Why is this question so often asked? It was just asked on the InXile forums as well. What would be the point?—what would be the benefit?

What kind of spell is it?
Does the spell create a projectile, and when it hits the door, you want the door to open?

Here is one way to do it:

Code: Select all

defineObject{
	name = "party",
	baseObject = "party",
	components = {
		{
			class = "Party",
			onCastSpell = function(self, champion, spell) print( spell:match("fireball") )
				if spell == "darkness" and
					true --substitute TRUE for your own condition to restrict the trigger.
				 then 
						tomb_door_stone_1.door:open() --triggered event.
				end
				return true
			end,
		}
	}
}

thank you, I'm going to look at that!

I added an onDamage hook to a monster and :getEvasion(), :getProtection(), etc work fine, but :getResistance() returns nil

resistances = {
	fire = "immune",
	cold = "immune",
	poison = "immune",
	shock = "absorb",
	physical = "immune"
},

The Air Elemental has resistances to all damage types:

Code: Select all

resistances = {
	fire = "immune",
	cold = "immune",
	poison = "immune",
	shock = "absorb",
	physical = "immune"
},

resistances = { ["poison"] = "weak" },

resistances = { poison = "immune" },

function onDamageMonster(self, damage, damageType)
	print(self:getResistance())
	print(self:getEvasion())
end

nil
-10

Here's the code (the hook calls this function):

Code: Select all

function onDamageMonster(self, damage, damageType)
	print(self:getResistance())
	print(self:getEvasion())
end

On a turtle that prints

Code: Select all

nil
-10

getResistance("fire")
getResistance("cold")
getResistance("poison")
getResistance("shock")
getResistance("physical")
