Help with spells and area editor

Hello,

1) Why all spells i create using the area editor get the blind flag? I havent chosen it but it automatically appears on the spell.

Is there any way to disable this?

2) I made a spell with effect susceptible fire for 6 turns and in game it appears as "susceptible 1 for 6 turns and applies blind".

How can i remove this blind flag?

3) If i create a new effect by using "sset "spell" susceptible 1 6" it gives me susceptible 0 not 1. Only with the are editor i can make that 1.

Do you know how the command must be written?

The Area Editor is quite old. It was written around 2000, the last major update was in 2004, and it was released as FreeWare in 2006 (along with the source code).

It edited the old area files from Smaug, which have since undergone major changes.

If you can get it to work for you, that's great, but I am not planning to do any more support for it.

As for "sset" perhaps that flag is no longer used, which is why you can't set it.
