Do spells with edit files (like UnAngband) #69

Closed angband-import closed 4 years ago

angband-import commented 4 years ago

Reported by pmac on 22 Mar 2007 02:52 UTC There are a small number of genuinely diffent spell types. It would be nice to have edit files like UnAngband to specify spell levels, fail rates, and action. The current model (spells in p_class.txt in a mysterious order) makes it incredibly hard to add new spells.

process_spell_blows &c, with some modification to allow parse of damage, is the critical component, though some cleanup (making more tables) is needed.

Comment by pmac on 23 Apr 2007 02:38 UTC I'd like to see this get scheduled for the next engine/gameplay release (3.1.0?). The spell and object code is seriously flaky, especially now that Lua is out.

Comment by pmac on 23 Apr 2007 02:43 UTC (From tak's email) I would much rather have objects reference spells than I would have spells reference objects as they do now. Otherwise, the lists of numbers are pretty much meaningless to the casual observer.

Also use by-name rather than by-ID links if possible.

Comment by takkaria on 24 Apr 2007 22:33 UTC I think the payoff here is huge-- especially for mouse users. For example, if all items that provide identify can be programatically listed, then you could click on an un-ID'd item in the inventory and have "Identify" as an option.

Comment by takkaria on 14 Jul 2007 20:21 UTC I think that if the spells are moved to the effects.c framework, then that will do for 3.0.9. So, moving to "Future" again, for now.

Comment by takkaria on 5 Apr 2013 06:32 UTC I don't think this level of customisation is a great idea anymore unless you have a full-blown scripting language. So closing as wontfix.
