Is the 'Zero damage causes spell casting failure' bug unfixable in EE?

Title :)

In EE when a fireball is cast on a fire immune spellcaster (eg with protection from fire + protection from elements casuing 0 damage) there is a 'spell casting failure'

Is this unfixable in EE? Is beamdog aware or it / it mentioned anywhere in the logs/references?

The original had Tobex which modded the game to change this i think (non-ee) which is not compatitble with ee.

Sincerely,

Thank you

A fan

    I just tried it with a new install seems its left in

    To recreate:

    1. Create a new game with a party BG2EETOB (version 2.5 16.6)
    2. Create 2x sorcs with fireball, protection from fire, red fire shield and armor (a long casting spell)
    3. Using sorc 1 cast prot. from fire and fire shield red on self, then start armor.
    4. Using sorc 2 Immediately cast fireball near sorc 1.

    Effect -
    Feedback: "sorc 1 is immune to my damage, one of the spells has failed, Spell Failed: Casting Failure
    Expected: immune to damage (100 fire resist), no damage taken, spell cast normally.

    kjeron maybe I missing something?

    Thank you

    BG2EE is behind on the patch cycle (v2.5.16.6 vs. 2.5.17.0).
    It works properly in BGEE and IWDEE.
