Anyone else excited about the next patch?
 

I had to pinch myself to make sure I was not dreaming...

18th nov
* Increased maximum nbr of descriptions for modding.
* New monster mod command: #onebattlespell.
* New item modding commands: #newitem, #descr, #weapon, #armor, #type, #name, #copyspr.

17th nov
* Bug preventing more than a hundred sprites or so in mods has been squashed.
* New monster mod command: #patrolbonus.
* New spell mod command: #nextspell.
* Several statfixes from the shortlist.
* Some site fixes from the shortlist.

Nice work on these patches. This game has been well worth the investment, and just when I think I am going to get bored with it, Illwinter prepares another incredible patch.

nice!

If #onebattlespell does what I think it does, that alone is going to make this an amazing patch.

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
 

What do you think #onebattlespell will do then?

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
 

Do a spell like howl or something at the start of battle would be my guess, or darkness! or firestorm!!!! bwhahaha!!

That's great news! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I need to compile my list of mod/map wishes (mostly convenience stuff that makes armor and item handling in mods and maps easier) soon.

Oh wow I had missed this, that looks absolutely amazing!

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
 

YES! Ahem, I mean, yes, I am rather looking forward to it.

On the other hand, I can envisage my productivty at work declining precipitously http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

#onebattlespell might be the single most important mod command out there. I really hope it can be used with any spell - the possibilities there are crazy.

I have no idea what #onebattlespell does. My guess is that you can assign a spell to a creature and it will be able to cast that spell no matter its picks, and will spam it?
