rune info working?

Post by Bones » Thu Oct 16, 2003 1:35 pm

Hiyas...

I remember awhile back someone coded up a feature to be able to see how much is remaining on a rune that is on your character.. it wasn't working, and I have not heard anything about it since..

Has this feature been fixed?

/echo $char(buff,"Rune V",dar)

too late for me to log in again and check, but in theory this should work...

It should return what DamageAbsorbRemaining is... let me know if it doesnt work and I will fix that and post it in the zip and cvs...

/echo $char(dar) will show you your damage absorption remaining.

/echo $char(buff,"Arcane Rune",dar) will echo the buff slot, it appears to ignore the dar part.

It was included in this update by me in June.

Actually Damage Absorption Remaining is showing total Damage Absorpion, but not remaining. Tested this tonight.

Arcane Rune alone will show 1500 even if you've taken damage to the rune.

Bulwark of Vie + Arcane Rune will show 3100 even if you've take some damage by spell.

It seems the struct may be incorrect.

*edit*

Ok, I went to another zone and after I zoned in $char(dar) was changed. I took a few hits and zoned again and it changed. There's got to be a current value of the buff somewhere in memory though.

That's strange....it should update more often than that ...I'll look into it a bit.

Thanks for looking into it.. if I remember correctly, last I heard was that you had to zone for the amount remaining on your rune to be available. Sorry I didn't add that info before.. it's been awhile.
