But the point of saying I'm not a lawyer is to let the reader know that it is not an expert opinion. That point seems a little redundant with your message. ObCircle: One of the things I have encountered lately while working on spells is the fact that affect wear off messages are tied to the spells and not the affects themselves. With more complicated spells, it is sometimes difficult to come up with a generic message that shows all of the affects wearing off. This is especially difficult when a spell has multiple affects that do not wear off at the same time. I ended up implementing customized wear off messages, which finally gave me an excuse to implement ASCII player files for storing the messages. This may have been overkill, but it seems to me that at a minimum, we should implement wear off messages for AFF_BLIND, AFF_INVISIBLE, etc that are not tied to specific spells. Thoughts?
