[TFS 0.36] [8.6] - Automatic message after completing an action.

oen432 · Oct 20, 2014

Hello,
I'm looking for scricpt that send messages to players when they do something.
Example:
Player FIRST TIME joined the server and got message:
"XXXXX xxxxx xxxx xxx"
Player opened chest with ID 34854 and got message:
"XxXxxx xxxxxx"
Player talked to NPC with ID 54546 and got message:
"XXXXX xxxxxx"
Player killed monster with ID 45453 and got message:
"xxxxx xxxxxx"
Messages can be send as Private Message (like NPC) or as orange messages (like server information). Can anyone do something like this?

2 much info but yes, you can do it.

oen432 · Oct 20, 2014

I wrote something like this. It works but not like i want. I want to change the way we get message.

Code:

function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
   if item.uid == 3587 then
     doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,21,"XXXXX")
   end
  return TRUE
end

And when i add this script i can't get items from chest, only this message.

Code:

doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,20,"XXXXX")

Thanks. But still i can't get items from chest when I use this script. What is wrong? Action ID is 2000 and UniqueID is 3587.

You can add the message in the system.lua, same way with checking for uniqueid and you can add it under function onUse or if you have more chests with extra messages you can do it with a table.

oen432 · Oct 20, 2014

I added this:

Code:

if item.uid == 3578 then
     doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, 25, "XXXXX")
     return true
   end

Above:

Code:

  if(getPlayerStorageValue(cid, storage) > 0) then

But still can't get item.

Without return true.

It works. Thank you.
So now I need same thing with NPC and Monsters.

Limos · Oct 21, 2014

With npcs you can just add the message to the npc Lua file.
Messages for killing monsters can be done with creaturescripts type kill (function onKill).

When exactly should a player receive the message?
Here is an example for a task script that gives messages after killing monsters.

Good idea with NPC

I want to do something like after killing Boss you will get message.

Limos · Oct 21, 2014

You can remove all the storage parts, so you have something like this.

Code:

local config = {
     ["boss name"] = {message = "blabla"},
     ["other boss name"] = {message = "blabla"}
}
function onKill(cid, target)
     local monster = config[getCreatureName(target):lower()]
     if isPlayer(target) or not monster then
         return true
     end

     doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, monster.message)
     return true
end

oen432 · Oct 22, 2014

message.lua

Code:

local config = {
  ["Bear"] = {message = "Test"},
  ["Rat"] = {message = "test"}
}
function onKill(cid, target)
  local monster = config[getCreatureName(target):lower()]
  if isPlayer(target) or not monster then
  return true
  end

  doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, 20, monster.message)
  return true
end

creaturescripts.xml

Code:

   <event type="kill" name="Message" script="message.lua"/>

login.lua

Code:

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "Message")

After killing Rat or Bear I'm not getting any message.

Ohh... I forgot about message when someone first time log in to the game.

Limos · Oct 22, 2014

TFS 0.3 uses event and value.

Code:

<event type="kill" name="Message" event="script" value="message.lua"/>

You can add the first time login message in login.lua.

oen432 · Oct 22, 2014

Still not working.

Limos · Oct 22, 2014

Remove capitals from the monster names.

Code:

local config = {
     ["bear"] = {message = "Test"},
     ["rat"] = {message = "test"}
}

oen432 · Oct 22, 2014

Ok, thanks.
About this login, what should i do exactly?

Limos · Oct 22, 2014

You can add the message under the doPlayerSendOutfitWindow(cid) line.

oen432 · Oct 22, 2014

Done.
Thank you for help!
