Setting Monster Resistances

[David Ward]

We're trying to make monsters that have *some* resistances to certain elements, but are unable to find anything other than all-or-nothing resistances.

For example:

Code: Select all

		{
			class = "Monster",
			meshName = "shrakk_torr_mesh",
			health = 50,
			protection = 15,
			evasion = 10,
			exp = 40,
			immunities = { "sleep", "blinded" },
			resistances = { shock = "weak" },
		},

Under "resistances = { shock = "weak" }", this can be set to "weak" or "vulnerable" to make the monster less resistant, or it can be set to "absorb" or "immune" to make them 100% resistant.

Is there any way to make this monster, say, 50% resistant to shock damage? That is, any shock damage that hits it is reduced by half.

"resist"

Haha is that seriously it?

Code: Select all

resistances = { shock = "resist" },

That will give 50% resist, okay. I'm guessing then that there is no way to specify 25% or 75% resistance, say, or really any resistance between 0 and 100?

The ones I know of are :

• vulnerable
• weak
• resist
• immune
• absorb

Indeed, those are the ones I know also. Okay, all good. Thank you!
