Domain pre-requisite

[bodrin]

I have a class special that requires a specific Diety and certain Domains as a pre-req. The #hasdeity[XXXXX]<>0 macro works spiffingly well however It would appear that Domain pre-requisites are an anomaly.

I tried #hasdomain[cdEvil] <> 0 but received a right side expression parsing error, presumably there isn't a has domain macro?

and then this script

~ Start out invalid
    @valid = 0

    ~ Check for Evil or Law Domain

    if (hero.childfound[HasDomain.cdEvil] <> 0) then

      ~ If so, we're valid.
      @valid = 1
      else
     
    if (hero.childfound[HasDomain.cdLaw] <> 0) then

      ~ If so, we're valid.
      @valid = 1
      endif
     endif

Error message below

Syntax error in 'pre-requisite rule' script for Thing 'arWoWUnBar' on line 6
  -> Non-existent thing 'HasDomain' used by script

I referred to the hero fields and noticed that adding and removing domains altered the fields to HasAbility.cdEvil cdLaw respectively so I tried

if (hero.childfound[HasAbility.cdEvil] <> 0) which also didn't compile.

Exactly how can this be done??

Looking through the existing data I'm seeing a text placeholder stating script required (Ultimate Magic - Warrior Priest) or a huge search expression chooser that cycles through anything that grants a Domain ability (Domain Strike - Ultimate Combat) and allows the user to select a domain ability to apply effects to.

Edit: #hasability[cdLaw] <> 0 does work.

Checking for a Specific Domain

Nevermind this worked.

~ Check for Evil or Law domain
 @valid = 0

  if (#hasability[cdLaw] <> 0) then
   @valid = 1
    else

  if (#hasability[cdEvil] <> 0) then
   @valid = 1
    endif
   endif

  if (#hasability[cdLaw] <> 0) then
   @valid = 1
    else

  if (#hasability[cdEvil] <> 0) then
   @valid = 1
    endif
   endif

Just an FYI you could make this all one line of code:

~ We are valid if we have the Law or Evil Domain
validif (#hasability[cdLaw] + #hasability[cdEvil] <> 0)

Also you could then put this on the Pre-Req section:

#hasability[cdLaw] + #hasability[cdEvil] <> 0

It was a very quick eureka moment when I spotted a domain ability could be tested with the #hasability macro a quick copy / paste duplicate was all I could spare before heading off to RL work.

Code tidying usually falls by the wayside once something is working as it should, but thanks for the pointer.

Yea no problem. I also wanted it for future readers. What you find is that about 90% of stuff can be tested with #hasability[] macro. Class Abilities, Racial Abilities, and I am pretty sure Custom Abilities also. Actually really nice as its a one stop macro instead of needing a specific one for each class or race.
