Description
Killer Anti-Magic Zones v1.0 by Axe Murderer
==============================================
This erf adds three scripts and a trigger to your module. The trigger is available on your custom trigger palette in the Special Custom 1 category after installation. Paint them down to prevent creatures from being able to use spells while standing inside the trigger zone. This includes the use of potions, items, etc. Anything that gets spell hooked will be blocked. It does not block item properties like enhancements to attack or damage or bonus feats and stuff like that, they will remain active -- its only the spells that get blocked.
Each trigger can be separately configured, via a variable set on the trigger, to affect both PCs and NPCs, or just PCs only. By default only PCs are affected. Note "NPCs" includes a PC's associates (hench, summon, companion, familiar, follower, etc).
Note also that "spell blockage" does not mean the caster is prevented from casting the spell, using the item, drinking the potion, etc. Rather, it means that the magic always fails to fire off. No projectile. No impact. No effects or damage. The caster will still go thru the casting or drinking or reading etc motions, and will lose one of his per/day uses or item charges or the potion or scroll, it will just be wasted and inneffective.
The triggers are compatible with all modules that do not use a spellhooking script, as well as with all modules that do use one -- except those that dynamically change the spellhook script variable X2_S_UD_SPELLSCRIPT on the fly during play. If you do that you'll have to tweak my scripts. Basically if you do the standard common recommended spellhook setup procedure, added in the toolset module variables or in code from OnModuleLoad, then you're safe.
Testing of this package was minimal, but it seemed to worked ok in single player mode.
These triggers are meant to be paint-and-play. You shouldn't need to do anything to them property wise after painting them down except maybe to change that "PC_Only" variable if you want it to affect NPCs too.
Requirements
------------
KAMZ v1.0 requires the original game only (no expansion paks SOU, HOTU, although it should work fine with any combination of them), however you must be updated to v1.69 or later. KAMZ is completely independent of all hak paks that do not employ dynamically designating a spellhook script, which is probably 99.99999% of haks you can find if not all of them. Therefore it is seamlessly compatible with virtually every hak pak combination possible.
The package adds a trigger to your custom palette which can be used to designate a portion of an area map as an anti-magic zone where all spell-based magic will fail.

Thanks AXE.
Downloaded, and tested works great.
Now I am pairing it with a Prefab Wizards school.
Easy, to paint. Now to spring on my friends... MUHAAAAA.
