// i_rechargeItem_ci
// by Brendan Bellina
// June 2008

// OnCastSpellAt handler for rechargeItem
// This script is executed automatically when a spell is cast at the item
// To trigger properly the name of the script MUST be "i_" + itemtag + "_ci"

// Regulates item recharging (based in part on OC script i_nw_wmgst003_ci)

// Local variable Maximum_Charges can be used to limit the number of charges. If set
// to 0 or not set then the default maximum is 20. If set to -1 then there is no
// maximum. If set greater than 0 then that is the maximum.

void main()
{

	object oItem = GetSpellTargetObject();
	int nCurrentCharges = GetItemCharges(oItem);
	int nDefaultMaxCharges = 20; // default max charges if local int Maximum_Charges not > 0
	int nMaximumCharges = GetLocalInt(oItem, "Maximum_Charges");
	if (nMaximumCharges == 0)
		nMaximumCharges = nDefaultMaxCharges;

	if (nMaximumCharges == -1 || nCurrentCharges < nMaximumCharges)
	{
		int nSpell2DARowNum = GetSpellId();
		int nSpellLevel = StringToInt(Get2DAString("spells", "Wiz_Sorc", nSpell2DARowNum));
	
		if (nSpellLevel == 0)
		{
			nSpellLevel = StringToInt(Get2DAString("spells", "Innate", nSpell2DARowNum));
		}
		if (nMaximumCharges != -1 && nCurrentCharges + nSpellLevel > nMaximumCharges)
			SetItemCharges(oItem, nMaximumCharges);
		else	
			SetItemCharges(oItem, nCurrentCharges + nSpellLevel);			
	}

Description

Script to allow any item with charges to be recharged by casting spells upon the item. Default setting is a maximum of 20 charges, and a local variable on the item can be used to set a different maximum or have no maximum.

To use with the OC just copy the NCS file into the \My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\Override folder (or equivalent) and rename the center of the file name to be the item tag you want be rechargeable.

For example, to make Wands of Fire rechargeable, copy the i_rechargeItem_ci.NCS into the Override folder and rename it i_NW_WMGWN002_ci.NCS

Why hasn't Nicethugbert declared this "NEAT!' yet? :)

Will this work with player-crafted wands? Does the game give them a unique tag, or do they simply retain the tag of the blank wand item?
