stunning kills

[bigfoot]

I've been running some berserkers and when I use some stunning attack and then kill them, both Bill and the Shade of Angmar do not drop anything.

[LOG] #00ff00#Talent Stunning Blow is ready to use.

Just a small part of my current char's huge file. I hope that this contains the error (which it does mention a lua error).

[Canderel]

LOL@ Mr T for a beserker... Soz, can't help much with the lua/logfile...

My guess is that you've come to the trollshaws a bit later? Ie. You've completed some other quests? I dunno but maybe if you've completed the second "Go search the XX to see what lurks there and what treasures you can gain".

[Canderel]

I am pretty certain the code to "unconstrict" all constricted victems of a constrictor should go in Actor.lua -> function _M:die(src)

But the problem is, in death there is a src, but not sure if there is a constriction victems... Ie. If the constrictor is constricting my summoned unit, and I kill it, I think it's easy to remove constrictions from myself, but removing it from the constrictee... might prove difficult.

You'll have to remember the target when you are constricting the guy (in timed_effects.lua)... Hmmm... tricksy...

I wanted to supply a patch, but I'm not comfortable with the code (engine) yet. But I'll learn as I go along.

EDIT: Oops ... this is the wrong thread!

[darkgod]

I see why it borked, fixed.

About constriction I've fixed it already
