"Buff Bot" help

[emho24]

I've got an npc that I'd like to hand out buffs to those players who ask, aka the good ol' "Buff Bot".

The issue I'm having is that I can't get her to cast group spells on the target, they won't land on the hailing player or anyone else. I have to set her up with the single target version of the spells to get anything to work.

Here is a simple example below. I've commented out the line where she casts Conviction, but it does work, she casts Conviction on the hailing player if I uncomment that line. What I want her to do instead is cast Hand of Conviction on the player so it will land on the whole group, but it won't land.

sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/hail/i)
{
$npc->Say("Buffs for you!");
#plugin::CastOnGroup(5257, 0, $client); # Conviction
plugin::CastOnGroup(5278, 0, $client); # Hand of Conviction
}
}

Buff says 'Buffs' for you!
Buffy is filled with a powerful conviction.

The above line is the verbose text in game, it shows that she just casts it on herself. This sounds like a /TGB ON issue if it were a player, but it's an NPC so I'm a bit confused.

Below are the comments in the plugin itself, I don't think I'm using it wrong.

Thoughts?

# Usage: plugin::CastOnGroup(SpellID, MaxDist=0, Client=$client);
# This script will cast the spell on the client's group from an NPC (such as a buff bot).
# SpellID - This is just the spell ID to be cast.
# MaxDist - This is an optional field for setting the Max Distance for the spell to land on group members.
# The Default 0 setting for MaxDist disables the check for distance so it will be cast on all group members in zone.
# Client - This is an optional field to set a specific client to cast buffs on their group (Default is the client interacting with the NPC)
