How to adjust an attack to this part of body?
« on: February 18, 2008, 06:35:00 pm »
Hello,  I have:
code:

body_deon_races
[OBJECT:BODY]
[BODY:4FACE_TENTACLES]
[BP:TENTACLE1:first tentacle][CONTYPE:HEAD]
[LIMB]
[BP:TENTACLE2:second tentacle][CONTYPE:HEAD][LIMB]
[BP:TENTACLE3:third tentacle][CONTYPE:HEAD][LIMB]
[BP:TENTACLE4:fourth tentacle][CONTYPE:HEAD]
[LIMB]

And I try to use the attack:
code:

[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:4FACE_TENTACLES: pierce: pierces:1:4: PIERCE][ATTACKFLAG_WITH][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH][SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100]

But my creature ignores this attack and just punches... What's wrong?

Try using TENTACLE1 TENTACLE2 ect.  I think it uses the individual parts instead of the group name.

You can probably just use.

code:

[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:TENTACLE1:pierce:pierces:1:4:PIERCE][ATTACKFLAG_WITH][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH][SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100]
[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:TENTACLE2:pierce:pierces:1:4:PIERCE][ATTACKFLAG_WITH][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH][SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100]
[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:TENTACLE3:pierce:pierces:1:4:PIERCE][ATTACKFLAG_WITH][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH][SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100]
[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:TENTACLE4:pierce:pierces:1:4:PIERCE][ATTACKFLAG_WITH][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH][SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100]  

EDIT:nevermind the edit, misread second post.

BYTYPE:LIMB writes as I attack with head... I want to attack with tentacles.
Anyway, I have a solution - if i can't get it working, I'll just change it to "you sprout the mayor in the head with your head" -)

By the way, is there a way to increase crit. hit for limbs, not for weapon?

Currently you can only change the crit chance for weapons. No way with natural attacks yet.
