Re: what has never been wished for
Or, if you are lazy like me, make a mod making Wish a level 0 spell, costing 0 pearl (fatiguecost below 100) and requiring Astral 1. Then pick a nation with Astral mages, and wish away!

Re: what has never been wished for
You could always wish for 'death'. I reckon that's not often used.

Re: what has never been wished for
When I first read the title of this thread I thought you asked 'what has never been wished for' in the context of dom3 wishlists. Which I thought was kind of a cool question, since it could lead to a comprehensive wishlist for everything.

Re: what has never been wished for
Excuse me, I thought I would try this in order to experiment since i have never cast the darn spell, but I cannot get your suggestion to work. What am I doing wrong? This is what I did so far:
#modname "Cheap Wish"
#description "Makes WISH really cheap in order to experiment"
#Version 0.1
#selectspell "wish"
#researchlevel 0
#path 4 1
#pathlevel 4 1
#end
This gets me Wish at level 0 Alt, but it is still a 100-cost lvl-9 req spell, not lvl 1 as I had thought my mod would make it. What am I doing wrong?
On a related note -- I think I reinstalled something at some point, I cannot find all the mod docs -- does anyone know where I can download them? Thank you very much

You can find the mod docs on the Dominions II download page here at Shrapnel Games.

Re: what has never been wished for
The command to set Wish as a first level spell is the following: #pathlevel 0 1 => The 0 is needed to change the primary path, and the 1 sets the level in this primary path. You should not change the actual path for such a mod.
The #fatiguecost 99 (or any number below 100) command is used to set the gem cost of all spells, including rituals, so this command will make Wish a free spell to cast.

Re: what has never been wished for
Hey thanks -- I tried this, but I cant cast the spell -- it doesnt show up in the list of spells my astral-9 baphomet can cast. I thought I had modded it to a astral-1 alteration-0 spell (it is now an alteration-0 spell, costs 1 astral gem to cast, but still requires astral-9, apparantly that cant be modded or I still dont get it), but when my baphomet selects "cast ritual spell", he has no spells to choose from. Even researched up to level alt-1, but no luck. Sorry, I dont get it!

Re: what has never been wished for
Now that I have checked, it does not quite work indeed. I think I had trouble with the research before, so the easiest solution would probably be to give the spell to your nation. You could either do it via a specific map (it works), or by making Wish a nation-specific spell (I never tried that, but it *should* work).
I am not sure what is the problem with the research level though. The spell shows up just fine in the spell list, but cannot be cast, even when all the prerequisites are met.

Re: what has never been wished for
 I knew I should have tested it. (I PMed help that apparently didn't work either.)
Maybe we should ask for more user-intuitive modding tools or even,  , a real program from which we choose what we want to do for what...
