Validity of Quest Objects

[Dibalamin]

Thanks Reality, that helps a ton actually....

GetHateTop is on the $mob list, I'm trying to have one mob get the hate top of the list of another mob & cast a spell on it but not aggro...before I drive myself any crazier...is this even possible? I've been on this for a while now and can't get it rolling.

I see similar things in the linking of mobs in TOV (Like Eashen)....and I think I found the code in Sentry Rotiart, but I am not sure how to modify it to cast a spell instead of attacking:

    
    my $attack = $entity_list->GetMobID(mobid);
    my $traitorattack = $attack->CastToNPC();
    $traitorattack->AddToHateList($client, 1);

$traitorattack->CastSpell(spellid, $client);
in this case, doesn't work..

my $attack=$entity_list->GetHateTop();
my $traitorattack=$attack->CastToNPC();
$tratorattack->CastSpell(spellid,$client);

I'm grasping at straws here, I'm missing some small piece of how all this fits together.

The main problem with your version of the quest is that GetHateTop() isn't a member of the entity list. If you call $npc->GetHateTop(), you'll get a result, which I believe is mob type. You should then be able to either call functions from that or cast it to whatever you need.

You also have a typo in the last line ("trator" instead of "traitor").

Ok, so CastToNPC() is the variable passer that I've been looking for? I may joygasm if that is the case

my $attack=$npc->GetHateTop();
my $traitorattack=$attack->CastToNPC();
$traitorattack->CastSpell(spellid,$client);
