[WIP] Combined custom content thread

[SpacialKatana]

Nice thread, I've managed to cobble together a working staff that casts fireballs.

I'm having trouble however adding the baseDamageStat = "willpower" to my item. Any help appreciated Akroma22.

Code: Select all

defineObject{
   name = "staff_fireballs",
   baseObject = "base_item",
   components = {
      {
         class = "Model",
         model = "assets/models/items/acolyte_staff.fbx",
      },
      {
         class = "Item",
         uiName = "Staff of Fireballs",
         gfxIndex = 340,
         weight = 2.7,
         description = "A magical staff that radiates great power.",
      },
      {
         class = "CastSpell",
         spell = "fireball",
         cooldown = 3.0,
      },
    },
}

Thanks specialKatana, good to see you're still around

Here we have your Staff of Fireballs (using willpower as the damage bonus)

             	attackPower = 13,

             	swipe = "vertical",
             	attackSound = "swipe_special",
             	cooldown = 3.5,
             	baseDamageStat = "willpower",
             	damageType = "fire",
		causeCondition = "burning",
		conditionChance = 30,
             	requirements = {"light_weapons" ,1},
        },
        {
             	class = "CastSpell",
             	name = "fireBall",
		uiName = "Fireball",
             	charges = 9,
             	cooldown = 4.0,
             	energyCost = 30,
             	spell = "fireball",
             	requirements = { "fire_magic", 1},
        },
        }
    }

and here is a version that shoots multiple fireballs as a special attack
(although all fireballs follow the same trajectory.. have not got around to changing that yet)

        },
	{
             	class = "CastSpell",
             	name = "fireBall2",
		uiName = "Fireball",
		chainAction = "fireBall3",
		chainActionDelay = 0.3,
             	spell = "fireball",
        },
	{
             	class = "CastSpell",
             	name = "fireBall3",
		uiName = "Fireball",
             	spell = "fireball",
        },
        }
    }

EDIT - note this staff does not have a different icon for full/empty charges - if it did you would need to add emptyGfxIndex = (number) in the castSpell component.

Nice one cheers ! I couldn't resist the new outdoor areas now could I ?

Amma bit too busy workin' these days to get right back into scripting, but I'll surely make some nice stuff for my mod when the assets are released !

Stay frosty,

Sk.

[akroma222]

Haha no one can resist the outdoor areas!

A quick scripting question - and probably a simple silly one too
I am trying to use champion:getClass() to check the champs class when they equip an item... doesnt want to work!

SpoilerShow

Code: Select all

function assassinDaggerEquip(self, champion, slot)
	local name = champion:getName()
	if slot == 1 or slot == 2 then
		if champion:getClass() == "Fighter" then
			champion:trainSkill("critical", 1)
			hudPrint(""..name.."'s Critical skill increases by 1 level.")
		end
	end
end

Really not sure why this wouldnt be working... can anyone point out what Im doing wrong?
(works fine without the champion:getClass() business)

[cameronC]

when I call getClass it returns a lowercase "fighter" for me. You have it uppercase.

[akroma222]

Thank you cameronC! it is indeed 'fighter'

EDIT - updated Doridion's food/egg/water assets

[Drakkan]

please update snail and ice lizard monster
viewtopic.php?f=22&t=8104

[akroma222]

Thanks Drakkan, will add both monsters to the thread tomorrow ☺

[akroma222]

Lizards (Ice/fire/green/dark) have been added
Snails will be up soon
Daggers, Swords and Axes are done - just need to add scripted game effects for some of them and will then add them

Will certainly be using some of these.

I've got the scavenger up and running but at the moment the little freaks are making no sounds. The editor keeps telling me it can't find the wav.files.
