Good day.

I created a rule to force training of certain melee skills. The intention is to only force training if the skill is acquired after level 1.

For Riposte below,

\zone\attack.cpp(412)

		if (IsClient()) {
			if (!RuleB(Skills, TrainMeleeSkills)) {
				CastToClient()->CheckIncreaseSkill(SkillRiposte, other, -10);
			}
			else if (RuleB(Skills, TrainMeleeSkills) && CastToClient()->HasSkill(SkillRiposte)) {
				(CastToClient()->CheckIncreaseSkill(SkillRiposte, other, -10));
			}
		}

I'm concerned about what will happen when the rule is true and the character does not have <SkillRiposte>. Do I need some kind of escape from this if it goes beyond <else if>? There is quite a bit more code after what is quoted above.

This question applies to several similar issues I had concern about.

Thanks
