Lua COMBAT_FORMULA (How?)

[Taurus]

I need to know how this works so that I can get the spell editing thing down.

setAttackFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, [COLOR="red"]5[/COLOR], [COLOR="lime"]5[/COLOR], [COLOR="yellow"]7[/COLOR], [COLOR="darkorange"]14[/COLOR])

(Color coded so posters can say "red number does this")

I need to know which numbers do what.

And maybe the best advice for editing them lol (If you know a trick)

Thanks so much for your help in understanding this.

rep+ for solid responses.

red = level divisor for the minimum damage formula
green = level divisor for the maximum damage formula
yellow = magic level multiplier for the minimum damage formula
orange = magic level multiplier for the maximum damage formula

That was fast, aha? :3

This is how it looks in the end:

min = level / 5 + maglevel * 7
max = level / 5 + maglevel * 14

The final number will be a number between min and max.

If you want a custom formula; it is, of course, possible to add something like this in your script, instead of the usual setAttackFormula:

function onGetFormulaValues(cid, level, maglevel)
	local min = level / 5 + maglevel * 1.4
	local max = level / 5 + maglevel * 2.8
	return -math.max(40, min), -math.max(70, max)
end
setCombatCallback(combat, CALLBACK_PARAM_LEVELMAGICVALUE, 'onGetFormulaValues')

THANK YOU

How did I know it would be Cyko that answered

Now I can actually edit spells, It is a really important thing to know before altering those scripts

Thanks Cyko.
