Game Mechanics: Gypse Camp - NK

[Somekid123]

Could bind here in classic, right now we cant.

Too lazy to dig up any info atm, but would think most would remember this being classic, such as binding at The Arena too?

This is a known issue. Apparently its super hard to code a small area to be able to bind at.

The way bind works in eqemu is that its either turned On or Off for a particular zone.

North Karana.. casters should be able to bind affinity themselves, but not others, unless they are in the range of the gypsy camp.

If anyone wants to take a stab at this, by all means. Here's the last work I did on it.

I made an invisible man in the middle of the gypsies and it is named 1466.

player.pl for nk

sub EVENT_CAST {

if $spell_id == 35) {


quest::signalwith(1466,0,0); ## 1466 is the invisible man
}
}

script for invisible man (1466 in my example)

sub EVENT_SIGNAL {

 if($signal == 0) {

  my $list_check = 0;

for ($list_check = 0; $list_check < 2000; $list_check++) {

$client_search = $entity_list->GetClientByID($list_check); 
if ($client_search) {
my $distanceCHK = $client_search->CalculateDistance($x, $y, $z);
my $PLTarget = $npc->GetTarget();
my $TargID = $PLTarget->GetID();
my $ClID = $client_search->GetID();
my $client_target = $TargID->GetTarget();
if (($distanceCHK <= 100) && ($TargID = $ClID)) {
$npc->CastSpell(35,$client_target);
  }
 }
}
}
}

Fixed by Mixxit.

your /charinfo will not update until you zone, btw. this will also send a message to the client and the caster indicating as such.

Is the arena bindable now also?

No. It will be soon though. I have no found no evidence when that was added, so I'll try and get it in next patch.
