Magic Weapon that bestows negative levels error!

Okay i've got a Bastard Sword that i'm entering into the editor which is causing me a problem.

{i}+2 keen flaming bastard sword{/i} is made from a solid piece of jagged black stone.

Easy right? Bootstrap the Keen, Flaming, and Stone to the Bastard Sword add the correct numbers and its good to go.

However,

{B}The sword is very evil, and any good character that wields it gains two negative levels.{/b}

Ahh, I thought, i'll copy the code from the Unholy Power and change the number to 2 that should work..

Code:

~ If the hero is Good, and we're equipped, add 2 negative levels

      doneif (hero.tagis[Alignment.Good] = 0)



      if (parent.tagis[component.BaseWep] <> 0) then

        doneif (parent.field[gIsEquip].value + parent.field[wIs2nd].value = 0)

      else

        doneif (parent.field[gIsEquip].value = 0)

        endif



      herofield[tNegLevel].value += 2

HTML Code:

Attempt to access non-existent parent pick for a top-level container from script

- - -

Attempt to access non-existent parent pick for a top-level container from script

Whats going wrong?? I presume it's the Parent.field which is causing the problem.

How do I transition to the weapon if the parent.field isn't the correct method?:confused:

Never mind Scepter of Heaven script works

Code:

~ Assign negative levels based on alignment

      doneif (field[gIsEquip].value + field[wIs2nd].value = 0)



      if (hero.tagis[Alignment.Good] <> 0) then

        herofield[tNegLevel].value += 2

        endif

:rolleyes:

As your a specific magic weapon you don't have a "parent.container" as their is no "Gizmo" involved. When its a Power it has to transition from itself up to the parent and then the container which is the Gizmo.

So you notice how in your fixed script field[gIsEquip].value does NOT contain the parent.container. As your just checking yourself...
