ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal :: View topic - Porting ToME2 to the T4 engine

I deleted the whole t2 module directly and redownloaded 2298 just to be sure, and I still got the Manathrust error. This is a Yeek Sorceror:

I was able to kill a unit using a Human Ranger using melee. However, previously I shot about 6 arrows or more at him and they all missed:

Btw: why is the Maia a blank slate, the same as the human? I thought the Maia were a lot more powerful than humans?

I haven't ever hit an enemy with an arrow yet, on any of my characters, until this latest SVN. Here is a save for a Human Ranger that misses (note that this one is named "player" - not sure if you can rename save directories):

What are the special abilities of LostSouls and Vampires? They don't have any stat boosts or reductions and no extra experience penalty.

Btw: arrows are picked up automatically when walking over them but only when they are the type that is currently in the quiver (ever since you first implemented Shoot Arrow). When they are not the type in the quiver, they do NOT get picked up automatically.

And as long as I'm in the neighborhood, a couple questions on the subject of archery:

It's been too long since I played an Archer in T2, so I don't remember this mechanic exactly: If you fire while your quiver is empty, the game prompts you to choose a stack of ammo from your inventory (I do remember that much). What I don't remember is whether the game also auto-wields the ammo you selected into the quiver. [For that matter, whether it does or not, should I implement that in the module?

I haven't yet implemented the "=g" inscription to auto-pickup an object, which is a significant QoL feature for archers with fired ammo scattered all over the floor. My current idea for a stopgap is to put a temporary auto_pickup flag on any ammo that you fire, and clear it when you pick it back up. Suitable?

Yes, I think so. It makes sense, and it is not a big departure from possible original implementation.

Yes.

Btw: what is the advantage of being a Lost Soul character? Increased challenge? And how do you beat monsters that are 98 level when you are 1st level? Just avoid them? Or are there no or few monsters?

This is an error caused (I think) by using a nether spell against an immune target.

Also, the wights quest in Bree is giving an error when you try to start it:

Trying to put something in the Mathom-house in Bree:

Not sure if you've finished implementing the wights quest - I completed the bandits quest in my game and wasn't able to start the wights quest, now when I load my game I get this. You put an "," before the if on line 40992.

Have you finished creating the bree_wights quest?

What it did in my game (which I hadn't reloaded up until now) was replace the entrance to the barrow downs with a quest entrance, and then when I entered there was nothing, not even look worked.

I am now on L5 of the Barrowdowns, but the princess quest didn't create correctly, so there may not be an exit to the next level (since the princess quest blocks all other down exits).

Is it possible for you to edit the savegame so there is an exit, if the princess setup got to the point of blocking exit creation?

Also, an error when I tried to use a skill (spell I think):

No, the quest does not show up. I killed the guardian of the princess room but there was no princess.

A If I have to restart the game, so be it.

What I'll do is, since I have 98 chosen for number of quests, is save the game before I go down a level, so if the princess quest is chosen and doesn't create correctly, I can get you information, and then load the save from before I went down a level until you've managed to fix the bug.

Maybe the room was created too near to the starting point of Level 5 Barrow-downs? I could have probably viewed the princess from the starting point if the wall had not been there.

So I used the lua console (which is Ctrl-L rather than Alt-L by the way)

to get to the sixth level of Barrow-downs, and I found some Crypt Creeps. Would they normally do 39 damage or more?

One of them tried to attack me and produced an error for trying to use their attack talent.

How far were you from the monsters you were shooting at? Archery to-hit chance decreases with distance. In the meantime, I've put in a few more debugging logs to better track values of interest. Steven Aus wrote: What are the special abilities of LostSouls and Vampires? They don't have any stat boosts or reductions and no extra experience penalty. Vampires aren't implemented yet, because in the original T2 code they're implemented in terms of corruptions, which I haven't touched yet — specifically, three vampiric corruptions that confer: A drain-blood talent that lets you feed off adjacent monsters, in exchange for no longer being able to eat food. +3 STR, +2 INT, +1 CON, -3 WIS, -2 DEX, -4 CHA. Resist cold, poison, darkness and nether and hold life, in exchange for vulnerability to light. The idea, apparently, is that if you managed to collect all three corruptions separately, you'd be switched to the Vampire subrace. Lost Souls are "dead" characters that have to fight their way out of the Halls of Mandos to return to "life" and proceed with the rest of the game. Specifically, they start at level 98 of Mandos, and have to fight their way up to and out through level 1. Think of it as power-diving Dreadfell at level one, cranked up to eleven. To compensate a bit, all levels of Mandos are fully lit, and the player starts with big stacks of Scrolls of Identify and Satisfy Hunger and temporary wraith form (ability to pass through walls) while in Mandos. Needless to say, none of this is implemented yet either. Steven Aus wrote: Btw: arrows are picked up automatically when walking over them but only when they are the type that is currently in the quiver (ever since you first implemented Shoot Arrow). When they are not the type in the quiver, they do NOT get picked up automatically. Yes, that's the current implementation, which is less than ideal for exactly the reason you describe, hence my proposed changes.

Or are there no or few monsters? It's not level scaled and there are a handful of monster types that you can kill at level 1 with some classes for absurd XP. IIRC, you can hit level 15 or so off of a dragonfly. Death Mold powers also made getting out trivial. If you were willing to put up with their horrible movement you could pretty consistently at least grab all the important dungeon spell books before surfacing. Exploring the wilderness for them was a common power leveling tactic for normal characters as well. If you were less of a munchkin or couldn't find a mountain tile with a walkable border nagas were another option for some classes and would give several levels if killed at level 1.

Please stop hitting yourself, it was an easy mistake to make. And it was easy to fix too. Regarding the wights quest, I'll check it again. I guess I could have gone to the wrong entrance. No, the quest does not show up. I killed the guardian of the princess room but there was no princess. If I have to restart the game, so be it.

How could it have ended up without a princess, though? Steven Aus wrote: A If I have to restart the game, so be it.
