;Combat string definitions ; ;NOTE: Changes to this file will not take effect until you have used ; COMPILE.EXE to compile this file into monster.def. ; ;This file contains all of the combat strings used in LOD. (These strings ;used to be in the MONSTER.DEF file but were moved here) ; ;The strings are seperated into several "groups" which define what actions ;the strings apply to. A new group is designated by the word "NEWGROUP". ;Then you must use the "INCLUDE" parameter to specify what actions will ;be included. The format for include is as follows: ; ;INCLUDE HH 1 0 ; :: : :-- Defender code ; :: : ; :: :---- Attacker Code ; :: ; ::------ Action Code ; ;The Action code can be any of the following: ; ; HH - Hand (unarmed) hit ; HM - Hand Miss ; HA - Hand hit armor ; WH - Short range weapon hit ; WM - Short range weapon miss ; WA - Short range weapon hit armor ; RH - Ranged weapon hit ; RR - Ready Ranged weapon ; RA - Ranged weapon hit armor (added in version 3.50) ; RM - Ranged weapon missed (added in version 3.50) ; ;The two attacked/defender codes are as follows: ; ; 0 - Applies to all attacks; Monsters, other players, etc. except for player. ; 1 - The user ; 2 - Another player ; 3 - Animal monsters - Rats, Vultures, etc ; 4 - Humanoid monsters - Death warrior, Bart, etc ; ; 5-99 are sysop-definable. You may use them for whatever you want. ; ; 100+ are reserved. ; ;For example, "INCLUDE WM 1 0" means that the strings are for Weapon Miss and ;for when a player (code 1) hits anything (code 0). ; ;"INCLUDE RH 1 3" would be for Ranged Hit (RH), when the player (code 1) hits ;an animal (code 3) ; ; %1 attacker name ; %3 attacker weapon ; %5 attacker range weapon ; %7 attacker he/she/it ; %9 attacker his/her/its ; ; %2 defender name ; %4 defender weapon ; %6 defender range weapon ; %8 defender he/she/it ; %0 defender his/her/its ; NEWGROUP INCLUDE HH 1 0 You clobber %2 with your fist, sending %2 backwards to the ground!
