Normal is like the magic missile spell

Line 1 - Caster sees on success: You cast %s at %s for %d damage!
[spell][target][damage]
Line 2 - Target sees on success: %s casts %s at you for %d damage!
[caster][spell][damage]
Line 3 - Room sees on success: %s casts %s at %s for %s damage!
[caster][spell][target][damage] -- Note here the %s (and not %d) for damage

Its a setting in the spell database, You'll see it used in 'hit' type spells.

Nope.  A great deal of the verbage is still wrong.

Post by: ms233 on October 28, 2008, 07:33:53 AM
Here's what the mage sees:

You make a complex circling gesture!
A flurry of icy blades slice and dice glacial blades for 291 damage!
The roc lets out a high pitched scream, and falls to the floor, lifeless.
You gain 200 experience.
*Combat Off*

Here's what someone else in the room sees:

Mithrax makes a complex circling gesture!
A flurry of icy blades slice and dice Mithrax for glacial blades damage!
The roc lets out a high pitched scream, and falls to the floor, lifeless.
You gain 200 experience.
*Combat Off*
