AoE Help

Post by Dello0000 » Sun Jun 15, 2014 3:00 am

Got a problem with mainly all the AoE's, got them to trigger fine and they have damage and all the rest BUT the caster seems to be hit when you use them, even with a min range of 1 (meaning it would exclude the caster given that the caster would be at 0 range?)

But yeah keeps hitting the player aswell as mobs.

Assault
I cant see it killing the server but it may have an incorrect tooltip. Muhahaha :twisted:

For testing purposes, could you change the target_type to Any and see what happens?

Any and Self have the same effect, still hits the player :\

I have a feeling I know the problem and will commit an attempted fix on my next commit. It's code side so it's not anything to do with how you have the spell filled out. Will hopefully have this committed in the next couple of days, been working on a rewrite of a complex area of code.

Nice one foof, i had tried the aoe's all ways but still wasn't working so i guessed it had something to do with the underlying mechanics.

Did you ever get the fix done?

AoE's still hit player, If you did "fix" it then its either the spell or the fix that's wrong, Couldn't we add some script code that we could put in?

effects caster = 1 (hits player)
effects caster = 0 (doesn't hit player)

Just a thought :)
