EVENT TYPE ABILITY CAST IMPACT
From Dragon Age Toolset Wiki
- Source:
- script.ldf
- Sent when:
- Fires for the moment of impact for every ability. This is where damage should be applied, fireballs explode, enemies get poisoned etc. We assume that stamina/mana have been deducted when the ability was triggered (COMMAND_PENDING stage). For melee talents, this event fires if the associated animations has an "Ability cast impact" event assigned to it (see Animation blend tree editor#Event editor).

Usage
case EVENT_TYPE_ABILITY_CAST_IMPACT:
{
int nAbilityId = GetEventInteger(ev, 0); //
int nResitanceCheckResult = GetEventInteger(ev, 1); //
object oEventObjectId = GetEventObject(ev, 0); //
object oItem = GetEventObject(ev, 1); // (optional) the item used to cast the ability or OBJECT_INVALID
object oTarget = GetEventObject(ev, 2); // the object that the ability was targeted>
location lPosition = GetEventLocation(ev, 0); //
location lAnimBaseOrientation = GetEventLocation(ev, 1); //
// insert event-handling code here
break;
}
{
int nAbilityId = GetEventInteger(ev, 0); //
int nResitanceCheckResult = GetEventInteger(ev, 1); //
object oEventObjectId = GetEventObject(ev, 0); //
object oItem = GetEventObject(ev, 1); // (optional) the item used to cast the ability or OBJECT_INVALID
object oTarget = GetEventObject(ev, 2); // the object that the ability was targeted>
location lPosition = GetEventLocation(ev, 0); //
location lAnimBaseOrientation = GetEventLocation(ev, 1); //
// insert event-handling code here
break;
}
Remarks
In case of a projectile impact, there might be more than one target (object 2+...) this allows doing things like lightning bolts going through targets, but this is not currently made use of in Dragon Age.
