quest::castspell

Explaination:

Makes the mob or NPC cast a certain spell on the creature with the indicated ID.

Full Command:

quest::castspell(id,spellid)

ID = The ID of the creature the spell is to be cast on.

SpellID = The ID of the spell to cast taken from the spells_us.txt

Example:

# Casts the bind affinity spell on the hailing person.

sub EVENT_SAY

{

if($text=~/hail/i)

{

quest::castspell($userid,2049);

}

}

Code:

quest::castspell($userid,2049);

doesnt work i would try

Code:

quest::castspell($charid,2049);
