ItemPropertyACBonus(int)

Sets an armor class bonus itemproperty.

itemproperty ItemPropertyACBonus(
    int nBonus
);

Parameters

nBonus

Bonus to add; 1 to 20 are valid.

Description

Sets item property AC bonus. You need to specify the bonus, which should be a positive integer between 1 and 20.

The type of AC bonus depends on the type of the item. Thanks to Nailog for providing this information:

Items that gain a Deflection bonus: Creature Skins, staves, rings, melee weapons, helmets, cloaks, belts, gloves, and ranged weapons that use ammunition.

Items that gain an Armor bonus: Armors and bracers.

Items that gain a Natural Armor bonus: Amulets.

Items that gain a Shield bonus: Shields.

Items that gain a Dodge bonus: Boots.

Remarks

The itemproperty commands are special constructors - they construct an itemproperty "object" which can then be applied to an item using the AddItemProperty command, much like effects need to be first constructed, then applied with ApplyEffectToObject.

It will often be a good idea to remove similar itemproperties from the item first. There's a command in the "x2_inc_itemprop" include file called IPSafeAddItemProperty which will do that for you. Check IPSafeAddItemProperty for current bug report.

The bonus can be retrieved off AC bonus item properties using GetItemPropertyCostTableValue.

Example

#include "x2_inc_itemprop"
//The include is for the IPSafeAddItemProperty function

//Gives the PC speaker's armor a +15 AC bonus
void main()
{
object oPC = GetPCSpeaker();
object oItem=GetItemInSlot(INVENTORY_SLOT_CHEST, oPC);

itemproperty ipAdd=ItemPropertyACBonus(15);

if (GetIsObjectValid(oItem))
    IPSafeAddItemProperty(oItem, ipAdd);

// debug message:
SendMessageToPC(GetFirstPC(), "armor AC Bonus = "+IntToString(GetItemACValue(oItem)));
