Poison darts that actually poison?

I've been trying to create a set of 3 poison darts (blue, green & red) that poison the party member that they hit...

I have tried creating a very weak poison bolt (des-ven) on impact, but sometimes that bolt misses the target...

I have a guaranteed method to poison a given party member, but I don't have a way of finding which party member was hit with the dart.

This would be easy if it affected the whole party... But, it doesn't :(

Any help on the subject would be appreciated.

It has been 6 days, and not 1 reply... I guesses that this topic is either not interesting enough, or no-one has an answer.

I know that I may have been doing things lately that no-one else has done(or have had much difficulty in doing), so this topic MAY be beyond the forum's knowledge... Although, I hope not.

Even if it is to say "I don't know", any response is welcome.

Thanx in advance.

Anything I can suggest would be theoritical and based on a few versions back.

I think you are going about it the wrong way, have a zero damage spell that explodes on the part square no matter what then intelligently but randomly apply a damage attack to the part member of your choice that has nothing to do with the flight mechanics (hence the back row either side can be attacked)

Thanx guys :)

I was starting to think that it wasn't possible, but I'll keep at it... At least now I know just how hard it's going to be.

Thanx again.

Don't know if you found a way to do this yet, but would adding a wallitem speech to your method of poisoning a given party, the speech naming the poisoned member of the party, of course you would need a wallitem speech for every character in your game.
