Re: [In progress] Deathwatch beetles
Updated...
Confuzzling "points" resolved .. its 15 mana!
Almost totally re-written, "borrowed" code removed and recoded as it was the biggest "messy" of them all... The SpillAcid() function is basecreature was also rewritten since it was part of the issue... poolofacid cleaned up and partially rewritten.... PoolOfAcid is configurable still, and will be used for more mobs as the ML creatures are put into play.
DWB is the same. Its only a half dozen lines of code, and to be honest, I can NOT find a better way to do this unless we want MORE code... there simply is no mechanism to override the mana cost of special moves for monsters that I can find - if anyone sees something Im missing, feel free to say so.
DWB-hatchlings went in already so they are removed from this patch.
I have merged DWB, hatchling, and kappa into one patch, since I had to go back and change the resources now on all 3 of them and its easier for those testing to just apply a single patch.
DWB:
- crushing blow attack fixed
- cb attack uses 15 mana
- cb particles fixed.
- now spits poison
- regular poison
- dwb's are now non-aggressive.
- 8 plain leather when cut (9 for humans) Was feathers and meat.
DWB Hatchling:
- also passive.
- 8 plain leather when cut (9 for humans)
Kappas:
- kappa's life leech now does AoS energy damage (was phys)
- the acid slime does poison damage 5-10hp/sec @ 0 resist.
- increased chance of life drain attack, to be more like OSI behavior
- now consume 15 mana performing their life drain attack
- now spawn with 30 mana as per OSI
- once below ~100 health, chance of tossing a slime when damaged
- slime has 50/50 chance of landing under the attacker or the kappa
- slime dumping costs 15 mana if at 15 mana or more
- random-dumps 3-4 acidic slimes upon death
- slimes last 10 seconds and do 2-5 dmg/second whilst standing on it
- no resources when cut. Was leather
other
- fixed minor bug in PoolOfAcid which prevented their drying effect
- PoolOfAcid improved to be configurable for AoS damage.
The below patch updated on Aug 3, 2009.

Re: [Code Posted] Deathwatch beetles
As far as I have tested:
- dwb are not aggressive, but what in tier 2 tokuno champ? With this patch, also there they are not aggressive.
- What about dwb hatchings? They still remain aggressive.
And some questions:
- is the poison spit a melee attack? Or it should be ranged?
- I see you used public override void AlterMeleeDamageTo( Mobile to, ref int damage ). Looks like you wrote crushing attack exclusively for that mobile, instead to use crushing blow. Does the weapon ability crushing blow need changing instead of changing it just for this creature?
That's all for now

Re: [Code Posted] Deathwatch beetles
yes, passive in sleeping dragon spawn
hatchlings are different mobile, but probably need changed too
yes, its ranged, triggered by damaging the beetle
override. yes, crushingblow needs it particles changed, but Ive got that in a different thread. I create a crushingblow attack in AlterMeleeDamageTo() because of a mana problem. The base mana for crushingblow is 25, but DWB only have 20, and only use 15 for the attack. Unless I do something stupid like give the DWB a LMC item, the usual GetWeaponAbility() override wont work. This is the reason his CrushingBlow attack did not work from the start.

Re: [TESTING] Deathwatch beetles
daed - did you get your original concerns taken care of? If that is the case, then we have 2 testers confirmed its ok to move and go to ready. Let me know and I can get the status changed and moved to the ready forum.

Re: [TESTING] Deathwatch beetles
Since there is not a reference one to either of them ever being changed anywhere, I left the hatchlings SE based on my best understanding. I will check with the same authority that told me to make the daddies Core.ML before it gets moved.

Re: [TESTING] Deathwatch beetles
OK sorry i misunderstood but these hatchlings were never aggressive.When the SE expansion came out and you went through the moongate and followed the path and took the one that led you to the Sleeping Dragon Champ and lagged up because there was about 954785102 hatchlings on your screen not 1 attacked you.
SRC Xavier;590622 said:Yuh, they're non-aggressive now. The question is WHEN they became that way. There is zero documentation anywhere about that, we only have psz's memory to go by here.
Scared yet?

Re: [TESTING] Deathwatch beetles
LOL OK I don't doubt what you have done not one bit but I tried and this is the best that I could come up with. Also where are the hides here on Demise?On OSI humans get 9 hides regular leather.

Re: [TESTING] Deathwatch beetles
There will be no consensus it seems, except that my changes are accurate by how OSI is now ... and theres zero documentation about them ... and they were initially spawned on demise as hostile ....
ok. They are both ML-passive, SE-aggressive. Unless I am explicitly told otherwise by powers to be, I leave my patches as is.
