Granting Darkvision via weapon

AndrewD2

Well-known member
I've got a weapon that grants darkvision, I have the condition set as fieldval:gIsEquip <> 0 and I've tried timing from 496 (earliest possible for gIsEquip) to 660 (the timing on the Belt of Dwarven Kind)

The belt of dwarven kind works, the weapon does not. I also found the rod of the river serpent which is supposed to grant darkvsion and does not appear to, so it seems to be a bug in weapons granting it the bootstrapped item.

I've also tried using gIsUserEquip with no success. Lastly (and this is the biggy) I tried boostrapping it with NO condition and darkvision does not show. I reported a bug with the rod of the river serpent already, just wondering if anyone else has noticed this same thing, and if you haven't had a problem, how'd you get it to work?

Are you bootstrapping the darkvision from the weapon itself, or is the bootstrap within the gizmo?

Do you have "Available when Equipped" checked on the weapon?

To see the difference between gIsEquip and gUserEquip, and why you should always test gIsEquip, create a synthesist summoner, purchase and equip some armor, and then look at that armor's fields before and after you turn on the Fused Eidolon ability.
 
I've bootstrapped it to both the weapon and the gizmo during testing, I've used "Avaialble When Equipped" and not used it, under no circumstance does raDarkVis appear on the character.
 
The rod of the river serpent has two problems:
1) It was missing the "Available when equipped" checkbox.
2) Its bootstrap condition was testing an Alignment tag, as well as the gIsEquip field, and no alignment tags have been added to the hero at the time it was testing it.

Fixing those makes the darkvision on the rod of the river serpent work.
 
Huh, I guess I tried the "Available When Equipped" tag but only when it was on the gizmo, as soon as I put it back on the weapon it worked, thanks. Now to figure out how to double someone's darkvision if they already have it.
