I've had better luck scripting unit effects, personally, but then
again the only things I specifically tried to do tile effects for was
start and end turn sounds and messages. And now after_death tile
effects just because I want to see if I can, even though I'll end up
leaving that one to you guys in the end anyway.

I usually prefer working with tile effects myself, because they are easier
to script and you can have multiple tile effects simultaneously.

Aha, darn. (Just seems a bit odd to have the terrain be replaced a
turn after the explosion. *shrug*) Definitely good to know, thanks!
Oh, speaking of terrain fizzling. Is there any chance of having
terrain becoming available to scripters anytime soon? I'd like to do a
script for sounds playing when terrain fizzles or changes, but *only*
when that happens and not just when the skill/effect is performed
without the terrain shift. Not sure what anyone else thinks. The idea
just occurred to me after reading these emails.

He beat me to it. You'll notice there's no usual fizzling behavior on
effects with 0 dureation, such as announcements, on_fizzle effects and
so on. Fizzle terrain replacements are in that same category.

It only counts as fizzled if the duration is allowed to decrement to 0.
So
you need to set a minimum duration of 1. Once it hits 0 rounds, it will
fizzle properly.

Hey,
If you have a duration of 0 on an effect, then does it actually
"fizzle"?
Because if so, then I think I've got a bug.
I have this as a splash effect on an explosion skill:
effect
10
|flags
description Replaces certain terrain, when required.
tile
fizzle_replace_terrain=castle_wall|ruins
duration=0
|script_flags
The castle wall isn't being replaced, though. Is that because a duration
of 0 doesn't count as a fizzle, or is there a bug here?
