SetEncounterDifficulty(int, object)
Sets the difficulty level of an encounter.
Parameters
- nEncounterDifficulty
- ENCOUNTER_DIFFICULTY_* constant or a line from encdifficulty.2da
- oEncounter
- The encounter to change the difficulty. (Default: OBJECT_SELF)
Description
Sets the difficulty level of oEncounter.
This uses an ID line from encdifficulty.2da, the default ones are provided as ENCOUNTER_DIFFICULTY_* constants.
Remarks
The spawn-part of an encounter fires BEFORE the encounter's OnEnter does. Thus, if you call this in the OnEnter event, it will not have any effect on the group being spawned. You can draw a trigger around the encounter and call this function from OnEnter of that trigger instead as a workaround, or use the areas OnEnter.
Note: GetEncounterDifficulty returns the difficulty "value" column from the 2da not the line ID, so storing the ID value using a local may be recommended for more easily matching it up if this is used.
