My npc caster follow the target. I want them to stay at same position when they cast. How to do it?

At the same position when they cast 'x' spell or the entire time they are spawned? I assume the former. If it is the former you can set their flags to be frozen during spellcast possibly... and remove when the spell is done. I am sure there are other options that I am not thinking of at the moment since I am a bit preoccupied.

I would try to flag the npc as frozen, removing the flag as he finishes casting. It's a quick solution and even if the npc will appear as [paralyzed] I think it will not harm the "good looking" of the game.

E comunque ste cose puoi chiedermele direttamente su skype niubbone : D

My casters when they're paralyzed don't cast Big Grin

Try setting stamina = 0

Khaos · 03-25-2012 11:56 PM

Code:

on=@spellcast

local.stam=<src.stam>

stam=0

cast <argn1>

stam=<local.stam>

return

This isn't tested, but might work? That is based on CapObvious.

If that doesn't work I would do...

Code:

on=@spelleffect

tag.spellcast.stam=<src.stam>

serv.newitem=i_memory_caster_freeze, ,<uid>   // Bounce the item to caster

new.timer=<argn3>

stam=0

return 0    // Might not need this.

[itemdef i_memory_caster_freeze]

id=i_memory

name=freeze caster memory

on=@create

timer=-1   // This should get updated by the spellcast trigger

on=@timer

 cont.stam=<tag.spellcast.stam>

 cont.tag.spellcast.stam=

 remove

 return 1

Again, nothing to test in front of me. Ideas though Big Grin

I'd do it something like this way:

Code:

on=@spellcast

 tag.nomovetill = <eval <serv.spell.<argn1>.casttime>+<serv.time>>

 cast <argn1>

tag.nomovetill stops movement on every mobile until the timestamp in this tag

In the sphere.ini you should try to set this flag

// MAGICF_FREEZEONCAST = 0x0000020 // No movement whilst casting

MagicFlags=020

I tried with the stamina solution: well, it works BUT there is the automatic stats regeneration ruining everything xD

I tried the nomovetill too and it seems to work! (<eval <<serv.time> + 100> for a 10 second time "froz")

EDIT:
Hey this nomovetill really is a surprise! Thank you mr. SCO for the discover!
