Spell Compendium Mod

Fixed internally, the fix requires a beta version of T+ as it uses the a new feature of Temple+ for the next version (spellPacket.target_count)

Did the zombies start their turn in the fog? Here is what my limited testing did show so far:
1. If you start your turn in the Acid Fog, movement is limited including zombies (spawned protos ID 14092 for testing purpose)
2. If you start your turn outside Acid Fog, no matter who it is and move/charge into the forg, your movement will not get hindered.
3. My testings show, that #2 is also true for vanilla Solid Fog

I am not sure how to fix this second issue right now.

If you want to use the first fix, you would need to use the latest Temple+ nightly (2674) version.
I attached the fixed version.

 

If you set TBSF_Movement2, then the game will treat it as if a 5-foot step has been taken, which prevents all other moves as well.

The way that setting TBSF_Movement works is that the game thinks you have decided on normal movement for the round, but haven't actually spent any of your move action time. This allows you to still run, or take a normal move, or a double move with your remaining time. But you cannot take a 5-foot step, because that is excluded by the other forms of movement. Each round you can either take a 5-foot step or move in some other fashion, but not both.

Edit: as for what @Shiningted mentioned, were the zombies starting from outside the fog? There's a pretty ubiquitous problem in ToEE where if you run into an effect that limits your movement, you can move as far as you would from the location you started as long as you do it as part of entering the area. If you can move fast enough, you can move all the way through an Entangle even if you fail the save. And you might be able to move all the way through a solid fog, because it won't recalculate the distance once you enter.

The only way I know to prevent this is to interrupt the animation. That's why Grease works; it interrupts by having the creature fall down. For my experimental Black Tentacles, I've been using the hit animation, but something else would probably be better. There just aren't many animations available from Python that I can see. Using the function that just interrupts an animation won't work. It seems to soft lock the game, because it's waiting for an animation to complete, but there's no animation going anymore.

 

Yeah noticed that too, dolio and switched back to TBSF_Movement.

 

@Sagenlicht, please also consider implementing these spells from SC:

• Touch of Madness†: Dazes one creature for 1 round/level.
  
• Bolts of Bedevilment†: One ray/round, dazes 1d3 rounds.

This is from Madness Domain from Elder Elemental Eye deity in RtToEE. Evil clerics NPC will use them against PC. Quite nice spells ))

 

Bolts of Bedevilment are already on my To Do List

I didn't plan to do Domain only spells (Bolts is also a Bard spell) but sure will do it

Would there be benefits in doing domain only spells in general? If yes, what domains?

 

Spells would suffice.

In zmod games npc do not have spells included as usual in protos. I created classes for npc spellcasting. Most spells are triggered via tactics manually. All ai is handmade.

Thank you!

 

@Sagenlicht
There is some benefit for domain-only spells. I'm a big fan of the Spell domain for (greater) anyspell, though, technically, the Initiate of Mystra feat gives these spells as regular spells known. (Rarely are spells only part of a domain.)

+1 to Madness domain spells for Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil!

 

I added Touch of Madness to my Draft Merge for the first bulk of spells of the Spell Compendium as the spell only uses sp-Daze as a condition on a failed will save and doesn't do anything else

Put it to good use @anatoliy

 

I noticed that Faith Healing cures 1d8 + 5max on same diety. Cure light wounds has the same numbers but has no such restrictions.

I'd suggest that Faith Healing is too redundant and would only be picked from a purely RP perspective in pnp. Imho it adds clutter for a new player and I couldn't see a practical reason to take it over clw.
_______________________________________________________

Hmm, I see that it might be a thing in the Blackguard list, which has no cure light wounds in some handbooks (googled)? ToEE Blackguard has clw, though.

 

As I noted on the Volunteers needed - beta testing next Temple+ release thread you appear to have misread the description of "Faith Healing" in the Spell Compendium.

The reason "Faith Healing" appears useless is that it hasn't been coded correctly

 

This was mentioned. Which would make sense.

However the spell description in-game is: Heal 1d8 + lvl (5) on same diety.

 

Good catch! Pinging Sagenlicht

BTW Sagenlicht note that I moved the spell compendium mes files to the new-style extension folders.

 

This might be fairly trivial, but imho the Blessed Aim description should say that it does not stack with bless.

The combat rolls state this, but it might help someone that is choosing a limited spell list, such as a favored soul. ToEE can be rather complicated in what does and does not stack and this info helps a newer player figure things out.

(There is quite a lot of this in ToEE...for example, iirc no morale or luck bonuses stack within that category. ie, heroism doesn't stack with bless and divine favor doesn't stack with prayer, etc etc. So there could be a lot of misunderstood "waste", if not noticed. While this may be the SRD rulebook gospel, many games modify that...and ToEE has so many rule book exceptions simply because it's a 2->3.5 port.)
