Magic Resistance in Planescape: Torment

[Drew]

I'm trying to get non-hostile mage spells like Power of One to bypass MR. The problem, from what I can tell, is that everything already looks OK. This, and other non-hostile Mage spells, are flagged correctly and should be bypassing MR but they are not. I thought maybe this was a hardcoded thing, but then I noticed that non-hostile Priest Spells always bypass MR. My question, I guess, is in two parts.

 

1. Why do non-hostile Priest spells bypass MR when non-hostile Mage spells do not? (Hostile priest splls do not bypass MR, by the way.)

 

2. How do I correct this? (Or, more acurrately, can I correct this?)

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Actually i have no idea how these spells (strength of on, improved strength) work.

They don't have any opcode to affect target creature's strength???

Figuring out what spells in Torment actually do from looking at them is damn near impossible, isn't it? My plan B is to just remove FFG's MR and remove the MR from a couple of other auspiciously beneficial items. That way, casting non-hostile magic will work most of the time.
