Buff and Debuff String List
|
Alright, I was considering having a window that will list detailed information about my current buffs and debuffs. Below is an example of the command word 'affect' in the game will display. I was hoping to gag it out, or move it to a different window for processing.
EX:
| Code: |
You are affected by the following spells:
Spell: globe of force modifies armor class by -320 for 16 hours
Spell: phase adds phasing defense permanently
Spell: fly modifies none by 0 for 16 hours
|
I was thinking maybe a variable string list would work. Although I am not sure exactly how to code it to have the information pulled off and each line being added to the list.
Spell: {@aff1} {adds|modifies} {@aff2} by {@aff3} for {@aff4}
<-- Not really code, just example.
Then I could have detailed information (Aff 1-4) listed in a seperate window and a short list of just aff1 in my side status window.
I don't really enjoy the thought of having to have 'affect 'periodically triggered and gagged to pull the information, but I can't really think of another way unless I just used the spell cast line...
EX:
You are surrounded by a globe of force!
and
Your globe of force disipates.
Unfortunately I can see that being really messy if I ever had to turn off triggers, and also I don't get an idea of how much longer they'll last.
I am doing this rather than just typing "affect" to see them is it is diffcult to maintain what buffs and debuffs you have when you are in some hideous combat spam and the affect list just whips right by... |
