I think in your original post the [IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_ITEM] should be [IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE].

Oh yeah, forgot to update the script.

[Alluvian_Est-Endrati]

One solution does come to mind, but it would require more modding work in the creation of a custom creature. How it would work is thus: The custom creature would be one that bursts into flames and dies under normal circumstances. What would be done then is to utilize a syndrome to change the intended target into that creature:

Code: [Select]

[INTERACTION:BURN_EVIL]
[I_TARGET:A:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE]
IT_REQUIRES:OPPOSED_TO_LIFE

[IE_IMMEDIATE]

Here is such a creature:

In arena mode the victim will burst into flames (and run around on fire & smoking) and will be very easy to kill in the very few tests I have run so far.

Will doing this without any body parts defined cause them to keep their original shape, just made out of burning flesh?

Will doing this without any body parts defined cause them to keep their original shape, just made out of burning flesh?

No.  You're defining a totally separate creature.  Just like werewolves.

[monk12]

Although it seems like you should be able to turn their flesh into a substance that spontaneously combusts...

[WillowLuman]

Maybe it will turn them into a burning creature, with no shape (like cave blobs), called "burning slag" that has it's vital tissues set to a mat that instantly evaporates

EDIT: anyone know why pressing "u" in creature creation wont let me cycle through syndromes?

I notice you don't have any brackets around IT_REQUIRES:OPPOSED_TO_LIFE.  Is this just for testing purposes?

[WillowLuman]

Apparently OPPOSED_TO_LIFE is invalid for targeting, but I am unable to test interactions in arena.
Here's my updated code:
