Is this freshwater or saltwater? Because alternatively you could breed a large amount of crocodiles and unleash them into the waters... indirect genocide.

Also, PAINSPELL is an inorganic constantly boiling material that causes severe pain.

Yes. Is there any method given for the human to use it? A reaction? A MATERIAL_EMISSION interaction?

If you look, I'm trying to make anything that's a wizard become able to use it.

Where? You posted the least relevant part of trying to make them use it.

That's the entire interaction. (I'm new to modding... Looked at necromancers for this)

You don't have an INTERACTION, you have an INORGANIC. The mummy curse example file has this as its main interaction:

Code: [Select]
[INTERACTION:EXAMPLE CURSE]
[I_TARGET:A:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE]
[IT_CANNOT_TARGET_IF_ALREADY_AFFECTED]
[IT_MANUAL_INPUT:victim]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
[IE_TARGET:A]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[IE_ARENA_NAME:Cursed]
[SYNDROME]
[CE_SKILL_ROLL_ADJUST:PERC:0:PERC_ON:20:START:0]
This is the example you want to follow. Here's what you want in interaction form:

Code: [Select]
[INTERACTION:PAIN_SPELL]
[I_TARGET:A:CREATURE]
[IT_LOCATION:CONTEXT_CREATURE]
[IT_CANNOT_TARGET_IF_ALREADY_AFFECTED]
[IT_MANUAL_INPUT:victim]
[I_EFFECT:ADD_SYNDROME]
[IE_TARGET:A]
[IE_IMMEDIATE]
[SYNDROME]
[CE_PAIN:SEV:1000000:PROB:100:START:0:PEAK:5:END:1000]

But, i really want it to just make a cloud of vapor (PAINSPELL) that heads torward the target so it is dodgeable
Also, it can't be used in adv mode

this guy has a lot of material emisisons including clouds of custome-material vapor.  make your guy immune to your painspell vapor, he'll get caught in it too if you use trailing vapor.

>> objects\text\book_instruction.txt:objects/text/secret_painspell.txt

some of your slashes are pointing the wrong way

what exactly are you trying and in what way is it not working.  obviously if you open up a random human in the arena he doesn't have the spell.  what else are you doing? 

do you want this to be a SECRET learned from books?  or you want it to be available to all humans, or a caste of humans?

You're missing CDI:INTERACTION:MATERIAL_EMISSION.
