Na I practiced with it during testing never got a bug message. If you use slookup fireball its damage type should be set to fire. It could be the damage type on the weapon is wrong also. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22366#p22366 Mon, 9 Apr 2012 10:50:14 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22365#p22365 This worked, now i need to track down the bad dt message i get evertime fireball message i get a bug message: Bugs: [*****] BUG: dam_message: bad dt 1011 from Snoopy in 9371. I am betting its a issue with that its a area effect spell. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22365#p22365 Mon, 9 Apr 2012 08:31:40 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Sherm) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22363#p22363 Cool I will work on this today and see if it fixes this for me.

[55] [/quote] The first comes from magic.cpp function spell_area_attack, the last two are from fight.cpp dam_message. In energy blast it doesn't use spell_area_attack so it doesn't get the first one. While it does get the last two in dam_message it contains a $N. So lets take a look in act_comm.cpp function act_string [code] // No $ token in the s https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22361#p22361 Wed, 4 Apr 2012 20:49:41 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22360#p22360 Ok, if not answered before this evening ill look into it https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22360#p22360 Tue, 3 Apr 2012 11:53:33 CDT AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/weaponspell-display-issue-with-fireball-4644/&p=22359#p22359 still getting: Bugs: [*****] BUG: dam_message: bad dt 1011 from Snoopy in 9371.
