Apply effect to target not just area #51

bushibot commented 4 years ago

Might be an enhancement request, I can't quite tell what the behavior should be. When casting a spell effect such as breath weapon the effect goes around targeted mobs rather then being applied to them. I would expect the effect to be applied to them or at least applied on hit (myql)? Apologies if this is as intended, but it doesn't quite convey the right effect IMO. Also if you could mix spell effect and targeted effect you can get some great looks like noted in expected image. Example pic vs. expected. expectedeffect

Hi @bushibot ! This kind of automation is not really the domain of TMFX. TMFX allows effects to be applied on a lot of placeables (and expose a programming interface for other modules), but for the "when" and "how", it's the domain of automation modules. I'm not sure that there is currently a module that allows you to automate what you are describing. I advise you to go to discord and ask the question. I know that Dynamic Effect automates a lot of things, but regarding templates ... I'm not sure. But I may be wrong.
