Making item bonus spell dmg apply to Dots

[mpeels]

I have been making some changes to a server of my own recently and one change that I have been wanting to make is to get extra spell damage on items to apply to damage over time spells. I have been making changes to the effects.cpp to no avail. I know it has to be simple but I'm new at this. Plzz help

Thank you all

Have you tried modifying Mob::GetActDoTDamage's calculations?

Replace GetActDoTDamage function with the one below...

int32 Mob::GetActDoTDamage(uint16 spell_id, int32 value, Mob* target) {

	if (target == nullptr)
		return value;

	if (IsNPC())
		value += value*CastToNPC()->GetSpellFocusDMG()/100;

	int32 value_BaseEffect = 0;
	int32 extra_dmg = 0;
	int16 chance = 0;
	chance += itembonuses.CriticalDoTChance + spellbonuses.CriticalDoTChance + aabonuses.CriticalDoTChance;

	if (spellbonuses.CriticalDotDecay)
		chance += GetDecayEffectValue(spell_id, SE_CriticalDotDecay);

	if (spells[spell_id].override_crit_chance > 0 && chance > spells[spell_id].override_crit_chance)
		chance = spells[spell_id].override_crit_chance;

	value_BaseEffect = value + (value*GetFocusEffect(focusFcBaseEffects, spell_id)/100);

	if (chance > 0 && (zone->random.Roll(chance))) {
		int32 ratio = 200;
		ratio += itembonuses.DotCritDmgIncrease + spellbonuses.DotCritDmgIncrease + aabonuses.DotCritDmgIncrease;
		value = value_BaseEffect*ratio/100;
		value += int(value_BaseEffect*GetFocusEffect(focusImprovedDamage, spell_id)/100)*ratio/100;
		value += int(value_BaseEffect*GetFocusEffect(focusImprovedDamage2, spell_id)/100)*ratio/100;
		value += int(value_BaseEffect*GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamagePctCrit, spell_id)/100)*ratio/100;
		value += int(value_BaseEffect*target->GetVulnerability(this, spell_id, 0)/100)*ratio/100;
		extra_dmg = target->GetFcDamageAmtIncoming(this, spell_id) +
					int(GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamageAmtCrit, spell_id)*ratio/100) +
					GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamageAmt, spell_id) +
					GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamageAmt2, spell_id);
					
		if(!spells[spell_id].no_heal_damage_item_mod && itembonuses.SpellDmg && spells[spell_id].classes[(GetClass()%16) - 1] >= GetLevel() - 5)
				extra_dmg += GetExtraSpellAmt(spell_id, itembonuses.SpellDmg, value)*ratio/100;	

		if (extra_dmg) {
			int duration = CalcBuffDuration(this, this, spell_id);
			if (duration > 0)
				extra_dmg /= duration;
		}

		value -= extra_dmg;
	}
	else {

		value = value_BaseEffect;
		value += value_BaseEffect*GetFocusEffect(focusImprovedDamage, spell_id)/100;
		value += value_BaseEffect*GetFocusEffect(focusImprovedDamage2, spell_id)/100;
		value += value_BaseEffect*GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamagePctCrit, spell_id)/100;
		value += value_BaseEffect*target->GetVulnerability(this, spell_id, 0)/100;
		extra_dmg = target->GetFcDamageAmtIncoming(this, spell_id) +
					GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamageAmtCrit, spell_id) +
					GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamageAmt, spell_id) +
					GetFocusEffect(focusFcDamageAmt2, spell_id);
					
		if(!spells[spell_id].no_heal_damage_item_mod && itembonuses.SpellDmg && spells[spell_id].classes[(GetClass()%16) - 1] >= GetLevel() - 5)
				extra_dmg += GetExtraSpellAmt(spell_id, itembonuses.SpellDmg, value);			

		if (extra_dmg) {
			int duration = CalcBuffDuration(this, this, spell_id);
			if (duration > 0)
				extra_dmg /= duration;
		}

		value -= extra_dmg;
	}

	if (IsNPC() && CastToNPC()->GetSpellScale())
		value = int(static_cast<float>(value) * CastToNPC()->GetSpellScale() / 100.0f);

	return value;
}

Thank you very much! After i see how simple it was i'm not sure why I couldn't get it.
