Stop "Magnus Exorcismus" damage after Fly Wing (or out of range)

[Nebraskka 4]

Happy holidays!

 

Does there any existing mechanism that allows to implement this behavior?

End ME damage and it's unitcells immediatly after caster leaving it's view range.

 

Trying to prevent ME/wing spam gameplay, that currently allowing to flood all map with ME and gaing lot's of experience without being touched.

 

Any directions would be appreciated <3

Try to do this in src/map/skill.c:

 

int skill_attack(int attack_type, struct block_list* src, struct block_list *dsrc, struct block_list *bl, uint16 skill_id, uint16 skill_lv, int64 tick, int flag) {...	nullpo_ret(src);	// Source is the master behind the attack (player/mob/pet)	nullpo_ret(dsrc); // dsrc is the actual originator of the damage, can be the same as src, or a skill casted by src.	nullpo_ret(bl); //Target to be attacked.	if (src != dsrc) {		//When caster is not the src of attack, this is a ground skill, and as such, do the relevant target checking. [Skotlex]		if (!status->check_skilluse(battle_config.skill_caster_check?src:NULL, bl, skill_id, 2))			return 0;		if( skill_id == PR_MAGNUS && !check_distance_bl(src,dsrc,battle_config.area_size) ) //If distance between "damage source" ME and "source" aka player exceeds view range, it has no effect.			return 0;	}...}

Add the 2nd check, the one with if( skill_id == PR_MAGNUS ...)

Not tested, sorry.

Success! What an elegant solution.

Thanks for your time!
