Do we have any way yet to make a spell effect message? Not so much a spell effect but a control effect. If you are have an NPC cast a spell and you are adding something like a stun effect, I want everyone in the area to know the mob is stunned. I see we can do a say, shout, ooc but nothing about general battle text.

Okay, I finally figured out my spell effects were not going to a window by default. Next issue, it says I am stunned instead of the enemy. We must have something wrong on the effect output. I did a quick test with a 30 second stun and the enemy remained stunned, although the message said I was the one that was stunned. Looking through the source though, I cannot seem to find where this is output to the client.

can you screen shoot the message on the client, i think i know where it comes from the screen shot will confirm that

is that scren shot on live or emu
the blue messages usually come from the spell effect in the spells table

Emu, not live.

Well yeah it probably would normally come from the spells table but since this is a an effect, like stun, there is no text in the database.

Also, one stun seems to generate two messages.

there is a bug i think i fixed and havent committed yet that was duplicating some of the message, the packet that sends the blue line update was getting sent twice,
