Back to shooting for non shooters:

There is this topic created by Chortos HERE

I translated it but still do not understand very well how it works, mostly because the first script did not work properly then he added commands, so everything is scattered through 4 pages.

If I understand well, the first step is to assign to x1 the type of projectile:

!!FU#:P0/<номер существа>/<тип снаряда>;

From the list here:

Типы снаряда соответствуют стандартным изображениям снарядов для следующих существ:

    * 0 — лучник (исключение: для существа № 196 — драколич);
    * 1 — монах;
    * 2 — эльф;
    * 3 — мастер‐гремлин;
    * 4 — маг;
    * 5 — титан;
    * 6 — гог;
    * 7 — лич;
    * 8 — медуза;
    * 9 — орк;
    * 10 — циклоп;
    * 11 — ящер;
    * 12 — ледяной элементаль;
    * 13 — полурослик;
    * 14 — катапульта;
    * 15 — баллиста.

But right after that he uses

!!FU#:P1/<номер существа>/?<тип снаряда>; (same)

to assign Color coded beam number (my translation sucks):

    * 0 — зеленый; 0 - green;
    * 1 — белый; 1 - white;
    * 2 — черный. 2 - Black. (what is it?)

After that my problem is the translation. He specifies that a sound 82M should be added, as well as shooting frames. But he also talks about a missile def (in that specific case--> for peasants)


The people write the script but not working. At the end Chortos comes up with a (?) final version (but everyone adds something, and I don't get it):

ZVSE
!#MA:N139 /16;
!#MA:X139/?i;
!#VRi:|4;

!#MA:X139/i;
!#FU29900:P139/3;

!?FU6000;

Make sure the creature number is valid
!!VRx3&x1=1/x2<2:S-1;
!!VRx3&x1=1/x2>146:S-1;
!!FU|x2<2/x2>146:E;

Get the correct address
!!VRx2:+4447138;

Do what they ask us to do
!!UN&x1=0:Cx2/1/x3;
!!UN&x1=1:Cx2/1/?x3;

!#MA:X139/?i;
!#VRi:|4;
!#MA:X139/i;
!#MA:N139/16;
!#FU6000:P0/139/11;

from what I understand this time x1 is creature ID, x2 =3 (3 what is? number of shooting def? or color beam or...?)
but I don't understand most of additional comments. Anyone got this script working? Is there a need for a "PPEASX.def (?)" as well or simply the script assigns an existing projectile?
