Another aoe script question

[Legacy_Surek]

               

Is there any way to turn this script into an area effect script?

I would like it to effect multiple creatures at one time.

Yes, it can be made as an AoE.

 

I added comments in the code.  It does compile, but I didn't test it... and I'm definitely out of practice atm.  So, if something doesn't work, let me know.

 

void main()
{
    object oPC;
 
if ((GetObjectType(GetItemActivatedTarget())!=OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE))
{
    SendMessageToPC(GetItemActivator(), "Improper use of item!");
    return;
}
 
    oPC = GetItemActivator();
 
    object oTarget;
    oTarget = GetItemActivatedTarget();
 
effect eEffect;
//I'm not certain, but I think granting 100% spell failure to SPELL_SCHOOL_GENERAL
//covers all the schools at once.
eEffect = EffectSpellFailure(100, SPELL_SCHOOL_GENERAL);
 
 
//I'm making a glow visual effect that will be tied to the spell failure effect
//so that you can see visually that the effect is applied
effect eGlow = EffectVisualEffect(VFX_DUR_GLOW_PURPLE);
//Linking effects means that when one effect ends, so does the other.
//And, it allows you to link multiple effects together and apply them with a single statement
//instead of separately
effect eLink = EffectLinkEffects(eEffect,eGlow);
 
 
 
//I'll get the target's location to use as the center of the AoE
location lTarget = GetLocation(oTarget);
 
 
 
//re-using oTarget variable
oTarget = GetFirstObjectInShape(SHAPE_SPHERE,RADIUS_SIZE_HUGE/*you can put a number here too, like 12.0 or whatever*/,
lTarget,FALSE,OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE);
 
//Loop thru all CREATURE-type targets in a sphere with radius size HUGE
while(GetIsObjectValid(oTarget))
{
    ApplyEffectToObject(DURATION_TYPE_TEMPORARY, eLink, oTarget, 60.0f);
 
  oTarget = GetNextObjectInShape(SHAPE_SPHERE,RADIUS_SIZE_HUGE,lTarget,FALSE,OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE);
}
 
 
ApplyEffectToObject(DURATION_TYPE_INSTANT, EffectVisualEffect(VFX_FNF_HOWL_WAR_CRY), oPC);
 
 
}
