Hi everyone

I have been looking through the script code for spells and I noticed that DC is lacking in 'spell status' variables.

The variables that I would propose to be added would be the following;

10=poisoned
11=hasted
12=slowed
13=feebleminded
14=blinded
15=diseased
16=disintegrated
17=charmed
18=cursed

I was wondering whether it would be best to put them under the 'Status Values' or to create another set of variables entitle 'Spell Status Values' and start the numbers from 1 to n.... and allowing for more to be added in as needed.

Also, looking at the possible script coding has made me wonder whether some of the spells from the original Gold Box games will be able to be made up as well as I think the scripting will not allow for the way some of the spells work in the Gold box games.

I don't want to turn anyone off trying to code the new spells into DC but I thought that it would be a good idea to test the Gold box game spells out and see how they work and under what conditions (a long process no doubt) and then try to duplicate that same spell in DC.

As I am not an expert with the scripting and spells areas other people may have different opinions on this matter.

Cheers
