[nerp]

When did your problem start?

unknown

Character Role?

1. Assist

What class is having this issue?

1. Enchanter

How often does this issue occur?

Always

Can you reproduce the issue?

yes

I've had this problem for a while. Enchanter will only do first mez casts and stops, stick or fail. I've poked through the code and i think we're not getting a return for CAST_RESIST's from MQ2Cast. The format may have changed from "Your target resisted the#*#spell#*#" to "<Mob name> has resisted your <spell name>!" when they did all the other combat format changes.

#Event CAST_RESISTED "Your target resisted the #1# spell#*#"

I think you're exactly right, you can open kissassist.mac and replace that line with

#Event CAST_RESISTED "#*# has resisted your #1# spell#*#"

 

[nerp]

almost, it needed to be:

#Event CAST_RESISTED "#*# has resisted your #1##*#"

@Redbot this seems like a pretty key mod. Do you guys parse these threads somehow to pull in these kinds of required changes into the base kissassist file?

@ctaylor22 looks like this belongs in an update


@Sum1, no, but we should set up some sort of process to do this. Any suggestions?

I always just assumed that when people tossed up these issue threads and members suggested edits to fix the issues they were experiencing that there was some formal scrub or screening process to ensure those changes made it into the core kissassist or were evaluated by @ctaylor22 and purposefully omitted for some reason.

I'd have to think about whether or not there's a way to formally catch all this stuff without making a few of the coders scrub through all of the posts (which would be a bit ridiculous). In the military, we use a line-in, line-out process to recommend changes to documents, but its not particularly elegant.... just an excel spreadsheet.

It has been added to my current personal version of KISS, so I am sure Maskoi has it as well. Just a side note, there was also a change when your character resists a spell, that needs to be added.

I will see if I can add in those 2 changes and post an update later today.

This has not been tested for errors. I am not able to test this at the moment. I added in the bard casting fix, the additional events, and some AA trigger duration code.

As always make a copy of your current kissassist.mac file before downloading and running this copy.
