Return Value[edit | edit source]

Returns the Magnitude of the Magic Effect.

It will compile but will not execute if the effect has no duration.

;Used self variable. Self was the script attached to this magic effect. 

Float Magnitude = self.GetMagnitude()
Debug.Trace("This magic effect has a strength value of" +Magnitude)

Notes[edit | edit source]

Scripts sometimes unable to call this function, if the effect dispels in the same second it is casted - e.g. effects with no duration, or quickly casting/releasing a concentration type spell, that call this function from the OnEffectStart event. To prevent this, it's better to call GetMagnitude() before OnEffectStart - with OnInit event; in this case this function appear to be fail-safe.
