humanoids and non-humanoids alike. Mass Hold Monster will as well.

 

5.0.2 + v16 dll.
I can confirm that Heroes feast is not being applied to all the PCs it is cast on.
Also the fear immunity is not working since the ones that are getting effected by the spell run away from the balor in fear.

 

I don't know that I can do anything about that in script. The script simply applies an effect and a duration; it's up to the engine to remove it.

I know about this problem but I'm not yet sure of how to address it. Basically, the Heroes' Feast script runs through all of the targets and attempts to apply a series of effects. Unfortunately it looks like it's overloading the engine or something, because it simply fails to stick on some characters. Might be able to investigate causes and solutions more when winter break comes up next month . . .

 

Happy holiday feasting, everybody!

I believe I have fixed the problem in Heroes' Feast. I tested it just a little while ago and it was working for my whole party. (Might still have issues if you have a party of 5 PC + 3 NPC or some other large combo, I don't know yet.)

In brief, I changed some of the looping and removed the code for using the spell on unwilling targets - the latter seems nonsensical anyhow, because an "unwilling target" would generally be someone with whom you're in combat, and you can't cast the spell in combat anyway. Besides which, who wouldn't want all of the rad buffs from the spell?

Anyway, without further ado, enjoy the corrected and updated Heroes' Feast script. To use this, just uncompress it and put it in your data/scr folder.
