Hi, I was watching the Unit.cpp file, the constructor Unit(), Why dont initialize the m_attackTimer (for every type of attack) to BASE_ATTACK_TIME (defined in Unit.h) instead of 0 (zero), to avoid confusing and maybe hacking or cheating. Because the UNIT_FIELD_*ATTACKTIME fields are initialized to 2000.0f or BASE_ATTACK_TIME inside the Player.cpp and Pet.cpp (also if BASE_ATTACK_TIME = 2000.0f, so replace the numeric value for the defined one). I know there are functions like SetAttackTime, setAttackTimer, resetAttackTimer, etc. But since I dont know exactly how is the core management; I dont know if core uses the var m_attackTimer or the fields UNIT_FIELD_*ATTACKTIME while updating the time (I'd have to read more the code). Well like the title says, it is just a suggestion. thx 4 u'r answer. Regards, ***EDITED*** Some codes (functions) use the "m_*" vars (like m_weaponDamage var) and other ones use the UNIT_FIELD_(MIN|MAX)*DAMAGE... really i get confused, I hope the people who are programming use them in a correct way. If someone can explain me, how use them in whole core (I mean: what situations I must use m_weaponDamage[bASE_ATTACK][MINDAMAGE] = XXXX; or use SetFloatValue(UNIT_FIELD_MINDAMAGE, XXXX) ), it 'd be appreciated.

Oh.. I see now. thx 4 u'r answer. Well, i consider better UNIT_FIELD_OFFHANDATTACKTIME than (UNIT_FIELD_BASEATTACKTIME +1), but i'm sure, mangos dev must have their reason to not name it UNIT_FIELD_OFFHANDATTACKTIME. thx again. Regards,

mangos 6536. I was looking for the UNIT_FIELD_OFFHANDATTACKTIME Field inside the UpdateFields.h but i could not find it. Does This field exist??, coz char data (wikipage) says yes (maybe it is not updated).. so size of UNIT_FIELD_BASEATTACKTIME is 2? thx 4 u'r answer.
