OK well I can tell ya the general places to hit with this and alittle bit
of theory, but the way I did mine is rather hard to understand and even so
its not completely finished:> Anyways, pretty much as you probley know
your gonna have to add a skill called dodge, block, etc. Than in fight.c
inside the perform violence function you are gonna have to think about
this kinda backwards cause this routine is called when were talking about
doing damage. With this thought in mind you are going to want to check if
your victim has the skill Dodge and if they do run a variable number like
so:
if(!IS_NPC(FIGHTING(ch)) && GET_SKILL(FIGHTING(ch),SKILL_DODGE)) {
temp_prob=GET_SKILL(FIGHTING(ch),SKILL_DODGE);
prob= number(1,120);
if(temp_prob>prob)
{
defense_type=SKILL_DODGE;
}
}
NOTE: I have to work on that number thing because its appears the victim
affected dodges just alittle too much.
ALSO NOTE: at the top where everything else is intilized you must add this
too:
int defense_type = 0;
int temp_prob, prob = 0;
So lastly, depending on weather or not you have multi-hit or not, you
could do two of the following things:
1) add an extra claus before the hit at the end of your routine that if
the defense type is = to zero hit, because the defense type won't be 0 if
they are sappose to dodge.
2) If U have Multi-hit just simply put an apr -- in I think within your
check at the top to see if your enemy is able to dodge.
Um thats the general behind it, I originally seen this in the pheonixMUD
base on circleMUD 2.0 src and thats how I grasped the concept. Um I hope
this helps. LAterz.
