Complex attacks

frumple

Well-known member
Is there a way to show what special attack and its damage are associated with an attack in the editor?

For example, a monster having a melee attack Tentacle (1d6+2 plus grab). Adding the natural tentacle attack with the damage is easy enough as is adding the Grab special ability. However is there a way to make sure that the display in the monster's weapon's tab has the grab associated with the tentacle attack?

While I am at it, is it possible to due the same with a variable damage, such as 1d6 fire or the like?
 
I have an addon that does exactly what you are asking about. You can either use it as is or dig apart the scripts to write your own evail scripts. Either way it should help you out. :)

See the Adjustments post for full info.
 
Thanks!

I implemented it as the follows:

FinalPhase, Priority 20500

hero.child[wTentacle].field[livename].text &= " + Grab"

This adds the "+ Grab" to the name of the attack. However, ideally it would be nice to see the "+ Grab" in the damage line vs. the attack name.
 
You can also go to the bootstrap for the ability and to the field tab.

First Column enter: livename

second column enter the name as you want to see it appears for example:
Tentacle (plus 1d6 fire, plus grab)
