[September Digest 2019]

thanks Dastgir. I couldn't get item combo to work but scconfig did.

[September Digest 2019]

can anyone help me on how to run python script? When I run ./scconfigconverter.py on my linux system nothing happens. Same for the item combo one. didn't have issue when converting mob_skill_db.txt back a while.

[user@host tools]$ ./scconfigconverter.py
: No such file or directory

Question is hard to understand. I am unfamiliar with what you mean "cash points" in releation to flux-cp.

edit: someone post just before i did

[HELP FOR ADDING NEW CUSTOM ITEM]

There is a guide on the github wiki. It should be good enough to get a custom item in.

[exp database]

here you go. i made another thread for it so others can see it

 

 

[Old exp tables - exp_group_db.conf for Base Level 999]

https://pastebin.com/H9e2SG9t

Based on the old exp.txt tables. This only works for base level 999.

If you want to use a lower level, you need to comment out all entries above that level. E.g. if you want base level 500, you need to comment out entries 500-999.

The formula for no. of entries you need is [Max Base Level - 1]. So if max level is 400, you need 399 entries; 250 needs 249, and so on.

Let me know if there are any issues with it.

[Element Acid Demostration]

how are you changing it? 

[Multiple Errors after export of Hercs DB to SDE]

we don't have skill_db.txt on Hercules. Must be something confused?

[Renewal or Pre-Re?]

You can use either, Hercules has both. I prefer Pre-Renewal due to the mechanics. And then you can add any Renewal content on top of that.

[Client Setup Questions]

I think you can use any client. However, some newer clients don't have fully coded features. I'm pretty sure Hercules is up to date with all the 2017 features though.

[Ranged mob no attack after ice wall]

worth reporting in github bug report

[Ranged mob no attack after ice wall]

This is long existing behaviour I think. Mobs always have had trouble navigating ice wall.
Although when I say long existing, doesn't mean it is correct/good, since we have been known to add fixes in the form of configuration options for strange behaviour.

[[Showcase] Chowd Castle]

this is a forum for showcasing maps. doesn't mean they are for sale like @freezing1 said.

[Script to give bonus for player in X map]

item bonuses get reloaded after all sorts of things. check out Annieruru's OnPCStatCalcEvent plugin: https://github.com/AnnieRuru/Release/tree/master/plugins/OnPCStatCalcEvent

[Need help disable shadow jump delay]

shadow jump is client side not server. you need to edit the animation files.

[How to run my server under gdb]

i use tmux

tmux new -s login
./login-server
<CTRL + b>, <d>

then repeat for char

[Server hangs and crash]

@imbadudelz need to run server in debug mode and get crash stack. Check this article out: https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules/wiki/GDB

[Best Web Hosting for my patcher.]

just go with $5/month on Digital Ocean. You can host your website on the same server as the patcher.

[Need help with hatred reset and disable hatred to emperium]

Search skill.c for SG_HATE.  Target is emperium mob then skill fails. Add the mobs you need.

		case SG_HATE:
			if (sd) {
				clif->skill_nodamage(src,bl,skill_id,skill_lv,1);
				// mobs which cannot be hated
				int class_ = status->get_class(bl);
				if (class_ ==   MOBID_EMPELIUM) {
					clif->message(sd->fd, msg_sd(sd, 1551));  // Hatred cannot be cast on this mob.
					clif->skill_fail(sd, skill_id, USESKILL_FAIL_LEVEL, 0, 0);
					break;
				}

				if (!pc->set_hate_mob(sd, skill_lv-1, bl))
					clif->skill_fail(sd, skill_id, USESKILL_FAIL_LEVEL, 0, 0);
			}
			break;

 

[[Q] Skip sql update]

You shouldn't skip sql updates. Server will break in some cases if you do.

[Need help with hatred reset and disable hatred to emperium]

The error message is clearly stating what is wrong. Your message number (1552) is outside of the accepted ranged (0-1502). Increase MAX_MSG in atcommand.h to accommodate.

[Pow to operator?]

LMAO! Haven't you ever seen somebody make an actual calculation? '^' is literally the character used on PC calculators. SMH. I was trying to show you what your calculation was doing...

[Pow to operator?]

You should link where you got the script from.

Anyway, your issue is basic maths...order of exponents. Use your parentheses correctly.

_{pow(10,.@i+1)} is the same as _{10 ^ (.@i+1)}
When you change it to _{10 ** .@i+1} it is being read as _{(10 ^ .@i) + 1}

[Need help with status immunity]

In static int status_get_sc_def() you can add code.

Right below this,

		//Aegis accuracy
		if (rate > 0 && rate%10 != 0) rate += (10 - rate%10);

You can add your code:

		//Aegis accuracy
		if (rate > 0 && rate%10 != 0) rate += (10 - rate%10);

		// Gain all status immunity by LUK stat. Caps at 99 (100% immunity)
		// change both 99 values to what you want
		if (st->luk >= 99)
			rate = 0;
		else
			rate -= rate * st->luk / 99 + 10;

 

[Callfunc npc script in src code?]

25 minutes ago, hikashin said:

callfunc "func", "param1","param2";

like this

also have a sample

callfunc("OddFunc",.@number)

the source link is

https://herc.ws/wiki/Callfunc

 

Hyroshima wants to use a callfunc() every time a skill is used.

E.g. player uses skill 'Magnum Break', every time it occurs callfunc("F_Test") happens.
