magic = 94  Earth-Shock-Wave          30  0     0     200        2  2          9 1  20    10 8 16   0  0  0        300 75000 1         1

The first # "Type" is what type of sprite will be assigned to that spell, Now if your asking how to add a sprite to the HG server, That I dont know. And I havent seen anyone who does....Yet ...

if you set a Magic spells type # too an already existing one it should work. But if you wanna add new types search game.cpp for magic effects and write your own (which is hard as shit mind you).

Depends really on what your trying to add, in his case hes just trying to use a existing type, I have seen 1 thing that blizzard is very touchy on which magic # it is. Same with ESW

lol if that spell is working like you think it would heal everyone (including enemys) in that area.

One thing you gotta make sure is that its not usuing a already used magic ID like that spell is usuing magic ID 3 and if another spell has the same ID your HG wont start correctly and you will get magic.cfg error so make sure of that.

Really you cant change the effect of any spell unless you code a new type.
In the magic.cfg you can only change how strong the effect is and its area(not sure about its area).

Basically if you want completely new spells (like that party-heal) start learning C++ code and write your own.
