Updating info of item - Jhobean - 08-24-2019 11:03 PM

Hi,
We have a "problem" on our 56d shard. On our last shard 55i, when we changed the specification of an item for exemple dmg=30-40. All this type of sword was automaticaly updated.

Now, on 56d the only way we found to update the item is to recreate it or ajust it manually. This "non-update" of item is a bug?
Thx

You can create a script to adjust all same items in the world otherwise you need to recreate them Sad

I don't remember exactly how it works, but I think old sphere builds read the DAM value directly from the itemdef, so changing the DAM value directly on the script will change it on all created weapons, and there's no way to change it individually on just some few weapons already created

But on sphere 56c this got changed and now weapon items have their own DAM value instead inherit the DAM value from the itemdef base, making weapons more customizable since now you can change the DAM value individually on each weapon. So if you change DAM value on itemdef, new weapons created after this will use this new value but weapons already created will stay using the previous value

But anyway if you want update the DAM value on the itemdef and also update all weapons already created, you can use this simple script
Code:
[FUNCTION UpdateWeaponsDam]
// Usage: UpdateWeaponsDam i_weapon_to_be_updated
FORINSTANCES <ARGS>
   DAM=<SERV.ITEMDEF.<ARGS>.DAM>
ENDFOR

Thx for your fast answer and your help.

I imagine it's the same patern for all itemdef. Weight, armor, value etc.
