Lua Item use speed problems.

[Swiff]

I just reopened my otserv project, upgrading to a new distro, which always means bad luck for me^^ But I don't want to jump over the problems..

I got a problem with distance weapons usage at the same time as using something like a rune or an item. While with melee users there's no such problem at all.

using an UH rune while firing bolts at the same time is causing the attack to stop. so using an uh rune continuesly will give the result to not shoot a single bolt.

This is very annoying as paladins will have a huge disadvantage towards the knights and mages who may attack while they heal, as attacking spells may be used at the same time as healing and mana runes.

Using TFS 0.3.6pl1 Crying Damson.

I have looked in the item usage exhaust, but that will only make the actions between usage faster, which means the manarune will go swish since it's an item and not a rune.

Any suggestions how to counter this problem?

Add swing="false" for all distance weapons in weapons.xml

 

[Swiff]

<distance id="7368" level="80" event="function" swing="false" value="default"/> <!-- Assassin Star -->

Didn't work

Then also try "0" and "no"

I tried "0" aswell as I saw there was other functions with "1" as value. Didn't work, haven't tried "no" yet though, but-

I asked on otfans aswell and I got an aswer like this:

"If you are still trying to remove the function that Distance fighting with Rune use stops attack, this feature was implemented in Tibia, and such seems implemented in OT as well.

If you wish to change that, you may have to find it in Sources."

Just thought I should share it here aswell. I will test "no" later, but for now I'm going to focus on talkaction problem and npc problem, which I posted about in lua help/request.

Thanks for helping.

Apparently it worked for Chojrak.

I copied that what you wrote on that thread, but it didnt't work, my guess is that Chojrak is using an older distro. Well, I still haven't tried "no" yet, but it's most likely not that. Thanks for trying

I'm using "cryingdamson6pl1"
And I tried with swing=no/yes/false

Nothign work. Is it possible to fix without recompiling? I really need a way to make it work. Wands works with healing, could I change the type in items.xml and weapons.xml to wand but put vocation id to paladins only? Or would I need to edit other things aswell.

So again, any ideas anyone?
