Summary
SUMMARY: Bugfixes "Fix Narrow Line Spell Effects"
Purpose of change
Line attack spells with narrow AOE (0 or 1) were being prevented from
actually working as intended. The exception added to the condition
prevents exiting early if the spell is a line attack.
Fixes #39955
Describe the solution
Add an exception for line spells to
spell_effect_area
which generates the final list of points to have damage applied.Testing
In the referenced issue spells such as
mana beam
andlightning bolt
would at most produce a single sound, and damage a single monster. With the exception applied the same spells were able to damage all zombies covered by the targeting UI.
