I looked at the code of this charge, what is the point of it? Did you have a problem with the normal MonsterChargeComponent behavior?

No that's just a remnant from when I haphazardly tried merging assets from my WIP dungeon with the asset pack.
It had a custom damage/death filter for the heroes, and I had to do some hacky stuff to get it to read damage from the charge component.

A few observations about using this version:

1 - when the game is saved, a message always appears
"warning! game object property not saved: scape_camera.camera.camera"

2 - monster Demon - when making a dash towards the group, the game always crashes with an error

3 - monster tentacles - always the game crashes with an error
[string "Animation.lua"]:0: File not found: assets/animations/monsters/drainage_tentacles/drainage_tentacles_attack_from_back.animation
stack traceback:

Can this be somehow corrected?
Thank you!

Until I release a fix, you can just remove this code snippet from demon.lua

3 - monster tentacles - always the game crashes with an error

Will look into it

Hi, Badgert.

1. The camera issue when saving the game is something that looks ugly and is annoying to see each time your saved mod loads, but I was told there's no workaround by Zimber and Minmay.
I feel there is one, but no one has come up with a viable solution.

2. I have the same issue with the Demon, too. I assume this is an asset or monster brain issue when using it in a custom mod, because it works on Zimber's test dungeon.

3. I haven't tried the tentacle monster, but I think it has something to do with adding the legend of Grimrock 1 assets and adding them to your dungeon in full.

Perhaps you should message ZImber to see if they can offer a solution to the above issues.

I'm sorry that I can't offer solutions.

EDIT - Oops, Zimber beat me to it.

Good afternoon!
I want to make sure that my magicians can use spells only if they have a scroll of this spell.
I use this script:

defineObject{
name = "party",
baseObject = "party",
components = {
{
class = "Party",
onCastSpell =
function(party,champion,spellName)
local itemName = "scroll_"..spellName
for i = 1, 32, 1 do
if champion:getItem(i) ~= nil and champion:getItem(i).go.name == itemName then
return true
end
end
hudPrint(champion:getName().." needs to have the spell scroll on him to be able to cast it")
return false
end
}
}
}

I place it in the file objects.lua
Everything works as planned.
But as soon as I connect zim_assets v1.10-75-v1-10 the script stops working and the magicians begin to read spells without scrolls.

Tell me, what am I doing wrong?
Or, how can this situation be remedied?

Twy writing that into the party definition inside he zim_party.lua file
I think my definition just overrode yours

I'm not an expert. If it's not difficult, tell me what file to change and how?

If you've gotten as far as adding a hook to onCastSpell, no reason you shouldn't understand adding your snippet to the defined party in my scripts...
My definition is located a \mod_assets\zim_assets\zim_party.lua, find onCastSpell function in the definition, and add your code there.

Many thanks! Now everything is clear!

Is it possible to use this mod with Andak Rainor's spell pack? I try to merge the party definitions, but it just crashes. (Great assets by the way!)
