Sagenlicht Beta: Draconic Feats and more

That was actually a huge oversight on my part, ty for catching that one Pygmy. Fixed (and for that matter I also fixed the "normal" orb spells as well)

The latest push also contains the spell Evard's Black Tentacles for Sor/Wiz and Warmages.

It kinda fully works, it's just not "pretty" and requires some rework "under the hood". But I do know that some people are really like to see that spell in action so here we go.

@_doug_ and @Sitra Achara: I do not know if it is possible to add a get_spell_obj to the tpdp.SpellPacket, but if it is possible and not too much work that would be a nice thing to have

@Joe Clark II
The confirm critical issue as well as the missing logbook entry should be fixed in the lasted push:

Awesome.

 

Did more work on spell_utils, it's getting closer to where I want it to be. It basically is handling close to all spell standard stuff now.

I've updated exiting already merged spells to test this more and also started to merge more spells from the Spell Compendium into this beta

Newly added spells:

• Distort Speech
• Distract
• Insidious Rhythm
• Master's Touch
• Distract Assailant
• Lightfoot
• Bonefiddle
• Harmonic Chorus
• Bladeweave
• Fell the Greatest Foe
• Veil of Shadow
• Haunting Tune PSA: This might crash your game!!!!
• Love's Lament
• Ray of Dizziness
• Wounding Whispers
• Dirge of Discord
• Resonating Bolt (I must have missed that spell for the original SC merge somehow it's a simply damage spell)

Again PSA: Haunting Tune might crash your game, it does mine for unkown reasons to me. If I move the spell the overrides folder, the game does not crash, but if I use the tpgamefiles.dat version my game crashes, though the files are 100% the same...

Will investigate, please let me know if it crashes your game as well (obviously save the game before you try it )

Small Push today.

New merged spells:

• Phantom Threat
• Phantom Foe
• Acid Fog*

Acid Fog replaces the old Acid Fog, that uses spell_enum 0. This was discussed in a different threat, and I did add an old version of my acid fog to that threat. Now that I started to merge my other spells to this beta, I included that (now updated) spell in the beta here as well and also did remove the old acid fog using spell_enum 0 from kotbfixes and co8infra.

@Shiningted I do not know if you are interested in this beta stuff of mine, but if you do, I am sorry that it took me so long to actually merge the Acid Fog spell into the beta. Should have done that earlier for sure.

The easiest answer to this might be this:

If the spell is listed there, it is either already merged into the T+ beta, merged into T+ and my beta or in the process 0f being merged into my beta.

Once this is finished (I hope the merge process is done by end of next week), I will start resume adding more spells from the Spell Compendium Once the spell compendium is done, spells from other sources like PHBII or Complete Arcane are next. Also I will take a look on the necro spells we discussed last year. I have not forgotten about them. It's just that controlling npc's is actually something, I do not fully understand to this point. A spell I really wish to get finished for example is Fugue (a SC spell), that has a chance of letting someone attack the closest target. I've not been able to get that effect to work yet

Though this plan might get interrupted by adding a new class etc, as this is not my work. If I think it's time for a break on spells, I just do something different, like a feat or a class

Anyways, if you want me to do specific spells, just tell me your wishes, it does not really matter to me what spells I do next, as long as they are doable within my knowledge, I'll do them.

And doing a spell is actually not that much of a work anymore, now that I've nearly finished my work on spell_utils.

EDIT: Forgot link to new version: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/templeplus/templeplus/builds/42594923/artifacts

 

The only spell I allow in my PnP games - Revivify is not here))

 

Yup I initially stopped doing more spells at Cleric spell level 3, but I will continue doing so once I completed the merge. So Revivify will eventually make its way to ToEE

Speaking of the merge, new push, containing following spells:

• Wraithstrike
• Find the Gap
• Summon Undead I - V *
• Righteous Fury
• Grace
• Aid, Mass
• Rhino's Rush *

* Summon Undead spells might be not well balanced, I just used what I found in the protos. I personally will not add new entries to the protos.tab, but if someone wants to add a few more undead I can adjust the spells.

* Rhino's Rush is missing from the above list, you may have noticed a few holes (if you use the numeric sortet list). Rhino's Rush is one of those holes. Anyways I think I used a pretty good workaround to get the spell doing what it should without touching the normal damage routine.

I am aware, that Rhino's Rush is a pretty nifty level 1 spell, but at least you can't go crazy in ToEE with that spell, there are no lances nor horses, so no ridiculous charges

You can do it without changing protos:

SUMMON UNDEAD LISTS
Summon Undead I:
Human warrior skeleton (MM 226), kobold zombie (MM 266)

Summon Undead II:
Owlbear skeleton (MM 226), bugbear zombie (MM 267)

Summon Undead III:
Ghoul (MM 118), troll skeleton (MM 227), ogre zombie (MM 267)

Summon Undead IV:
Allip (MM 10), ghast (MM 119), wyvern zombie (MM 267)

Summon Undead V:
Mummy (MM 190), shadow (MM 221), vampire spawn (MM 253), wight (MM 255)

Obviously, this can't be done 1:1 but I've got the feeling, that my choices might be a bit underwhelming, for the level you could cast them.

 

Ogre zombie is somewhat on par with Brown Bear (Summon Nature's Ally III). OZ has damage reduction which is great as canon meat, and BB has Improved Grab.

But Owlbear Skeleton is much better that Black Bear (SNA II) so I would not say it's underwhelming.

 

Heh, maybe I did not understand the question of @Shiningted correctly, the above list is what the Summons should be accordingly to the Spell Compendium.

Here are the protos I did use:
Summon Undead I:
14107 (Skeleton)

Summon II:
One of 14081(Gnoll Skeleton) or 14092(Zombie 2HD) or two of Summon Undead I

Summon Undead III:
One of 14128(Ghoul) or 14602(Skeleton Guard), two of Summon Undead II or four of Summon Undead I

Summon Undead IV:
One of 14135(Ghast) or 14821(Greater Temple Bugbear Zombie) or two of Summon Undead III or four of Summon Undead II or less

Summon Undead V:
One of 14828(Shadow) or 14954(Wight) or two of Undead Summon IV or four of Summon Undead III or less

Also keep in mind that the monster in the protos are sometimes not 100% identical to the MM entry (at least that's my impression)

Thanks for the link to your work anatoliy, I like the idea It's just I do not have access to it in T+

EDIT: Do you have a similar code for items/weapons?
