---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-== Spell language
-
-* Comments: One-line comments using '#' or '//' as prefix
-* names vs. invocations: spells and anchors have both names
- and invocations. Names are used to refer to spells and
- anchors from within scripts without revealing their
- invocations.
-
-
-Each spell specification file consists of a sequence of definitions of
-globals, anchors, spells, and procedures.
-
-Types:
-------
- These are the primitive types:
- * int
- * string
- * dir (a direction: N, S, SE, NW etc.)
- * location (a single spot in the world)
- * entity (a PC, NPC, or monster)
- * area (a set of locations)
- * spell (a spell)
- * invocation (a spell instance)
- * fail (a separate type that arises implicitly when a function
- fails)
-
- `fail' arises in special circumstances in some functions, e.g. when
-trying to divide by zero, or when function parameters fail to
-type-check. When a fail value flows into an operation, than that
-operation is skipped. When a fail value flows into a function, then
-that function evaluates to fail, except for
-
- * if_then_else (which permits `fail' in its true or false branch)
- * failed (which returns true iff the argument is of type fail).
-
- We will use standard functional type notation:
-
- `int * string -> entity' denotes the type of a function that accepts
-an integer and a string and returns an entity. We use the return `()'
-for operations (which return nothing).
-
-Globals:
---------
- A `global' is a global variable, declared and defined in the
-same line:
-
- foo = "this is a string";
-
- Expressions can be arbitrary language expressions. Note that globals
-can only reference the values of globals defined earlier in the same
-program.
-
- There are two special globals:
-
- * min_casttime : int
- Minimal number of milliseconds of cast delay, no matter what any
- given spell may say. Cast delay is the time before the next spell
- can be cast.
-
- * obscure : int
- Chance of a character of a given spell to be obscured (masked out
- by an asterisk).
-
-
- Globals can also be defined as CONST (though this should not be done
-for the special globals listed above or they will not take effect.)
-CONST-defined globals cannot be re-defined.
-
-
-Expressions:
-------------
- Expressions occur in globals, anchors, spells, and procedures.
-Expressions evaluate to values of a given type. Expressions can be
-simple literals, area literals, infix expressions, function
-applications, or variable refecences.
-
-- Simple literals:
- * 42, 0xff: int literals
- * N, S, E, W, NE, NW, SE, SW : dir literals
- * "foo bar" : string literals
-
-- Area literals:
- * @("new_3-1.gat", 26, 26)
- This area denotes a single field on a map (new_3-1.gat,
- co-ordinates (26,26).
- * @("new_3-1.gat", 26, 26) @+ (10, 10)
- This area is 100 fields, stretching to a field of size 10x10 to
- the south and east of (26,26) in new_3-1.gat.
- * @("new_3-1.gat", 26, 26) towards S (5, 3)
- This area is a rectangular field of depth 3 and width 5 to the
- south of (26,26) in new_3-1.gat. `depth 3' here means that it
- stretches three fields to the south. `width 5' here means that it
- extends five fields to the east and five to the west of the
- specified coordinate, for a total width of 11.
- The only directions supported here are S, E, N, W.
-
-- Infix expressions:
- Infix expressions are special functions in which the operator is
- written between two expressions. Infix expressions largely follow
- the C precedence rules. The following infix operators are
- supported:
- * addition (+) (operates on ints, concatenates strings, and
- constructs the union of areas)
- * subtraction (- : int * int -> int)
- * multiplication (* : int * int -> int)
- * division (/ : int * int -> int, may fail)
- * modulo (% : int * int -> int, may fail)
- * comparison (<, >, >=, <=, =, <> : int * int -> int)
- Comparison operators generally work on ints and strings.
- (In)equality checks work on all values except for areas.
- Note that "==" and "!=" are available as alternatives for "=" and
- "<>" (respectively).
- * conjunction and disjunction (&&, || : int * int -> int). Note
- that these are not short-circuit.
- * Bitwise or (| : int * int -> int)
- * Bitwise and (& : int * int -> int)
- * Bitwise xor (^ : int * int -> int)
- * Shift left and right (<<, >> : int * int -> int)
-
-- Function applications:
- Function applications are written as
-
- f(arg1, ..., argn)
-
- where each `argi' is an arbitrary expression.
- For a complete list of Functions, see `functions' below.
-
-- Variable references:
- The expression (foo + 1) references a variable `foo' which must have
- been previously defined.
-
-
-Anchors:
---------
- Anchors are teleport anchors; spells can look them up by name. Each
-teleport anchor is written as
-
- TELEPORT-ANCHOR <id> : <invocation-string> = <location>
-
- For example:
-
- TELEPORT-ANCHOR tulimshar : "home" = @("new_3-1.gat", 26, 26) @+(10, 10)
-
- This maps the teleport anchor `tulimshar' to an area in new_3-1.gat
-binds it to the name "home". The function `anchor' can look up
-teleport anchors (cf. the function library).
-
-
-Spells:
--------
- Each spell is written either as
-
- [spell-modifiers] SPELL <id> : <name> = <spelldef>
-
- or as
-
- [spell-modifiers] SPELL <id> (<id> : <sty>) : <name> = <spelldef>
-
- For example,
-
- SPELL random_dance : "zxr" = ...
-
- creates a spell `random_dance' and makes it available under the
-invocation "zxr". The string `...' is not a valid <spelldef>; we will
-look at proper spelldefs below. An alternative example illustrates
-the use of parameters:
-
- SPELL shout (message : STRING) : "zzx" = ...
-
- This defines a spell `shout' (bound to invocation "zzx") that takes
-a parameter `message' of type STRING. Valid types are STRING and PC:
-PC parameters are automatically translated into a player character
-entity of that name, or mapped to the caster if the specified name
-does not map to a player character or is missing.
-
- The list of spell modifiers is short:
-
- * SILENT means that the spell's invocation will never be broadcast,
- not even obscured.
- * LOCAL means that the spell is bound to the location it was cast at
- and will not `travel' with the caster.
- * NONMAGIC means that the spell is not affected by the caster's ability
- to perform magic. Typically used for special (quest) keywords.
-
- Modifiers may be given in any order, but only once.
-
-- Spell bodies
-
- Spell bodies consist of three parts: LET bindings, spell guards and
- effects. LET bindings locally bind names to values. Spell guards
- are constraints that must be satisfied for the spell to be
- triggered. Effects describes what happens if the spell is
- successfully triggered. Spells may have multiple guards and
- effects.
-
- Consider the following example:
-
- SPELL plugh (message : STRING) : "zzx" =
- LET x = "kappa"
- y = "sigma"
- IN
- (MANA 1, CATALYSTS ["Pearl"]) => EFFECT message (caster, "First branch");
- | (MANA 20) => EFFECT message (caster, "Second branch")
-
- This defines a spell `plugh' with two let bindings (`x' bound to
- "kappa" and `y' bound to "sigma") and two `branches' which are
- tested in sequence. The first branch tests whether the caster has
- one spellpoint and owns a pearl-- if so, the effect of sending a
- message "First branch" to the caster is triggered.
-
- However, if the spell guard is not satisfied, the magic engine
- examines the second branch. Now, if the caster has 20 spellpoints,
- we INSTEAD trigger the effect of sending the message "Second branch"
- to the caster.
-
-- Spell guards
-
- Spell guards can be omitted; in that case, just use the effect
- itself. Otherwise they can be any of the following:
- * MANA x: Require x spellpoints to be present. If this spellguard
- is taken, x mana will be consumed implicitly. This requirement is
- cumulative.
- * CASTTIME x: Require that the caster spend x milliseconds until
- the next spell can be cast. This requirement is cumulative. If
- the total casttime for a spell is less than the global variable
- min_casttime, then the latter supercedes the specified spell cast
- delay.
- * REQUIRE <expr>: Test that the specified expression evaluates to
- nonzero and does not fail. Requirements are cumulative.
- * CATALYSTS <items>: Ensure that the caster possesses all specified
- items. This effect is cumulative.
- * COMPONENTS <items>: Ensure that the caster possesses all specified
- items. If the branch suceeeds, all items specified here are
- consumed. This effect is cumulative.
-
- Items can be specified as follows:
- * [ 700, 701 ] -- require one item of item ID 700 and one of 701.
- * [ 700, 3 * 701 ] -- require 1 item of item ID 700 and 3 of 701.
- * [ "Pearl" ] -- require one item named `Pearl' in the item DB.
-
- Spell guards can be combined as follows:
- * `or': disjunction. The first matching path is taken.
- * (a, ..., n): conjunction. a, n, and everything in between must be
- satisfied.
- * a => b: Implication. If `a' is satisfied, try to satisfy `b'.
- This operation is useful to combine different branches (see
- below.)
-
- Different branches of spell effects are separated by the vertical
- bar `|'. For example,
-
- SPELL plugh (message : STRING) : "zzx" =
- MANA 5 => ( (CATALYSTS ["Pearl"]) =>
- EFFECT message (caster, "First branch");
- | (MANA 20) =>
- EFFECT message (caster, "Second branch");)
-
- will always try to deduct 5 Mana points but then make a choice of
- whether to go to the first branch (if the player has `Pearl') or to
- the second (if the player does not have `Pear' but has another 20
- spell points, for a total of 25 spell points, all of which will be
- consumed in that case.)
-
-
-- Effects
-
- Effects describe what happens when a spell is triggered. Each
- spell has at least one EFFECT specification, which looks as follows:
-
- EFFECT <effectlist> [ ATTRIGGER <effectlist> ] [ ATEND <effectlist> ]
-
- The three parts are as follows:
- * EFFECT: All effects here are executed as soon as the spell is
- triggered.
- * ATEND: All steps described here are executed when the spell
- finishes. Note that the spell may remain active after all steps
- from the EFFECT section have been taken; this happens when the spell
- triggers a status change (using the `status_change' operation,
- as described in the operations library). In that case the spell
- will terminate only after all status changes have finished.
- The ATEND section is not called when the spell finishes due to the
- caster dying.
- * ATTRIGGER: This section is used only for the `override_attack'
- operation and described there.
-
- Before effects are executed, the engine defines the following
- variables:
-
- * The parameter (if any)
- * caster : entity (the caster of this spell)
- * spellpower : int (the caster's spellpower, normally 6 -- 198)
- * location : location (the location the spell is currently at)
- * self_spell : spell (the current spell)
- * self_invocation : invocation (the current spell instance)
-
- The engine can then execute the following effects from the effect list:
- * SKIP; # a no-op
- * ABORT; # Abort the spell, don't run ATEND, don't consume a
- # trigger charge (cf. `override_attack')
- * END; # Skip to the ATEND block
- * WAIT <expr>; # Wait <expr> milliseconds before continuing
- * <id> = <expr>; # Set <id> to the result of evaluating <expr>
- * (<s1> ... <sn>) # Execute statements <s1> through <sn> in sequence
- * IF <c> # Test condition <c>. If nonzero,
- THEN <s1> # execute <s1>. Otherwise,
- ELSE <s2> # execute <s2>.
- # The `ELSE' branch can be omitted.
-
- * FOREACH <k> <id> IN <expr> DO <s>
- # Evaluate <expr> to an area, find all entities in
- # the area that match <k>, randomise this list,
- # bind <id> to each in turn and execute <s>.
-
- Example:
-
- FOREACH ENTITY t IN rbox(location(caster), 20)
- DO aggravate(t, 0, caster);
- # This aggravates all entities within 20 paces of
- # the caster to attack the caster.
-
- Valid values for <k> are
- + ENTITY : PC or mob
- + PC
- + MOB
- + TARGET : mob, PC (but only if we are on a PvP map)
-
- * FOR <id> = <start> TO <stop> DO <stmt>
- # This will iterate from <start> to <stop> (inclusively), bind
- # <id> to the current iteration value, and execute <stmt>.
-
- * BREAK;
- # This will break out of the current FOR loop, FOREACH loop, or
- # procedure.
-
- * <id> ( <expr1>, ..., <exprn> );
- # This executes an operation. See `Operations', below, for a
- # list.
-
- * CALL <id> ( <expr1>, ..., <exprn> );
- # This will execute a procedure, after binding the actual
- # parameters from <expr1> to <exprn> to the formal procedure
- # parameters.
-
- * { ... }
- # This executes arbitrary eAthena script code. The following
- # variables script variables are bound implicitly:
- # - @caster_name$ is the name of the spellcaster
- # - @caster and @target are also bound, to useless values (sorry.)
- #
- # By default, script popup boxes are sent to the caster. This can
- # be overridden by setting the special `script_target' variable.
-
-Procedures:
------------
- Procedures are defined as
-
- PROCEDURE <id> ( <id>, ... , <id> ) = <effectlist>
-
- For example,
-
- PROCEDURE testproc(x) = message(caster, "foo(" + x + )");
- y = 10;
- x = 20;
-
- defines a procedure `testproc' with one formal parameter `x'.
- Procedure execution is nonrecursive and uses dynamic scoping. The
- latter means that it can modify variables in the caller's scope. In
- the above example, the assignment to `y' will be visible to the
- caller. The assignment to `x' however will be not be visible, since
- that assignment goes to the parameter and is therefore limited in
- scope to `testproc'. More precisely,
-
- EFFECT x = 0; y = 0; testproc(1);
- message(caster, "x=" + x + ", y=" + y);
-
- would print
-
- foo(1)
- x=0, y=10
-
- (note how the update to x is isolated from the caller.)

- Flags: 0x01: Hide PC'ss name when talking
- 0x02: Shroud vanishes when player picks something up
- 0x04: Shroud vanishes when player talks
- The shroud will not affect players in visible range until the
- entity has left and re-entered their field of vision. This can be
- enforced by warping.
-
- + unshroud : entity -> ()
- Counter a shroud.
-
- + message : entity * string -> ()
- Send a message to the entity.
-
- + messenger_npc : location * int
- * string * string * int -> ()
- messenger_npc(location, image, npc_name, message, duration)
- creates a messenger NPC looking like the `image' at `location',
- with name `npc_name' and delivering the `message' when clicked
- upon. The NPC disappears after the `duration' in ms has expired.
-
- + move : entity * dir -> ()
- Move the entity into the specified direction, unless that
- direction is blocked.
-
- + warp : entity * location -> ()
- Warp entity to specified location.
-
- + spawn : area * entity * int * int * int * int -> ()
- spawn(area, owner, mob_id, attitude, count, lifetime) spawns for a
- limited `lifetime' (in ms) a total of `count' monsters of kind
- `mob_id' in `area'. `attitude' specifies how they behave:
- 0 : attack everyone
- 1 : be friendly
- 2 : attack enemies of `owner' and give XP to `owner' if successful
-
- + banish : entity -> ()
- If the entity was spawned by the `spawn' operation, eliminate it.
-
-
- + status_change : entity * int * int
- * int * int * int * int -> ()
- status_change(entity, status, v1, v2, v3, v4, duration) initiates
- a status change. The precise status change (and the meaning of
- `v1', `v2', `v3', `v4') varies depending on `status'. This
- operation may delay spell termination (and the ATEND effect).
- ATEND can therefore be used to notify the caster that the status
- change has finished.
-
- + stop_status_change : entity * int
- Stops a status change
-
- + override_attack : entity * int * int
- * int * int *int * int -> ()
- override_attack(entity, charges, delay, range, icon, animation, stop)
- overrides the entity's current attack (only for PCs). The entity
- will have `charges' attacks that instead result in calling the
- ATTRIGGER effect for this spell. When this operation is called,
- the spell environment (variables etc.) is cloned into a separate
- invocation. This special invocation will be triggered every time
- the entity tries to attack, until they have run out of charages (at
- which time the previous behaviour is restored.)
- `delay' specifies the attack delay.
- `range' specifies the attack range as shown in the client GUI.
- `icon' is the ID of a status-effect ID that will be displayed
- while the spell is in effect.
- `animation' is the attack animation ID that should be used.
- `stop' decides whether attacking should stop once the spell is out
- of charges (1) or continue (0). (Note: this doesn't properly work,
- possibly due to client issues. Always use 0.)
-
- Note that if the ATTRIGGER effect ABORTs, no charge will be
- consumed.
-
- ATTRIGGER can refernece the player's target via the `target'
- variable.
-
- Example:
-
- SPELL tshuffle : "zvp" =
- (MANA 1, CATALYSTS ["Pearl"]) =>
- EFFECT
- override_attack(caster, 3, 500, 10, 700, 31);
- ATTRIGGER
- IF (not (line_of_sight(location, location(target))))
- THEN (message (caster, "No line of sight!"); ABORT;)
- FOR i = 0 TO 10 DO (move(target, random_dir(0)););
-
- This overrides the caster's attack for three attacks (attack delay
- 500, range 10) to instead randomly move around any entity that the
- player tries to attack by up to 11 paces.
-
- + create_item : entity * int * int -> ()
- | entity * string * int -> ()
- create_item(entity, item, count) gives the `entity' `count'
- instances of `item'. As usual, `item' can be either a string name
- or an item ID.
-
- + aggravate : entity * int * entity -> ()
- aggravate (victim, mode, target) causes the `victim' to
- mode = 0: attack `target'
- mode = 1: become universally permanently aggressive
- mode = 2: both of the above
-
- + injure : entity * entity * int * int -> ()
- injure(attacker, defender, hp, sp) causes damage to the defender
- from the attacker (possibly killing, giving XP etc.), unless the
- defender is immortal (NPC) or a PC on a non-PvP map.
-
- + emote : entity * int -> ()
- Issues the specified emotion to the specified entity.
-
- + set_script_variable : entity * string * int -> ()
- Sets a script variable to the specified value
-
- + set_hair_colour : entity * int -> ()
- Sets the hair colour of the specified entity to the specified
- value (must be a PC).
-
- + set_hair_style : entity * int -> ()
- Adjusts the hair style of a PC.
-
- + drop_item : location * (int | string) * int * int -> ()
- drop_item(place, "name", count, duration) drops `count' items
- (where count may be zero) of name "name" at `place'. The items
- vanish again after `duration'.
-
- + drop_item_for : location * (int | string)
- * int * int * entity * int -> ()
- drop_item_for(place, obj, count, duration, owner, delay) works
- like drop_item(place, obj, count, duration), except that the item
- can only be picked up by `owner' for the next `delay'
- milliseconds, modulo pickup rules (spousal pickup, out-of-range).
-
- + gain_experience : entity * int * int * int -> ()
- gain_experience(player, base_xp, job_xp, reason) gives expereince
- points to `player'. If reason is 0, they are handed out normally,
- but if reason is 1, then those experience points are NOT added to
- the pool of experience points that healers can draw from `player'.

-Script API updates:
--------------------
-Two new script API functions are available:
-
- * getspellinvocation : string -> string
- Looks up a spell by spell ID and returns the spell's invocation.
- * getanchorinvocation : string -> string
- Looks up a teleport anchor by anchor ID and returns the invocation.
