ok so i got kinda bored and decided to make a guide on how to add wep. skills into your server.

ok so lets begin, FIRST OF ALL, THIS GUIDE WAS! AND I MEAN WAS MADE BY ME, AND ONLY ME! do not copy plx O.O ty.

ok so....first of all the files that we'll need
1. the list of the skills (In powersource, you will find a txt file called "Commands" you go all of the skill lists there)
2. COItems.txt which can be found in powersource debug folder.

aww btw you'll need brains to...not a lot but u'll need some.

ok so....i'm going to use spear as an example
1.Open C# and open Character.cs and Database.cs (In powersource you need to open the external database, but i dun wanna explain how to do that)
2.in character.cs look for

int WepType = Other.WeaponType(uint.Parse(Splitter[0]));

3.You will see a the following code

if(WepType == 480)
{
if (Skills.Contains((short)7020)){byte SkillLvl = (byte)Skills[(short)7020];
byte Chance = (byte)ExternalDatabase.SkillAttributes[(int)7020][(int)SkillLvl][5];
if (Other.ChanceSuccess(Chance))
{
UseSkill(7020, 0, 0, 0);
Use = true;
}
}
}

Copy the code and paste it after the last "}"

4.Where you see

 if (WepType == 480)

edit the "480" to the spear weptype which is the 3 first numbers of any weapon in "COItems.txt" which in this case is "560" then it should look something like that

if (WepType == 560)

5.Where you see "7020" in the code, you edit it to the skill number you want the spear to be using, which in this case its speed gun "1260".

6.When your done the code should look something like that

                else if (WepType == 560)
                {
                    if (Skills.Contains((short)1260))
                    {
                        byte SkillLvl = (byte)Skills[(short)1260];
                        byte Chance = (byte)ExternalDatabase.SkillAttributes[(int)1260][(int)SkillLvl][5];
                        if (Other.ChanceSuccess(Chance))
                        {
                            UseSkill(1260, 0, 0, 0);
                            Use = true;
                        }
                    }
                }

7.Copy the code, and search for

else if (WepType == 490 && !Use)

then after the code, paste the code that we just copied and add "&& !Use" to "(WepType == 560)" so it will look like that

(WepType == 560 && !Use)

so you the code should look like that

else if (WepType == 560 && !Use)
                {
                    if (Skills.Contains((short)1260))
                    {
                        byte SkillLvl = (byte)Skills[(short)1260];
                        byte Chance = (byte)ExternalDatabase.SkillAttributes[(int)1260][(int)SkillLvl][5];
                        if (Other.ChanceSuccess(Chance))
                        {
                            UseSkill(1260, 0, 0, 0);
                            Use = true;
                        }
                    }
                }

so you should have 2 codes, now to the kind of annoying part
1.go to Database.cs and search for

public static void DefineSkills()

2.you will see that

SkillAttributes[7020] = new ushort[10][];[7020]

3.Copy the whole code, and paste it after that.
4.A lil leason what each of the things in

SkillAttributes[7020][0] = new ushort[6] { 0, 2, 0, **** 0, 20 };

mean.
The first 0, is skill type
Then the 2, is the range
The next 0, is sector
The **** is Heal or in this case the Damage, depends on the skill type you use
The next 0, Mana Cost/Or stamina which in this case, none of them so its 0
And the last one the 20, is the activationn Chance

There are 12 Types, here they are :
RangeSkillMelee = 0,
RangeSkillRanged = 1,
SingleTargetSkillMagic = 2,
TargetRangeSkillMagic = 3,
DirectSkillMelee = 4,
RangeSectorSkillRanged = 5,
SingleTargetSkillMagicHeal = 6,
SelfUseSkill = 7,
BuffSkill = 8,
RangeSkillHeal = 11,
SingleTargetSkillMelee = 12,
SingleTargetSkillRanged = 13

5.Now lets get back to the guide, edit all of the "7020's" to the skill that we just got for the spear, which is "1290"

Debug it all, and it should work, enjoy and hope it helped any one

Yea i know, but MeeleSkillRange is a skill attack like 'Rage' so it attacks everyone in a range of 2 or 6 or ... (in what ever you set the range)
And SpeedGun attacks in a range on a line! not in a range circle! and if he uses speedgun then the image of speedgun goes up! It doesnt go the way you are attacking a beast! im trying my best to combine
MeelSkillRange (like rage -> skill with clubs) to combine with skill like ScentSword or FastBlade (Skill that attacks on a line but only when the player wants it)... if im done creating the new skilltype ill post this! Wish me luck!
