Post subject:  Healing Undead
Okay so I reported this bug oh...about 3 years ago when I last played a necromancer and I feel the need to do it again since it was not fixed when it should have been.

cl watch

A strange compulsion keeps you from attacking an undead watchman.

[HP: 33%] [ME: 36%] [PE:100%]
> cl watch

You utter the words, 'qkadagz dies'.
(Cause Light)
An undead watchman is renewed.

This is -my- pet, and I am HEALING it not hurting it, this is a serious problems with necromancers and has been for as long as I can remember because it's virtually impossible to 'heal' undead in they have any decent level of sanctuary. Last time I reported this was then I was trying to have the dracolich tank a guardian with a priest harming the dracolich...and he got maybe one harm off in the entire battle?

Also if you are a trying to heal and undead with harm or any other "aggressive" spell it breaks sanctuary cast on you, even though you are not doing anything aggressive.

Not only that, but if you try to use cure light or any healing spell on undead and fail, combat won't start.

Be thankful you can heal your pets.

It's a simple piece of logic required for a few spells to fix this.

c <healing> target

if (target == undead)
remove sanc if there
check enemy sanc if there
resulting spell
engage combat

else

resulting spell

c <harming> target

if (target == alive)
remove sanc if there
check enemy sanc if there
resulting spell
engage combat

else

resulting spell

There ya go! :drunk:

I'm pretty sure D doesn't need help with the logic, thanks for playing though.

Then why hasn't a simple fix like this been implemented?

Thank YOU for playing. :roll:

Probably because he has better things to do. There is no way he's been running SK for this long and need the help you've provided.

The code for targetting spells is a completely different system than the actual effect of the spell. All that system knows is that it is an aggressive spell. I could make the changes, but it is not as simple as you imply.

Then the flaw is not in my logic, but in how the system treats the aggressiveness of spells. ;)
