[Ironfist ver 1.3.0] Problem with SetPrimarySkill(hero, skill, quantity) and OnBattleStart()

Try this code:

Code:

function OnBattleStart()
  hero = BattleGetHero(0);
  quantity = 10;
  SetPrimarySkill(hero, PRIMARY_SKILL_ATTACK, quantity);
  SetPrimarySkill(hero, PRIMARY_SKILL_DEFENSE, quantity);
end

The hero's attack and defense skills are properly updated, but creatures do not fully benefit from the hero's attack and defense bonuses.

I don't think that is a bug from Ironfist, the game is just not supposed to modify creature stats in battle. In the Heroes III WOG scripting documentation, it is stated that changing the hero's stats in a battle makes no sense, as no creature/spell will benefit from it. I guess Heroes II works the same way.

Yes, it's not a bug, but as I said it's more of a problem. I think having the ability to update different creature-related values directly during combat would really be a plus. For example with "UpdateAllCreaturesAttack", "UpdateAllCreaturesDefense", "UpdateAllCreaturesSpeed", etc. or/and "Get/Set...Stack...Attack/Defense/etc.".
I think that should be possible to add these expressions to Ironfist because it is already possible to modify these values with the spells.

You can already modify creature's stats during combat. However, it looks like we've only made it possible to change their quantity. I'll get on this ASAP.

Very nice, thanks.

I have added 10 new scripting functions to get/set a stack's attack, defense, speed, HP, and shots.

Oh, that's really good.
I will already use some of them when I adapt the current Unknonw Mod script for the next official version of Ironfist.
I already have code in the Unknonw Mod script for the official version 1.3.0 but the results are not perfect.
These additions will help me a lot in the realization of some ideas for the script and it will also be much easier with these additions. Thank you very much for that.
