misceffect, skilleffect, npcskilleffect commands

[kotsumu]

I'm trying to script a NPC who would cast a effect centered on a player.

Simple,

- script - -1,{
OnPCLoginEvent:
 misceffect 890;
 end;
}

I have looked through some of the documentation and it says that misceffect would center around the character instantiating the script if the npc is a floating npc.

However, it seems that misceffect does not center the effect on the character.

skilleffect does another set of effects that are specific to skills. So that's out of the question.

npcskilleffect, not yet sure if that will give my desired outcome.

Any help would be appreciated.

*specialeffect2 <effect number>{,<send_target>{,"<Player Name>"}};

This command behaves identically to the 'specialeffect', but the effect will be

centered on the invoking character's sprite.

<Player name> parameter will display <effect number> on another Player than the

one currently attached to the script. Like with specialeffect, when specifying

a player, <send_target> must be supplied, specifying AREA will retain the default

behavior of the command.

Example:

prontera,159,189,4 script Test 123,{
   specialeffect2 12;
}
