Looking for help with ActiveMagicEffect script & applying damage (novice)

[wardy164]

Hi guys,

 

I'm a complete novice when it comes to modding, but I enjoy playing around with the kit. Recently, I've tried making a staff enchantment which randomly casts a defined spell. Currently this works, but for the destruction spells i have assigned (i.e., fire storm, blizzard, thunderbolt) the spells correctly activate, but do not damage the target.

 

Does anyone know how to rectify this please?

 

This is my current script:

 

Scriptname StaffScript extends ActiveMagicEffect

spell property firestorm auto

spell property blizzard auto

spell property lightning auto

spell property illus auto

spell property illus2 auto

spell property alter auto

spell property alter2 auto

spell property restore auto

spell property conjure auto

spell property conjure2 auto

spell property conjure3 auto

function OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)

Int random = utility.RandomInt(0, 10)

if random >= 0 && random < 1

firestorm.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >=1 && random < 2

blizzard.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 2 && random < 3

lightning.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 3 && random < 4

illus.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 4 && random < 5

illus2.Cast(akCaster as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 5 && random < 6

alter.Cast(akCaster as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 6 && random < 7

alter2.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 7 && random < 8

restore.Cast(akCaster as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 8 && random < 9

conjure.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 9 && random < 10

conjure2.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

elseIf random >= 10

conjure3.Cast(akTarget as objectreference)

endIf

endFunction

Thank you!
