[(BG1\2) BUG] nthNearestMyGroupOfType objects (61-69) not working properly. (0813)

AndreaColombo

Originally posted by devSin in this thread. Since devSin won't beta test BG:EE, I thought I'd report his request here and atomize it for the devs' convenience.

CURRENT BEHAVIOR:

The nthNearestMyGroupOfType objects (61-69) all return the nearest matching object.


EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:

They should correctly return the nth-nearest matching object whose group is the same as the caller.

@Bhryaen and/or @Tanthalas

This also appears to be working correctly now:)

@Cuv
I'll move it to Unconfirmed then so we can get a second confirm.

@Tanthalas Thankies:) Here is the hotkey script if someone wants to try it, vary it, etc. This will key on anyone flagged as Humanoid in the GENERAL.ids... but you can change what group you are looking for. Dont have to use the General.ids.

   
IF
        HotKey(D)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
	        ActionOverride(NearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~Nearest~))
		ActionOverride(SecondNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~SecondNearest~))
		ActionOverride(ThirdNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~ThirdNearest~))
                ActionOverride(FourthNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~FourthNearest~))
                ActionOverride(FifthNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~FifthNearest~))
                ActionOverride(SixthNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~SixthNearest~))
                ActionOverride(SeventhNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~SeventhNearest~))
                ActionOverride(EigthNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~EighthNearest~))
                ActionOverride(NinthNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~NinthNearest~))
                ActionOverride(TenthNearestMyGroupOfType([0.HUMANOID]),DisplayStringHead(Myself,~So far away from you - Mark Knopfler~))
END

@Cuv - props for the Mark Knopfler pun

This working correctly may be a result of this fix

Yeah, MyGroup and Enemy are the two sides of the same coin.
