OnEffectStart - ActiveMagicEffect

Member of: ActiveMagicEffect Script

Event called when the active magic effect has just started on the specified target.

Syntax

Event OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)

Parameters

• akTarget: The Actor this effect was applied to.
• akCaster: The Actor that cast the spell this effect was from.

Examples

Event OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)
  Debug.Trace("Magic effect was started on " + akTarget)
endEvent

Caveat

It is possible, that the ActiveMagicEffect ceases to exist immediately (ex: if the actor it's applied to dies the moment the effect starts), so that GetBaseObject() ends up being called on a none object, even in the OnEffectStart() event. If you need to know the MagicEffect such a ActiveMagicEffect is attached to, you'll need to store it as a property on the ActiveMagicEffect script.
