GetLastSpellHarmful()

Determines whether the last spell cast was harmful.

Description

Use this in a SpellCast script to determine whether the spell was considered harmful.

Returns TRUE if the last spell cast was harmful.

Only can be used accurately in the OnSpellCastAt script of a creature, placeable or door.

Remarks

Speculation: Returns TRUE if HostileSetting is set to 1 for this particular spell in spells.2da.

That speculation is wrong, it merely returns the value passed into the EventSpellCastAt(), using SignalEvent().

If it is FALSE, it doesn't mean it was a good spell, it could be any non-hostile (IE: don't initiate combat) spell.

Returns exact value passed into EventSpellCastAt function, i.e. any value, not just FALSE/TRUE can be put into EventSpellCastAt().
