I'm going to start dirges, also do we have a way to not start a recast until after a spell has ended/been cancelled? Will need to add that if not.

No we don't support recast after the spell ends.
Necro spells are done up to 20 to the best of my ability, I didn't do the roots, a buff, or the level 20 caster pet. I did collect the pet spells during CoE beta, are they hidden in the spell list somewhere or did they never get parsed? Also is there a way to edit npc's spell lists? at least create a list as we can add the list in LUA.

Did most of the Dirge spells level 1-20, following is a list of spells I couldn't script completely and what functionality they need:
*Shroud - I need to tweak stealth a bit so it will work better for spells, could script this now but want to do it right
*Daro's Dull Blade - requires flanking/behind mechanics
*Verlien's Keen of Despair - mit debuff is scripted, needs snare support
*Selo's Accelerando (speed buff) - scripted but speed needs to be added into spellbonuses for it to work properly
*Jael's Dreadful Deprivation (range attack) - need a way to consume ammo
*Evade - need a way to reduce hate

Are you saying the pet spells are not in the Spells list now from SOE API? If they are, there is a RAW button that will sync what we know about the spell with your raw data collects.
Your collected spell data is in a raw format, and is not included in this run of spells because (as I discovered) tons of shit seemed to change or be missing (ie., you only have tier 9 mostly due to the buffs in Beta). I don't want to push Raw spell data into the SOE data until we are 100% sure we need it, which is when you tell me SOE doesn't have it - but guaranteed it is in-game.

I glanced over the list quickly, late at night, will grab a spell name from a log later tonight and do a search

Grim Embrace is a pet spell (1189-NecroPetsSpells.log), this is a spell the necro's pet gets players do not get this spell, I could not find it on our list and it is not is SOE.DATA as far as I can tell, I tend to suck searching the API though.

I do not see any Spells from that log, just AA, Traits, Trainings. And I could not find Grim Embrace on SOE data either, probably because it's not a spell a player gets.

Even if Parser already had it, it would at least have found 1 unique, 0 new... so that packet is 100% exactly the same as a player-held spell? subtype, nothing is different? How does it look in Anal? Has to be a reason it got skipped.
How did you collect it, too? Curious only because of all the other spells that players don't get directly that we're going to have to invent.
I forgot to answer this:

Yes, NPC spell lists are in the editor as well, you just can't access that editor until I finish refactoring the spawn class.
The table is "spawn_npc_spells", if you wanted to build one locally and give me the SQL inserts later. It's a list_id (so multiple spawns can share 1 list), the spell ID and tier. Then you stick that list in the spawn_npcs table `spell_list_id` and you can even have a `secondary_spell_list_id`. Same with skills.

Necro's and Conj have a possess minion spell allowing you to take control of your pet, when you do your hotbar is wiped clear and all the spells the pet has is put on your hotbar. I just examined them from there for all levels and versions of the pet.
I don't have the opcodes for that version any more so I didn't use anal, manually looked it up. Will try to compare it with other spells to see if there is a difference in the examine.
LUA Tables
Posted: Mon Dec 09, 2013 8:28 pm
by thefoof
Gonna pitch an idea about something let me know some opinions
, so currently if an luaspell has > 1 target, you can't directly access the other targets. Obviously a few ways we could do this, I've read some stuff on LUA tables but not sure how complicated they are to use in scripts.
So if we didn't want to use tables another way we could do this would be, make a function to pull the size of a group, and run a while or for loop like we do in the server with another function to pull the spawn ->at(i). Example:
Code: Select all
local i = 0
while i < GetSpellTargetSize() do
spawn = GetSpellTargetAtIndex(i)
SomeFunction(spawn)
i = i+1
end
Just might be a little easier to read than lua tables, but I haven't used those so I'm not really sure. This isn't really something I have an immediate use for, but I'm sure we will at some point. I'm ok with either solution, would just like to know which would be the prefered method

GetGroup() returns a LUA table, or nil if not in a group, I have only had to use it once so far but here is an example
http://mmoemulators.com:9301/eq2db/edit ... ell_script
There are a few others that will also return a LUA table like GetHateList() and GetEncounterList(), I think there are others but can't remember off hand.
EDIT: This is just to show examples of how lua tables work

The next class I plan to work on are wardens, will take them 1-20. Going to work on them off and on though, adding some needed server support as well in the various areas we need it.
