[K1] Force Transmogrify

[e-varmint]

A spell script that turns your target into three insane gizkas:

 

Edit: ***Don't use this on plot-critical characters (duelists, Juhani, etc.) It will probably "break" something if you do.***

 

#include "k_inc_force" 

void main() 
{ 
   object oSource = OBJECT_SELF; 
   object oTarget = GetSpellTargetObject(); 

   effect eSource = EffectVisualEffect(1014);

   ApplyEffectAtLocation(0, EffectVisualEffect(3005, 0), GetSpellTargetLocation(), 0.0);
   ApplyEffectToObject(1, eSource, oSource, 1.5);
   CreateObject( OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE, "c_gizka088", GetLocation(GetSpellTargetObject()));
   CreateObject( OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE, "c_gizka088", GetLocation(GetSpellTargetObject()));
   CreateObject( OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE, "c_gizka088", GetLocation(GetSpellTargetObject()));
   DestroyObject(oTarget, 0.0f, TRUE, 0.0f);
} 

 

Here is a .zip file containing the gizka .utc, script, an an icon:

Very interesting, I like the idea. Would it work in TSL or would I just have to make a similar one?

[Ghost Down]

Haha, sweet!

I haven't done much TSL scripting, so I don't know. I'll try it and see what happens.

 

Edit: I tried adding it to TSL, but couldn't get it to show up in the Level Up - Powers screen. So:

 

1) It only works for K1; or

2) I don't know how to add force powers to TSL.

 

Haha, sweet!

 

When I get around to learning the TSL Patcher, I'll publish my force power collection. There is another good one that changes the target into a hutt for 20 seconds.

[Sithspecter]

Hahahaha! Love it! I think I'll wait until you release the whole thing, though.

I love the idea, similar to one I had a while ago but a problem that put me off, and that perhaps you could consider is that with using DestroyObject() you can never get the loot.

Great idea

[e-varmint]

........you can never get the loot.)

 

You have just given me a very interesting idea! If I am interpreting nwscript correctly, I should be able to modify this so that you can steal (at least some) of the target's loot! It will take some experimentation, but it would be REALLY COOL if it works.

 

Edit: Not to mention the fact that I could also make a pickpocket spell!

Transfering items would be something like:

void GM_TransferItems(object oTake, object oGive)
{
   object oItem = GetFirstItemInInventory(oTake);
   while (ObjectIsValid(oItem)){
       GiveItem(oItem, oGive);
       AssignCommand(oTake, ActionTakeItem(oItem, oTake));
       oItem = GetNextItemInInventory(oTake);
   }
}
void main()
{
   object oTarget = GetTargetObject();
   if (GetHasInventory(oTarget))
       GM_TransferItems(oTarget, OBJECT_SELF);
}

This is different. Is it possible to do something similar with Rakghouls?

[glovemaster]

Sure, use the script e-varmint made, just replace c_gizka088 with either c_rakghoul or your own custom UTC filename.

void GM_TransferItems(object oTake, object oGive)
{
   object oItem = GetFirstItemInInventory(oTake);
   while (ObjectIsValid(oItem)){
       GiveItem(oItem, oGive);
       AssignCommand(oTake, ActionTakeItem(oItem, oTake));
       oItem = GetNextItemInInventory(oTake);
   }
}
void main()
{
   object oTarget = GetTargetObject();
   if (GetHasInventory(oTarget))
       GM_TransferItems(oTarget, OBJECT_SELF);
}

 

Nice!!! You just saved me a bunch of work!!!!

Rakghouls work quite well, but make it a long range spell in spells.2da or it will backfire. Also, make the rackghouls have short range perception (.utc file).

 

Another good one is Vandar (as Frienldy 1, designated in the .utc file). It's a riot to pop him into a crowd of hostiles (another Long Distance spell, so you can sit back and watch the fun).

 

It works just as well if you take the "destroyobject" line out. Make your spawnables either Friendly 1 or Insane so they will attack your ememies (and/or each other). A couple of Ajunta Palls sure can come in handy during the Malak showdown.

 

Edit: This just occurred to me. Don't use the destroyobject on plot-critical characters (duelists, Juhani, etc.) It will probably "break" something if you do.

You can check if oTarget is a plot object with GetPlotFlag()

This adapted script will check oTarget before casting the force power, if the target is a plot object they will resist the force power.

void main() 
{ 
   object oSource = OBJECT_SELF; 
   object oTarget = GetSpellTargetObject(); 
   if( !GetPlotFlag(oTarget) ){
       effect eSource = EffectVisualEffect(1014);
       ApplyEffectAtLocation(0, EffectVisualEffect(3005, 0), GetSpellTargetLocation(), 0.0);
       ApplyEffectToObject(1, eSource, oSource, 1.5);
       CreateObject( OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE, "c_gizka088", GetLocation(GetSpellTargetObject()));
       CreateObject( OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE, "c_gizka088", GetLocation(GetSpellTargetObject()));
       CreateObject( OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE, "c_gizka088", GetLocation(GetSpellTargetObject()));
       DestroyObject(oTarget, 0.0f, TRUE, 0.0f);
   }
   else
   {
       effect eResist = EffectForceResisted(oTarget);
       ApplyEffectToObject(DURATION_TYPE_INSTANT, eResisted, oSource);
   }
}

Thanks!!!

 

I may modify it further to add some type of alternate nasty under the "else". Perhaps a Virulent Weakness/Confusion/Attribute Damage combo.

 

If I ever release this via the TSL Patcher, I'm going to list you as the co-author.
