Describes different saving throw types. They are used in two ways:
- Defining bonuses or penalties to saving throws;
- Parameters on saving throw functions to specify specific saving throw types:
- WillSave, FortitudeSave, ReflexSave, GetReflexAdjustedDamage
- Note: If called from a spell script with a valid UserType, it applies an invisible "SAVING_THROW_TYPE_SPELLS" for the purposes of this saving throw type (and Spellcraft bonuses vs. spells).
- Note 2: Some of the SAVING_THROW_TYPE_* constants used in these functions mean you get a "Immune" response from them for instance a SAVING_THROW_TYPE_TRAP when you have IMMUNITY_TYPE_TRAP. See list below for details. See issues with MySavingThrow since it throws out the "Immune" return value.
Missing Value
It appears value 20, which would maybe be called SAVING_THROW_TYPE_PARALYSIS, is in the game however no item properties or effects can apply bonuses or penalties for it and there is no check for IMMUNITY_TYPE_PARALYSIS for the return value.
Seems to mainly have been used by Bioware for the Assassin Death Attack roll to give it more thematic elements.
Using values over 20 seem to have no effect in the saving throw functions.
