Spec Ranger/ Hitscript

Hi, I cant figure out what I´m doing wrong..
I´m trying to add more dmgs for spec rangers when they are using a bow.
But it wont work...

This is what I have done:

[This is my hitscript.inc file and Im using Pol095]

Quote:

function ModByDist( attacker, defender, weapon, basedamage )

if( weapon.skillid == SKILLID_ARCHERY )

basedamage := basedamage
* ((attacker.dexterity + 0) * 0)
/ (((attacker.strength + 0.0)) / 10.0);

var dist := Distance( attacker, defender );
if( (dist <1> 10) )
basedamage := basedamage * 0.25;
endif

else
var level := GetObjProperty( attacker, CLASSEID_RANGER );
if( level )

basedamage := basedamage * ClasseBonusByLevel( level );
endif
endif
return basedamage;

endfunction

Could sure need some help, thx..

I could be wrong, but the skillIDs are removed in POL95, instead of:

if( weapon.skillid == SKILLID_ARCHERY )

you should use:

if (weapon.attribute == "Archery")

I have tried skillIDs and attribute, but it makes no different

http://docs.polserver.com/pol096/objref.php#Weapon

.attribute is a string return, not int.

Code:

if ( weapon.attribute == "Archery" )

There I changed my script to ... :

[Still in hitscript.inc..]

Code:

function ModByDist( attacker, defender, weapon, basedamage )


   if( weapon.attribute == "ARCHERY" )


   var ranger  := GetObjProperty( attacker, CLASSEID_RANGER);
   var skill := GetEffectiveSkill( attacker, SKILLID_ARCHERY );
   var base  := CInt( basedamage * (attacker.dexterity + 0)/(attacker.strength)/10);

   if( ranger )
   basedamage := CInt( base * 40 * skill * ClasseBonus( attacker, CLASSEID_RANGER ) );
            
      var dist := Distance( attacker, defender );
           if( (dist <1> 10) )
           basedamage := basedamage * 0.25;
   endif
endif
            
      else

         basedamage := CInt( basedamage * (attacker.dexterity + 0)/(attacker.strength)/10);

         var dist := Distance( attacker, defender );
              if( (dist <1> 10) )
              basedamage := basedamage * 0.25;
         endif
      endif



   return basedamage;


endfunction

But Ranger do the same dmg as anyone else..

Gah! really need some help on this one

change

Code:

if( weapon.attribute == "ARCHERY" )

to

Code:

if( lower(weapon.attribute) == "archery" )

You should debug the code, starting from very basics.

Try replacing this:

Code:

if( weapon.attribute == "ARCHERY" )
   var ranger  := GetObjProperty( attacker, CLASSEID_RANGER);
   var skill := GetEffectiveSkill( attacker, SKILLID_ARCHERY );
   var base  := CInt( basedamage * (attacker.dexterity + 0)/(attacker.strength)/10);

   if( ranger )
   basedamage := CInt( base * 40 * skill * ClasseBonus( attacker, CLASSEID_RANGER ) );
            
      var dist := Distance( attacker, defender );
           if( (dist <1> 10) )
           basedamage := basedamage * 0.25;
   endif
endif
else

With this:

Code:

if( lower(weapon.attribute) == "archery" )
   basedamage := basedamage * 5;
else

Piece by piece put the code back to track down the problem. (What's this "(dist <1> 10)" supposed to be?) Also put a SendSysMessage() in the end to report the damage.

Aha! thx for the tip, Im getting a bit closer to the source of the "error" now ^^
I really appreciate the help MuadDib and itec.

I will post my solution for this as soon as I´m finished.
I think ppl will have this error if they have downloaded the zhfa095 shard.
