Auto-Targeting Spells?

[mrmiguu]

How can I make a spell that auto-targets the NPC without clicking on it or attacking it before hand? I got the rest down, just this auto-target stuff is confusing to me, im sure theres loops involved.

if i was trying to do this id recall the positions of all NPC's on the map using a loop and work out which NPC was closest by adding the difference in x then y, then send a targeting packet based on which was closest.

So I can bet that this will require some source edits? Thanks for your help btw, I appreciate it.

i suspect so, not sure how good the targeting controls are via scripts.

No, pretty sure every command baron mentioned can be done in sadscript.

I hope you mean EE 2.7…
That's because of a bug that makes any spell that's not an area spell not work properly.  It's one of the only bugs I find constantly in EE 2.7, but it's still a pain. 

Also, one post is enough.  You don't have to post the exact same thing 4 times.  That's actually considered spamming.

and is there a posibility to solve the bug? … how can i make the spells to work?... :sad:

P.S. i wrote 9 same messages like this, so ... not 4... youre mistake... :P (srry for that, i didnt know)
