[beta 13] IWDEE: cure spell racial restrictions


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is only relevant if the race component is installed.

In IWDEE, spells like Heal, Restoration, Cure/Cause Wounds, paladin Lay On Hands, etc. don't work on nonliving or "extraplanar" creatures. (note: there's no level drain without mods in IWD, unless you summon the vampires with Limited Wish)

I'm just noting that Aasimar is currently not on the list of restricted races for this. Tiefling and Genasi (as "Genie") are restricted as part of the unmodded game. For fairness, they should all be restricted together, or none restricted.

Also, an oversight. If "minor abilities" is installed, the subspells for paladin Lay On Hands have the effects for racial restrictions. However, the resource field for those effects still point to the main spell (SPCL211.SPL), so they don't do anything.

Note that fixing this may cause some potential weirdness, with some races not being able to heal themselves with Lay On Hands. For comparison, monk Lay On Hands does not have racial restrictions. However, that's only castable on self.

Since AFAIR there are no tieflings in IWDEE, I think adding them is probably an oversight. In any case, I didn't intend planetouched to be resistant to healing. Will address.
