Question RE: Setting.lua

Post by Azalia » Tue Mar 05, 2013 12:21 pm

This might be the wrong forum and I apologize.

Playing around with my brothers on a server setup primarily for low man. Are the setting in the spell specific group supposed to work? I noticed a couple seem to ignore what I have set, example ENHANCING_SONG_DURATION.

Just an informational question. Thanks

it's up to individual spell scripters to remember to use those settings. i know cure power should work, but the rest i doubt. enhancing song duration i can guarantee doesn't work, since they aren't even handled in scripts right now

settings.lua is left over from when we used PXI's scripts waaaaay back in the day. A lot of it doesn't work anymore, and it really should be pruned or brought up to working condition.

As far as stuff like song duration, it's going to depend on how those are built. Some of the stuff those settings are supposed to influence are handled completely in the core, so it becomes a lot harder to apply them.

Really all you can do is start reading code/scripts until you figure out what is where. You probably can't get them all working in scripts anymore, though. Too many things have moved to the core.
