Increasing Nonlethal Damage

[direinsomniac]

As part of a conversion project I am working on, I am trying to write a script for a feat that increases the non-lethal damage done, but thus far, my attempts to identify the tag(s) that identify non-lethal damage have resulted in compilation errors.

This is the code I am working with:

if (parent.tagis[component.BaseWep] + parent.tagis[wSpecial.Nonlethal) <> 0 then
  #extradamage[parent, "+2 nonlethal",field[name].text]

I found the wSpecial using the debug tags feature on unarmed strike and a sap, two weapons I knew dealt nonlethal damage.

I run into two problems:
1) either wSpecial is a "Non-existent thing"

or

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

you need to search through items with a foreach loop, there is no parent on a feat so you can't transitions that way.

try

~ If we're disabled, do nothing
doneif (tagis[Helper.FtDisable] <> 0)

foreach pick in hero from BaseWep where "wSpecial.Nonlethal"
  #extradamage[eachpick, "+2 nonlethal", field[name].text]
nexteach

This is untested, but I believe it'll cover what you're trying to do.

Typed the code as you listed, it compiled fine. So I decided to test it out.

I set up a new hero and selected the feat, and then got this:

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

do you have anything else in the script or could that be coming from another script? Mine doesn't have anything to do with accessing parent picks.
