the spells.2da is to update ndsman's pnp doom fix for warlocks. pretty quick change actually modified the target type field to include everything but trap triggers and that fixed the problem that was occuring in no pvp areas. this also updates the spells.2da for motb compatibility
What that means for eldritch doom:
In a full pvp area the spell will function like the following.
If you target yourself and cast it casts
If you target an enemy and cast you will move to that enemy and then cast
If you have no target and cast it will bring up the location targeting marker and when you click somewhere it will move you there then cast
(unfixed so far if you target a placeable and cast it wont move you to the placeable not sure why so when destroying doors and items you have to manually move there first)
In a No pvp area.
Normally personal range hostile spells wont cast in no pvp areas the only "legal" workaround I found was to change the valid targets to everything except trap triggers.
But you still cant target yourself and cast in a no pvp area you have to clear your target then cast it to get the location reticle then click the ground where you want to cast it and it casts.
Downside sometimes it takes a second to pick a target or to clear your target.
Upside now it works everywhere.
It can take some playing to get used to the way you have to target now but its worth it to have this spell function the way its supposed to :)
This spells.2da will only work if you are using ndsman's pnp eldritch doom fix which can be found here on the vault.
to install just unzip it to you override directory and have fun.
after looking over the code again I found that hindering blast and binding blast weren't useable with ndsman's original work so i modified it for full motb compatibility and now it works for those 2 newer blasts. I'm including 2 rar files 1 is an motb update only which requires you to already have ndsman's fixes in your override and the second is a full repackage of his original work with the modifications to make it motb compatible. let me knwo if anyone finds a problem i'll try and fix it.
