Solved Custom monster attacks...

[zerosmoke]

I'm still messing around with TFS 0.2.9 I believe, Mystic Spirit, and I had this idea that I could give monsters special attacks, for instance, give a dragon the 'Rage of the Skies' attack to attack players with. I've been looking through the luas and monster files but I don't see where I can implement. I'm going to do some more searching, but does anyone have any idea how to do that?

just change the animation type and the range of the area of effect in the monster file

Thanks! Right now I've changed my "Rage of the Skies" spellwords to simply 'thunderstorm' (more realistic instead of that latin based mumbo jumbo)
and I've got
<attack name="thunderstorm" interval="1000" chance="50" range="7" radius="7" target="1" min="-110" max="-200"/>
but it only does the energy effect, not the actual thunderstorm effect when the player uses it.

I guess I need to find the animation type

EDIT:
*facepalm* by naming thunderstorm I was using the thunderstorm.lua, not the rage of the skies.lua. Found it, added it, and died by slimes using thunderstorms lawl...
