Mobs buffing PCs

[caravellex]

Hello, I've been trying to make NPCs buff players.

When I change this line of code from NPC_LIST to CLIENT_LIST the npcs buff players, but no longer buff other NPCS, how would I change it so they would buff both players and NPCS.

//Only iterate through NPCs
for (auto it = client_list.begin(); it != client_list.end(); ++it) {
Mob* mob = it->second;

if (mob->GetReverseFactionCon(caster) >= FACTION_KINDLY) {
continue;
}

if (DistanceSquared(caster->GetPosition(), mob->GetPosition()) > iRange2) {
continue;
}

if ((iSpellTypes & SpellType_Buff) && !RuleB(NPC, BuffFriends)) {
if (mob != caster)
iSpellTypes = SpellType_Heal;
}

if (caster->AICastSpell(mob, 100, iSpellTypes))
return true;
}
return false;
}

Use mob_list instead of npc_list or client_list. Not sure why you're wanting them to do this from the source though, you can just script this.

What would a script look like to do this?

Do you mean making a quest file for the npc?

ahh I see!
the difference would be that I wanted any NPC globally to buff the player if they get high enough faction. So editing the source code works well
