Adding Cure to Light Elemental

I tried to change the light elemental casting regen to cure by changing the spellID in the core from 108 to 2, however, the game crashes when the elemental begins casting (it never finishes)
Is there any reason why it crashes?

have you tried reading the message from visual studio when it crashes?

I'll post the error in a bit. Basically I was able to get past the first bit which was an issue with cure enmity not extending to the light spirit. There was a one line of code battle utils that called for a debug break if the user wasn't a player so I commented that out but now the crash happens due to something with a tree in the connect server so I'll post that.

When I debug, I get an Unhandled exception in Visual Studio
The failure points to xtree
Code: Select all
_Nodeptr& _Lmost() const
{ // return leftmost node in nonmutable tree
return (this->_Left(this->_Myhead));
The last line is where it failed

you'd want to check the call stack for a line that's actually in dsp's source instead of the STL, since it's more likely a fault of DSP's code than microsofts
also which exception is useful information as well

ah, that's why they don't cast cure then right now, because updateEnmityFromCure only processes if the *target* is a PC (instead of the caster, which it should be). So the pet goes into a function that expects a character, and pretty bad things happen. Interesting though, that also means that a player healing a pet generates zero enmity.
I'll change it in a bit, see what happens

Thanks worked like a charm. Now I can attempt to mess around with puppetmaster AI
