if a make a creature with:
#copystats 1389 the monster who lose 10% of it's hp any month outside his home
#noheal
#magicbeing

will i get a monster who lose 1 hp each month outside his home but will be healed to 100% inside a lab?

[Sombre]

I believe so, yes.

[Sombre]

Nope.

It doesn't work, the monster doesnt'lose any hp

I think there is a bug:
in order to obtain a monster with "dies away from home", you have to use
#selectmonster and #makemonster5 using it's name, not his number
1389-->it doesn't work
"blood lord"--> it works

why doesnt this spell work ? it only creates the initial 4 units, but not the nextspell ones.

[Swan]

Doesn't nextspell work only for already existing spells?

[Ragnarok-X]

Weird. Apparently the spell does work as intended, summoning 12 units, 4+8. Whats funny is that the spells description only shows number of effects 4. Apparently subspells effects are calculated beforehand.

How do I script a ritual that will summon a random commander from a list?

Do I just add more #damage commands for each different commander I want to be included in the random list? Is there a specific #effect command? TNX.
