For smaugfuss 1.9.3

I face a bug.
I create a spell with everything properly set up but the smaug is not recognizing it as spell.
Anyone has a clue?

What do you mean "not recognized"? I see it right there in your second box:

You will need to explain what you are expecting to happen, and what is actually happening.

if you can see on the spells list fot example the (shield) and the (shock damage) appear under the spells tab while the rest of the spells outside it.

They are all spells but smaug separates them.

It’s properly set up, but not working, eh? So it isn’t properly set up, is basically it.

The spell list seems to be shown in the file act_info.c. I suggest you look at what conditions need to be met, in that file, for the spell to show up as a spell.

Rather than just asserting that it is properly set up, how about showing how you set it up?

I’m assuming the spells are in the file skills.dat, so perhaps show an excerpt from that file for a spell that works (eg. Shock damage) and then the entry that you used for one that doesn’t work (eg. Drain agility).

We can’t read minds, you know. We don’t know what coding changes you have made, nor what configuration changes you have made to files. Just a bare description of the problem, without any debugging, or showing what you have changed, is unlikely to get you any helpful results.
