Pet Focus

[Kutulu99]

Bumping this thread in hopes of a pet focus item update. Instead of just incrementing pet level by 1, would it be feasible to allow the initial level of focus to increment by 1, and subsequent focus effects increase pet level by 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.?

Further bump for some pet focus love

since this isnt nearly close to how live works, it doesnt have any chance of being submitted for server code(I imagine) however for custom servers its a very easy change...

original code... pets.cpp... line 251

if (this->IsClient() && CastToClient()->GetFocusEffect(focusPetPower, spell_id) > 0)
	{
		npc_type->max_hp *= 1.20;
		npc_type->cur_hp = npc_type->max_hp;
		npc_type->AC *= 1.20;
		npc_type->level += 1;
		npc_type->min_dmg = (npc_type->min_dmg * 110 / 100);
		npc_type->max_dmg = (npc_type->max_dmg * 110 / 100);
		npc_type->size *= 1.15;
	}

change to...

if (this->IsClient() && CastToClient()->GetFocusEffect(focusPetPower, spell_id) == 5)
	{
		npc_type->max_hp *= 1.20;
		npc_type->cur_hp = npc_type->max_hp;
		npc_type->AC *= 1.20;
		npc_type->level += 1;
		npc_type->min_dmg = (npc_type->min_dmg * 110 / 100);
		npc_type->max_dmg = (npc_type->max_dmg * 110 / 100);
		npc_type->size *= 1.15;
	}

for subsequent focuses add a new copy of that and change the attributes as you see fit... for example..

if (this->IsClient() && CastToClient()->GetFocusEffect(focusPetPower, spell_id) == 10)
	{
		npc_type->max_hp *= 1.30;
		npc_type->cur_hp = npc_type->max_hp;
		npc_type->AC *= 1.30;
		npc_type->level += 2;
		npc_type->min_dmg = (npc_type->min_dmg * 120 / 100);
		npc_type->max_dmg = (npc_type->max_dmg * 120 / 100);
		npc_type->size *= 1.2;
	}

then keep adding those in increments of 5 until you get to the max pet focus, which seems to be like 120 for Enhanced Minion XIV. Could also define some variables and have them increment values automatically based on the pet power base so would only need 1 section of code instead of 20 ish.

Playing with the source is alot easier than it seems, easier than waiting 16 months for somebody to do it for you lol.

I don't program and while I would love to learn, I just don't have the time.

Thanks for the post, if anyone has the time to add the variables to adjust it automatically that'd be cool
