<Builder910> Hi everyone
<ExodusDeath2> Ok, How do you get all Pardigms working? This is my First go around with the Compex Spell System
* Kodos|Zzz is now known as Kodos
<Builder910> I would suggest reading his fourm thread
<Builder910> I believe all the necessary information is there
<ExodusDeath2> Slightly confusing. XD
* Udaldor is now known as UdAFK
<TheMadman> Alright, the basics of the complex spell system.
* UdAFK is now known as Udaldor|busy
<TheMadman> First, you need a paradigm. That is the melee, projectile, self, and tool parts.
<TheMadman> They decide what the spell effects.
<TheMadman> Next, you have the effects. They decide what the spell does. These come in fire, wind, earth, and ice.
* TPB ([email protected]) has joined
<TheMadman> After that, you have the modifiers. They influence the effect of the spell. Say a projectile-wind- offensive spell pushes the target around. They come in Default, Offensive, Defensive, and Environmental.

* WayofTime ([email protected]) has joined
* Faerie gives channel operator status to WayofTime
<TheMadman> After that go the Enhancements. They buff the spells, basically.
<TheMadman> Now then, I must be off for a minute. Complex spells 101 will return when I get back.

<Builder910> o7 I spot a wild Way in the background!
<ExodusDeath2> Hmm
<ExodusDeath2> Can you get two effects on a Spell? Say a Tool, that's a Pick and a shovel?
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Alright, returning to the lecture... Any questions or confusion so far?
<ExodusDeath2> Above what you wrote lol
<ExodusDeath2> XD
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Yes, you can chain effect. After the "Enhancements" part you can place another effect.
<WayofTime> ExodusDeath2: Yes
* big_Xplo|Off is now known as big_Xplosion
<ExodusDeath2> Hm. Interesting spell System.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> It is then build like the last part, you just skip the paradigm since that can never change mid spell.
<ExodusDeath2> So it must go in order, then you can start a new "Chain"?
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Yes and no.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> The "Modifier" and "Enhancement" parts can be skipped.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Skipping them has the spell go to default. No boost from enhancements, and the "Default" effect for the spell part.
<ExodusDeath2> Tool-Earth Former -Power-. Then Offensive.?
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Swap the power then offensive.
<ExodusDeath2> Aaah..
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Enhancements come after effects.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Now then, Enhancements have a limit. You'll notice there are three of each type that you can craft.
<ExodusDeath2> Hm, On the Complex list for Tool, It has Earth Former Default,power,Potency.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> The "Power" and "Potancy" parts are there to say what happens when you add those enhancements.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> You'll notice that all spells have that. Enhancements are still purely optional.
<ExodusDeath2> Aaah.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Anyway, back to enhancment limitations. Every enhancement added raises the cost of the spell per cast(Aside from the ones made to lower it).
<ExodusDeath2> So i'd need... Tool-Earth Former-Default-Power, Offensive-Default- , Defensive-Default-Power.?
<ExodusDeath2> Comma Seperating the new Chains
<WayofTime> Offensive and Default are incompatible
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> No, it would need to look more like this...
<ExodusDeath2> Slightly confusing.  But confusing is good.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Tool-Earth Former-Default-Power, Earth Former-Offensive-Default- , Earth Former-Defensive-Default-Power
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Wait, forgot to remove the defaults...
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Tool-Earth Former-Default-Power, Earth Former-Offensive , Earth Former-Defensive-Power
<WayofTime> ^
<ExodusDeath2> So, Each chain i need a New Earthformer?
<WayofTime> Yes
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Correct.
<ExodusDeath2> Interesting
<WayofTime> But not a new Tool paradigm
<WayofTime> You COULD put a fire in too
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Or a wind.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Or an Ice. You have options.
<ExodusDeath2> Yea i was thinking of Wind for the Axe to have a MuiltiTool.
<ExodusDeath2> So, Instead of Earth former for that chain pit wind for the beginning?
<WayofTime> Or add it at the end
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Or at any new part.
<ExodusDeath2> Aah.  Quesion, How many Powers are required to speed up the speed of mining to say.. Little past Diamond speed?
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> It is flexible. Just remember that order does matter for some effects.
<WayofTime> Not many tool ones
<WayofTime> But yeah, pretty much
<ExodusDeath2> Thihnking about the Mats. Holy cow.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> I recall from my testing it was two.
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> Yes, these spells can get rather large.
<ExodusDeath2> Thats a good thing in my opinion
* WayofTime is now known as a|Way
<a|Way> Time to think up these lazorz
<Mrvideogame||TheMadman> And the best part: If you don't like the spell, you can take it apart to use in other spells.
* You are now known as TheMadman
<Builder910> Lazorz are shiny Way
<ExodusDeath2> I have a hollowed out wall that im going to put my spell is as a Decoration and a spell XD
<justastranger|Firefall> just bury the spell somewhere :P
<ExodusDeath2> XD Nah, Looks too cool to bury lol
<ExodusDeath2> Whats a Fast way to pull out of a Alter? my Compressed Hopper, is little bit too slow lol
<TheMadman> The one from pneumaticcraft? Could you not just give it a few speed upgrades?
* Fenn is now known as Jergrill
<ExodusDeath2> True. then i'd have to make some Cake lol XD
* Jergrill is now known as Fenn
<TheMadman> I've built a giant redstone and botania powered monster to autocraft cake, just to then feed it to a flower. Crafting cake isn't that bad.
<Builder910> I suggest Transfer nodes if you have them
