Unnecessary Confirmation Prompt when reloading spells in Icewind Dale

[Guest Isk]

In IWD only (not in BG) there is a confirmation prompt when trying to replace a memorized spell with another one. I cannot find any way to disable that prompt. It causes inconvenience when reloading spells.

I don’t think that can be a bug: it’s a deliberate (albeit probably unwise) UI design choice.

Do you know how to remove it?

There is a settings 'More Confirmation Prompts' (under Options/Gameplay/Feedback). The description says 'Prompt before removing memorized spells or resting at inns'.

But it does not work for IWDEE as the UI does not check the state of the option and will always show the prompt when removing memorized spells.

For me it's definitively a bug but I don't know if it's something the EE Fixpack wan't to fix (I have fixed it in my UI mod for IWDEE but it's a full UI overwrite not a fixpack).

 

For information, the code inside UI.menu for IWDEE is this function:

function unmemorizeSpell(spell)
    if(spell.isPlaceholder) then return end
    showMageMemorizationFlash = false
    if(spell.castableCount >= spell.memorizedCount) then
        --Unmemorizing a castable spell.
        popup2Button(11824, 'REMOVE_BUTTON', function() finishUnmemorizeSpell(spell) end)
    else
        finishUnmemorizeSpell(spell)
    end

end

And the fourth line should be change to this to take the option into account.

if(spell.castableCount >= spell.memorizedCount and Infinity_GetOption(41, 9) == 1) then

Oh, that’s different. If there’s a non-functional button in the UI it’s definitely a bug and we should fix it.

Thanks lefreut, works perfectly

Fixed.
