Title: [Help Request] Consumables Lose Effect on Logout
Post by: gytfunke on November 06, 2014, 07:33:45 am

So, I've got some new consumables that I've made.  On use they apply the effect 'add stat' to the player.  If I spawn them via the console they work correctly.  If I log out, then back into TL2, any items that were still in my inventory no longer work.  Specifically, they're still usable, still get consumed on use, but don't apply their effect.  Here's the item file for one of them:

Code: [Select]

[UNIT]
<STRING>BASEFILE:media/units/items/base.dat
<STRING>NAME:arrows1_loe_gyt
<STRING>RESOURCEDIRECTORY:media/models/items/scroll
<STRING>UNITTYPE:POTION
<INTEGER>RARITY:477
<TRANSLATE>DESCRIPTION:Arrows are necessary for many successful archers.  Use to equip.
<INTEGER>MAXSTACKSIZE:3
<STRING>ICON:icon_weapon_staff17
<STRING>FALL_SOUND:Item Fall
<STRING>LAND_SOUND:STAFFDROP
<INTEGER>MINLEVEL:1
<INTEGER>MAXLEVEL:9999999
<STRING>MESHFILE:scroll
<BOOL>DONT_USE_ON_FULL:true
<TRANSLATE>DISPLAYNAME:Quiver of Arrows
<STRING>TAKE_SOUND:STAFFGET
<STRING>USES:1
<INTEGER>LEVEL:1
<BOOL>SHADOWS:0
<STRING>USE_SOUND:WEAPONSWAP
<INTEGER>VALUE:100
<STRING>UNIT_GUID:7380932563104407265
[EFFECT]
<STRING>NAME:arrows_loe_gyt
<STRING>ACTIVATION:DYNAMIC
<STRING>DURATION:INSTANT
<STRING>TYPE:ADD STAT
<BOOL>SAVE:true
<BOOL>EXCLUSIVE:true
<FLOAT>MIN:25
<FLOAT>MAX:25
<FLOAT>CHANCE:100
[/EFFECT]
[/UNIT]
I'm hoping someone might know what this is all about.  This is happening for all the new consumables I've made.

I do not know why it does not work. But maybe you could try a different way?
Summon a dummy which will cast the effect you want?

I already tried that, Twinkle  :(

Anyways, despite the fact that the items should work as is, they're not.  I'm actually thinking I'll try using an Affix instead of an Effect.  If that doesn't work, perhaps a skill...?

yea try using an affix
pure effects have tons of bugs associated with them
