Some quotes for custom magic tomes.

[Lazwald]

Let's cut it short. I'm making a tome that shoots out thunder...or lightning. I don't now how to code it's ability. The abilities are SetElectric and 8-10 range.

[ptr]

-- code from brimstone book, put them into the onattack function of the weapon

local num_lightnings = 16
local pt = attacker:GetPosition()

for k = 0, num_lightnings do
    local rad = math.random(8, 10)
    local angle = k * 4 * PI / num_lightnings
    local pos = pt + Vector3(rad * math.cos(angle), 0, rad * math.sin(angle))
    TheWorld:PushEvent("ms_sendlightningstrike", pos)
    Sleep(.3 + math.random() * .2)
end

Well, I don't get what SetElectric means
