The Broken Script

From NWN1 Custom Content Guide

Jump to: navigation, search

This is a list of Broken or Misunderstood Scripting functions. This will never appear in the Lexicon (apart from the Known Bugs section of functions) because it is likely to be sometimes inaccurate or, well, Misunderstood. Each section details the latest known version with that issue. For information on the latest patch see the Bioware Patch Page.

[edit] Patch 1.69

Untested.

[edit] Patch 1.65

[edit] Unresolved broken functions

TalentSpell, TalentFeat and TalentSkill 
Do not work correctly. These won't work - basically - at all, to my knowledge. They can be tested, but the actions to use them fail. Items are never returned by these either, even though GetCreatureTalentBest() can at least return Scrolls Rods and Wands to cast spells!
ActionUseSkill 
Doesn't work with setting traps. PC's can set traps, NPC's cannot. Might be intentional and permanent.

[edit] Resolved broken functions

CalcNumberOfAttacks 
Found in nw_i0_spells. Resolution: Function no longer used, new coded embeded in divine power spell script which makes use of new GetBaseAttackBonus() function.
ResistSpell 
Problems with sub-dial-spells, monster abilties, domain spells, and other problems with stuff have been mainly resolved and shouldn't be present (it should always work correctly).

[edit] Misunderstood Functions

Example
Are there any misunderstood functions anyone can think of?
