[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: Question for the Ltxi programmers

	One thing el tank had that ltxi does not is the ability to switch wands or weapons/arrows automatically. A good example would be for EO, in the ripper room, and a ninja spawns. You need Acid, and by the time you pause, switch both, and turn back on or try to kill it, chances are you are dead or so close to dead that you cannot effectively heal. What is the possibility of this being integrated into LTxi? -----signature-----

	I have a skunkworks macro that solves this in EO, but it doesn't work, because ltxi is hell-bent on re-weilding the "correct" wand... I tried setting a different wand depending on target, in ltxi, but having a macro do this proved extremely unreliable. As such, I'd be happy with a simple "Don't be a wand nazi" button, so, ofcourse, it will weild the default wand initially, but not force that one to be weilded every time it casts a spell... However, the full fix, would involve another tab basically, with the ability to set Default, buffing, elemental, etc wands/weapons individually. Then, on target acq, check weilded wand, vs "proper" wand... Logically, it sounds fairly simple, but from a programming prospective, it might be a bit tricky to get it to work without bugging out. (note- the current "default wand" setting might prove very valueable, as if you simply push the proper wand to this variable, ltxi will automatically force the wand to be weilded... but an ifexists check every time you change wands would be slow, and without it, it would cause ltxi to sit there for hours trying to weild a wand that's in your chest, or on a corpse.) peace Command -----signature-----
