Summary

0005676: Allow 'spells' to be classified by source

Description

There have been many, many problems over the years with where monster spells come from. I've implemented a monster spell class and a source enum so that we can get to work fixing it.

Here are some use cases where we might benefit by converting monster spell information to a class:

* A monster can be able to both cast spells and use divine abilities and have this treated properly
* Monsters having 'fake' spells that match 'real' ones, resulting in lots of special casing
* Monsters getting silence immunity when they shouldn't
* Monsters changing religion yet still using god-specific abilities,

Here is the branch in question on Github:

(note that the last commit is NOT functional! I don't really know C++ well, so I'm stuck.)

Notes
(0027498) wheals (administrator) 2014-10-15 03:31	There's currently a branch in git, mon-spell-slots, that more or less does this. Grunt ended up writing it from scratch rather than using this, but I'm fairly sure the fact that this ticket existed was what part of what motivated him to start it! It hasn't been merged yet, but no sense in keeping this open.
