Where Are Spell Flags stored?

Post by cszark » Sat Feb 25, 2017 2:33 pm

Hi,

I am looking for help to identify where spell flags are stored. I know SQL very well, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what sets these values.

I couldn't find an existing bug report and would like to simply understand this.

darkstar/src/map/spell.h
enum SPELLFLAG
{
SPELLFLAG_NONE = 0x00,
SPELLFLAG_HIT_ALL = 0x01, // Hit all targets in range regardless of party
SPELLFLAG_WIPE_SHADOWS = 0x02 // Wipe shadows even if single target and miss/resist (example: Maiden's Virelai)
};

I am trying to identify why so many spells that are cast have a spellflag value of 0x02, where they shouldn't be and correct this either in a database or the code.
Here are some examples with a spellflag value of 0x02:
Aero III
Bind
Burst
Flare
Drain
Drown
Poision II
Quake
Sleep II
Tornado

Here are some examples with a spellflag value of 0x00: (working a expected)
Bio III
Blind
Burn
Choke
Flood
Fire III
Freeze
Frost
Stun

The code I am debugging is:
darkstar/src/map/entities/battleentity.cpp ~line 1215 (take all shadows)

I added a bit of code in my environment to help debug and display the spellflag values, so I know which spells are doing what.
I have been specifically testing against tonberry_maledictor mobs.

not stored, set in script and checked for in core

you have something wrong because we have only one thing in the entire trunk using that flag right now

Thank you for confirming. I thought it was for just that one spell. I am going to gather some additional data and open a bug report if I am still having problems. This is a fun project. Thanks!
