Let's say i want to added an additional effect from spell or from trap after damaged without modifying the script this spell, i can do it in 70_mod_attacked?

I'm of a wrong idea led to what i need, i would like to make to say the domain of death could block 1 time a day fatal damage from any source previously putting immortality on 0.1 second before applying the damage no matter what attack or spell or trap, etc. this is for the NPC i already made, but with the plugin Baaleos it was impossible to do because the deadly damage it generally did not work well and similar ideas i have a few. In your opinion how can i implement this and where to start?

NWNCX_Patch and NWNX_Patch v1.33

DOWNLOAD

Fixes to the plugin:
- fixed SetEffectInteger used with negative values

Revisited fixes/features:
- added logging into effect functions
- added prefix NWNXPatch_ into all functions in 70_inc_nwnx library
- functions for overriding base saving throws removed and replaced by one function for all 3 saving throw types

New features, fixes and improvements:
- fixed bug that restored uses of certain feats incorrectly under specific circumstances
- greatly improved way how decrementing spell uses works when unequipping items with bonus spell slots
- EffectDamage no longer ignores nDamagePower parameter
- plugin runs script 70_mod_hlight if player attempts to highlight all objects (the TAB key feature)
- enabled to capture effect event 70_mod_effects for any vanilla effect, refers to effects.2da
- OnDamaged event for player will run also for non-combat damage
- enabled immunity to dying, creature with variable int "IMMUNITY_DYING" 1 will not drop unconscious on hitpoints 0 to -9
- Eye of the Gruumsh level will be calculated into number of Greater Rage feat uses
- enabled to make new spellcasting class casting custom type of spells (such as invocations, powers etc.)
- reworked the way how prestige classes affects spellcasting progression, refers to cls_prog_*.2da

New custom functions:
NWNXPatch_AddFeat
NWNXPatch_RemoveFeat
NWNXPatch_SetFeatTotalUses - enables to override maximum uses for specified feat (ie. over the value set in feat.2da)
NWNXPatch_TransferEffectValues
NWNXPatch_GetDamageDealtSpellId - enables to determine if the damage was applied by spell, use in OnDamaged event
+ new functions using already existing nwnx_patch features (variables):
NWNXPatch_SetSavingThrowBase
NWNXPatch_SetSavingThrowModifier
NWNXPatch_SetNumberOfEpicDodges
NWNXPatch_GetNumberOfEpicDodges
NWNXPatch_SetNumberOfDeflectArrows
NWNXPatch_GetNumberOfDeflectArrows

Notes:

1) Apology for functions name changes and saving throw functions rework. Might make your scripts run errors, but having functions with and without NWNXPatch_ prefix in same library was messy. In case of saving throw functions, it is better to have 2 functions than 6 because toolset builtin script compiler has limit to the number of identifiers.

2) I didn't make the change with OnDamaged event. Combat damage will still try to run script 70_mod_damaged. It is probably redundant as the damage can be read in 70_mod_attacked, but Valbor example convinced me its better this way.

3) Note that the bug with incorrectly restoring feat uses is fixed only for vanilla means. If you use function NWNXPatch_SetFeatTotalUses bug will happen again - it is advised to store and restore feat uses with your own script/persistency.

4) The fix for losing spell uses fixes fact that each time player unequipped item granting bonus spell slots for sorcerer/bard, spell slots were reduced by 1 no matter the item didn't provide its benefits. Also fixed connected bug that caused incorrectly losing spell uses when unequipping item with ability bonus as long as player had equipped another item granting bonus spell slots.

However, this bugfix so far from backwards compatibility reasons still decrement spell uses if this item is equipped for first time in game and unequipped before player rests (and make the item provide its benefits).

5) The new feature to run 70_mod_effects is described in advanced effect tutorial. As was explained in my previous post this feature could be also used to make OnDamaged event with a possibility to modify damage being done. For this, use new function NWNXPatch_TransferEffectValues - this is new and not mentioned in the tutorial yet, read comments in 70_mod_effects for further info.

6) New custom spellcaster features. When browsing PRC I quickly realized that while nwnx_patch enables to make custom spellcasters, it wouldn't be suitable for many custom spellcasters from PRC. Mainly because till now nwnx_patch divided spellcasters only to arcane and divine. Thus if someone would want to create a new base spellcaster Warlock who should cast invocations, prestige classes enhacing arcane spells would improved warlock spells as well. While this might be actually desired by many builders there also weren't way how to make a custom prestige class that would enhance warlock spells but not sorcerer spells. This took a long time to invent but I figured it out.
classes.2da now has two new columns
SpellType: column determine type of spells cast by this class, if **** the type of spell will match with bitflag 128 in CastType column, otherwise set to any string such as "Invocation". You can also set it to "Divine" or "Arcane" if you want to use opposite bitflag in CastType. That would allow to make a divine spellcaster that has arcane spell failure or arcane spellcaster that doesn't )
SpellProgTable: column controlls name of 2da that will be used by nwnx_patch to read spellcasting progression. Recommended prefix is cls_prog_*.2da. This is optional and it is not used for PM by default. As long as you are satisfied with columns ArcSpellMod and DivSpellMod there is no reason to use this. If you want extra options however, you will be suprised what you can do in this 2da.

This 2da has specific structure. First of all, values are determined for exact level of the class. This means you can specify spellcasting progression for each level. Thus you can make a class that will improve spellcasting progression from level 5 onwards. Also the 2da specifies exact value that gets added, not modifier, thus it is possible to make a class which will improve spellcasting progression by 2 for each 1 level etc.

Also, with colum AffectTwo if set to 1, class will improve spell progression of two classes of same type of spells (ie wiz+sorc, cler+druid), this is normally not the case and only highest class is affected.

Arcane column controlls progression of arcane spellcasters (bard, sorc, wizard), Divine column controlls progression of divine spellcasters (cleric,druid,palading,ranger). If you have spellcasters with custom type of spells such as the mentioned Warlock example, simply add new column with name matching the value of SpellType in classes.2da (that would be 'Invocation' for warlock).

Plugin package contains 4 example 2das with progression unfortunately I forgot to include only one example with custom type of spells.

Let me know if its comprehensible.

Thanks
very cool))))

[Valbor]

70_mod_damaged now works as i need, thanks

And there is a proposal concerning the function NWNXPatch_SetFeatTotalUses maybe in this add the number of epic dodges and deflect arrow, also as defensive roll? and the function to determine how many uses are left on a particular feat.
