[Question]Learn develop spells

[Darky88]

Hi guys

I'd like to know if there is any documentation of how mangos implement spells and everything related to it. Im known with C++ and I'd like to help you abit out. To be honest I'm not quiet sure about where to start.

Spells are implemented by their effects.

If the spell has an effect which is not an aura, it's implemented in SpellEffects.cpp

If the spell has an effect which is an aura, it's implemented in SpellAuras.cpp.

Well I already knew that through the forums, but I mean a proper documentation such as the UDB one where each table gets explained, like most used functions and what are they used for

[Patman128]

All the information you need is there. If you don't know how to use a function, read it's prototype and find examples of usage. If you still don't know, read it's definition.

I would personally recommend the IntelliSense feature of VC++. It will save you hours of looking up functions, finding their usage, etc.

Such a documentation could never exist; it would be long, complicated, and go out of date daily. The only alternative I can think of is doxygen.
