OpenDereth v0.2.0 Preview 8
Pre-releaseNew selectable mod: Expanded Cast on Strike
Preview 8 adds a one-click Expanded Cast on Strike package to Server Mods, based on the behavior documented by titaniumweiner/ACEUniqueWeenies.
The mod preserves stock ACE handling for direct-object, active-weapon, and monster-projectile procs. It changes the equipped-item pass from Aetheria-only to the documented filter:
i.HasProc && i.CloakWeaveProc != 1 && i.ProcSpellSelfTargeted == selfTargetThis enables cast-on-strike behavior for equipped jewelry, armor, weapons, and other non-Aetheria custom items. It intentionally matches the requested filter exactly; an active proc weapon can therefore be processed again when it is also present in EquippedObjects.
The DLL changes server combat behavior only. It does not bundle or automatically import the ACEUniqueWeenies SQL. Use Custom Weenies for compatible per-weenie SQL files. Turning the mod off leaves imported items intact but stops their non-Aetheria equipped procs after the server restarts.
The package is labeled Preview because its proc frequency and interactions with every custom item have not been thoroughly tested in game.
