So I think there is a little bug with the sk 4.0 and possibly or epics. I know the range has been adjusted to it and I believe it is currently at range of 200. I've tried pulling with these when I know i was definitely in range and I get the message that I'm out of range but this also uses the cast timer on the epic. Before if something was out of range it wouldn't use up the timer.

Might be caused by discrepency between serverside range and clientside range values.

Might want to keep the HT for up close and personal and pull with a spell?

I get this occasionally too when I am right on the edge of being out of range of any spell.

Server side range is 100. I might need to upload new spell file for the clients.

ahh okay, but shouldn't it not eat the cast timer if you're out of range? Since the pally or cleric epic timers dont get eaten up if you try to cast it on a player who's out of range, it just says out of range.

Normally it wouldn't, because the serverside also would make out of range notification. In this case however, the timer for your item is kept serverside, so as far as the server goes you used the item in range (and timer starts ticking), whereas your client goes NEENER NEENER OOR HAHA.

I think an updated spell file will fix this, regardless - Hunter, do you extract the spell file from database or do you manually copy info from database to spell file using the spell editor?

 The import/export tool works pretty good. After making DB changes you can export it.

 I do SoF version so most editors I tried will not export right for me. Going to try what Hunter posted on another thread next time lol.

Hope this helps!

I used to use a spell editor before, but now I just edit directly in the database then do from command line

Code:
perl export_spells.pl

which was a perl file provided on the eqemulator forums.
