attack filter problem

[Rhuvaen]

I'm trying to change the ranged attack of a Rogue unit and have tried several things with the attack filter. In all cases, all the existing attacks were changed, so the filter failed to identify the correct attack.

Try 1:

Code: Select all

        [effect]
          apply_to=attack
          [filter]
            range=ranged
          [/filter]
          set_name="crossbow"
          set_special=marksman
          set_type=pierce
          increase_damage=1
        [/effect]

Try 2:

Code: Select all

        [effect]
          apply_to=attack
          [filter]
            name=knife
          [/filter]
          set_name="crossbow"
          set_special=marksman
          set_type=pierce
          increase_damage=1
        [/effect]

What's wrong?

The weapon filter shouldn't go inside a [filter] block.

The weapon filter shouldn't go inside a [filter] block.

Har. 'tis confusing, when you can go without [filter] and when not (maybe because I'm a non-smoker ).

Many thanks for a question promptly answered!

I agree, it's sometimes annoying that the filtering behaviour is not consistent. Although I don't think there are that many places where the [filter] tag is not used for a filter, so maybe this could easily be fixed some time in the future.
