GetIdFromTalent(talent)

Determines the identifier of a talent.

int GetIdFromTalent(
    talent tTalent
);

Parameters

tTalent

The talent to get the ID of.

Description

Returns the identifier of tTalent from SPELL_*, FEAT_* or SKILL_*.

Remarks

When writing generic AI for creatures there are functions, like GetCreatureTalentBest, that return talents that can be used in a situation but a lot of functions require the identifiers to be used. This converts from 'talent' to those identifiers.

You probably want to use this function in conjunction with GetTypeFromTalent, because a lot of the SPELL_*, FEAT_*, and SKILL_* constants correspond to the same value. Thus, this would be TRUE even for FEAT_ALERTNESS and SKILL_ANIMAL_EMPATHY, because they're all just the integer value 0:

if (GetIdFromTalent(tTalent)==SPELL_ACID_FOG)

Version
