Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
* New item modding commands: #newitem, #descr, #weapon, #armor, #type, #name, #copyspr.
I dont see a command to add special effects or copy from existing items. Even if we get copyitem that would be awesome.

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
I just realised that #onebattlespell might not be the really cool unit tag it appeared to be. It might actually be an item modding tag which allows the item to cast a spell over and over again. That's still cool, but nowhere near as useful as the #entryspell thing I thought it was.

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
Before beginners? JapaN00b?
I'd definetly make a small mod for my beloved Agartha if I can forge a darkness autocasting item. I might have to keep it singleplayer... or maybe I could make those cave provinces dark again.
If it had to be units, I could summon an immobile commander, I suppose. I remember hearing about the 'Insectoid' mod and how it had interesting buildings. Even if its simply setting a unit to cast only one available spell I could have a Death 8 unit cast darkness and nothing else...
Or, imagine a unit that casts fire flies - national turret?

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
I think fire flies could be done as a weapon. Just give it a high rate of fire.
Things I'm particularly looking forward to:
* Spells with side-effects. My Voudoun-themed LA Machaka needs to have negative side-effects to their mass-buffs.
* I assume that I can also get the computer to downward adjust ages with a side-effect; or maybe this will not be needed.
* Blood and fire! I can't even decide what all side-effects to give people.

Sounds like a Watcher.
But after you said "turret", I got visions of trampling tanks rolling across the battlefield...

I made such a turret in my Commonwealth mod. It fires lightning.

I see. Not a problem.  What I said was, "IIRC, 'nihongo wa dekimasen' is the correct way, right?" (literally, 'is not the wrong way...').
And LOL @ JapaN00b.
Hm. I guess item modding has to start somewhere. Any idea if we can restrict them?

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
#onebattlespell is a tag that makes a commander cast a spell in the beginning of a battle. Storm, darkness, summon wolves, etc.

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
KO: Does it only actually do something for a commander, or could you put it on a unit (to autocast Air Shield, for example)? Also, does the unit gain fatigue for the spell cast, and, if so, is it 5 like for an item spell, or the normal fatigue?

Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?
Unfortunately it only works on commanders. Tke kuro oni was originally supposed to summon wolves. Now only oni generals does this. I've had other similar experiences. If you need the feature post some cakes. I wouldn't mind getting access to spell effects on non-commanders as well
No fatigue as far as I know.
