Hi all, I apologise, I couldn't think of a better tagline for it.
The new script, as you may have worked out: Critical hits! This allows
you to put a chance of skills scoring critical hits and doing different
amounts of damage or restoration. This is something I've wanted for a
while, so I went ahead and did it with javascript.
You can get the new version of the scripts here:

And the new version of the documentation from here:

Its not working quite to the level I want it to be, there are several
known issues with it which I'll highlight so you're aware of them. That
being said, this is a beta, so play around with them, see whether having
critical hit chances is to your liking and feel free to make comments.
Known issues and hoped-for improvements for critical hits (in order of
priority):
1. If you kill off a unit with a critical hit, it doesn't die until the
end of the round. Ian, is this something I can fix or is it up to you?
2. Critical hit damage doesn't factor in buffs/curses on the
defender/attacker that effect damage, nor is there any way of making it
use a specific damage type (such as fire, etc).
3. Critical hit effects won't work. Ian, I think I wrote before about
shared.ApplyEffect causing a crash. Is there anything we can do here?
4. can only currently apply 1 critical hit effect. An easy fix for me to
make when I get round to it.
5. Even though I can replace the amount of damage that is spoken, I
can't replace the sound of the skill with a critical sound or something.
Ian, is there anything I can do here?
In spite of the issues, I hope you guys like having a look at the new
scripts. Feel free to give me feedback on them (even if its critical!).
Enjoy!
Craig
