Like a racial attack mod. 100% normal 90% - 10% less and 110- 10% more https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23348#p23348 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 19:02:44 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (dbna2) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23343#p23343 Assuming a straight linear scale, just look at what you want it to do. Assuming you're using integers.... int damage; int shield; shield = 100; damage = (int)((double)damage * ((double)shield / 100.0) ); That would increase damage based on the shield level, the opposite of what you want, but it's easy to see how the typecasting works here. You want to use floating point math to scale your damage, and 1.0 would be "normal". You cast it back to an integer to truncate it and make i https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23343#p23343 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 06:47:00 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Quixadhal) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23340#p23340 alright question. I want to add in something like a defensemod it would start out at 100% which is normal. lets say we add 10% so it would be 110% I want it to decrease the damage done to you by 10% lets say we subtract 10% making it 90% I want it to increase the damage done to you by 10% I know where I would put this for it to work. I just can't figure out the math part on it. Any help ? https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23340#p23340 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 19:24:03 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (dbna2) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23318#p23318 Here's the equivalent spot in WileyMUD's code: [code] /* * Find first non blank */ for (begin = 0; (*(argument + begin) == ' '); begin++); /* * Find length of first word * Order swapped by Quixadhal to fix say bug when using "'" */ if ((*(argument + begin) == '\'') || (*(argument + begin) == ':') || (*(argument + begin) == '\"') || (*(argument + begin) == ',') || (*(argument + begin) == '@')) look_at = begin + 1; https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23318#p23318 Mon, 7 Oct 2013 11:57:38 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Quixadhal) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23317#p23317 it matters and afterall it was designed to catch ' and treat it like a command, it use to be a command for say or chat lol been a long time so dont recall which right off. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23317#p23317 Mon, 7 Oct 2013 10:52:11 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23316#p23316 That doesn't make sense.... If you're typing "final shine" to try to use the skill "final shine", argument[0] *IS* alphabetic, so it won't enter that if statement. A better fix would be to set aside any skills that have spaces in their name and scan for those FIRST. [code] for( skillCheck = 0; skillCheck < multiwordSkillCount; skillCheck++ ) { if(strncasecmp(multiwordSkillName[skillCheck], argument, strlen(multiwordSkillName[skillCheck]) - 1) { // found skill, so make tha https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23316#p23316 Mon, 7 Oct 2013 06:53:56 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Quixadhal) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23307#p23307 thanks that worked perfectly :) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23307#p23307 Sun, 6 Oct 2013 14:09:54 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (dbna2) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23306#p23306 Ok here is the issue in interp.c find [code] /* * Grab the command word. * Special parsing so ' can be a command, also no spaces needed after punctuation. */ mudstrlcpy( logline, argument, sizeof( logline ) ); if( !isalpha( (int)argument[0] ) && !isdigit( (int)argument[0] ) ) { command[0] = argument[0]; command[1] = '\0'; argument++; while( isspace( (int)*argument ) ) argument++; } https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23306#p23306 Sun, 6 Oct 2013 13:06:48 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23305#p23305 Quixadhal its more or less the same lol :) Ok, so I just added two skills to my mud, final flash and final shine and of course not useable till after a hotboot and then final flash is 163 and final shine is 164. Slookup works fine to show both, but when using it seems it always uses the final shine. Since I made both skills and target self and affect hit by 5 I just added in hitchar messages to show a message for what skill it was. And you are right on the fact that it has no way to know for https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23305#p23305 Sun, 6 Oct 2013 12:57:31 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23298#p23298 appericiate it :) trying to get the game open for round 2 of player testing. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/need-some-help-4752/&p=23298#p23298 Sat, 5 Oct 2013 06:33:39 CDT Coding nobody@example.com (dbna2)
