    I'm just wondering if you can make a wand that never burns out, or is it hardcoded to whatever. I have a mod idea that involves it, but I don't see anything related to it.

    Closest I can think of would be to make a potion that has an effect and also summons another copy of the same potion.

    Was thinking about using potions for something too. Is there a way to avoid having the hero play the potion animation or have him play a different one instead when he uses a potion ?

    I was thinking of using a scroll, but they aren't actually implemented in the game are they?

    I was thinking of creating scrolls ( using potions ). :)

    To my knowledge, blob, there are no options in the XML for custom animations. Too, bad, too, because a 'read scroll' animation would be badass. :)

    I think I read somewhere the animation already exists or something actually ( just that scrolls arent implemented yet ) but yeah just doubting on the possibility of loading a different one than the one coded.

    Sure enough, there's a BUNCH of animations that don't look implemented. hero_read_scroll, hero_read_book, hero_shitty_idle. I wish I had a program that could open these, because I'd love to see what that last one was. :)

    Oh, nice ! Well hopefully for some far, future update.

    If you are talking about the spr files, I think that Game Maker used those. It's probably a different format though, just with the same name.

    Now THAT is funny. I'd love to be able to invoke that as an animation for a skill use or something. :)

    Maybe try a 1 turn polymorph. I've tried something similar with the book animation in Chronology.

    For the wand, have you considered just giving it 999999 charges?
