a spell launched by the dungeon?

[pulpum]

I wonder if it's possible to cast a spell as the party enters somewhere, like darkness, for example... it could be a cool effect, like some wind turns off all torchs... and how can I make "light" spell forbidden, to make it worse.... any ideas?

maybe with a spawn object for darkness?

You could use the onCastSpell hook, cancel the light spell & print a message "hahah your worthless magic won't help you now!"

Or would it be possible to make the light spell last shorter time? Something like 15-30 seconds, to make torches more needful.. (ok I know, that sounds pretty unfair )

I created a script in my dungeon that randomly blows out all the party's active torches.

it checks for equipped torches and then replaces them with an extinguished torch item. It's attached to a timer and and has a chance to trigger on each interval so it can't be easily predicted by the players.
