Lantern relayer question

Post by Alibaster »

I have a Lantern of Independence from the 4th of July 202. If I relayer that item, will it retain it's color or will it revert to a standard lantern? I like the color scheme when it's lit

It will change to the color of the base you're using, you can also find the hue id of that lantern in the hue room, I forgot what that is, sorry.
If you don't like the road you're walking, start paving another one.

Event items with special text usually can't be used as relayer samples.

Thanks for the responses. Anyone know the Hue ID for the special lantern? That might be the way to go instead.

You can use Razor -> Display/Counters -> Add -> Target to find the primary hue of an item.

BUT

Items also have secondary hues which cannot set with a unidye tub. You should probably check with a normal lantern to see if it comes out as you intend before going through the much more expensive relayer process.

Thanks Wil. I don’t have Razor but Damascus was nice enough to get me the code. I think it is 2432

One thing to note is that if you have a lantern and re-layer it, you'll end up with an unlit lantern graphic.

From: https://uoex.net/wiki/Relayer
> NOTE: If you are changing to the appearance of a lantern, candle, or torch - this item will be permanently in the 'off' position. If you wish your item to be lit, place the item, sample item, and relayer deed into your backpack and page the staff to do the change for you. You cannot have the item switched to 'on' at a later date without being charged 100ED for an appearance change service.

I came across another thread in the forums (viewtopic.php?f=1&t=14634&p=85589&hilit=lantern#p85589) that says there is now a prompt when you relayer it to set it to on or off permanently. It's possible the Wiki is out of date. If anyone knows for sure, please let me know. I'm waiting for the Christmas donation bonus to buy my relayer deed.

OK new wrinkle. I made my lantern relayer. I relayered a Bone Crusher into a lantern. Now when I equip the lantern in my left hand, my primary weapon does not use the whirlwind ability. When I relayered the lantern, I had a choice of leaving the name as Bone Crusher or change to lantern. I chose Bone Crusher. Could that be the cause? Any ideas on what's going on?

Update #2: It's script related. For some reason my script is pulling the weapon ability from my lantern and not my primary weapon. Here is the code. Any idea why its doing that?

function Auto_Attack() {
while (!Player.Dead()) {
var monster = Orion.FindType('any', 'any', ground, 'near|mobile|ignoreself|ignorefriends|inlos', '10', 'gray|red|criminal|enemy|orange');
if (!monster.length) {
Orion.Print('54', ' No mobs around');
Orion.Wait(500);
continue;
}
Orion.CharPrint(monster, 54, '*');
Orion.RemoveObject("target");
Orion.AddObject("target", monster[0]);
var target = Orion.FindObject("target");
Orion.Attack("target");
Orion.ClearHighlightCharacters();
Orion.AddHighlightCharacter('target', '0x0026');
if (Orion.FindObject('target') != null) {
Orion.UseAbility('secondary', true);
Orion.Wait(1000);

This script seems to work just fine. any ideas why the other one doesn't like left handed relayers? Both are Orion scripts by the way.

function BowTargetAttack()
{
Orion.IgnoreReset();
Orion.Ignore(self);
while (true)
{
var enemy = Orion.FindType('-1 | 0x0191 | 0x0190 ', -1, 'ground', 'mobile | near | ignorefriends', '15', 'gray | criminal | enemy | red');
Orion.Wait(50);
if (enemy.length > 0)
{
Orion.UseAbility('secondary');
Orion.TargetObject(enemy[0]);
Orion.Wait(50);
Orion.Attack(enemy[0]);
Orion.Wait(1000)
}
}
}
