"Mini boss" Revscript

[richardestro]

Hey! Looking for some help, i found this revscript that summons a "stronger version" of a killed monster, for TFS 1.3.

local spawnbosses = {
    ["Rotworm"] = {
        chance = 50,
        bossName = "Demon" -- i use Demon only for test
    },
    ["Dragon"] = {
        chance = 50,
        bossName = "Dragon Boss"
    }
}

local cSpawnBossWhenDie = CreatureEvent("SpawnBossWhenDie")
function cSpawnBossWhenDie.onDeath(creature, corpse, killer, mostDamageKiller, unjustified, mostDamageUnjustified)
    local prop = spawnbosses[creature:getName()]
    if prop and math.random(100) <= prop.chance then
        Game.createMonster(prop.bossName, creature:getPosition())
    end
    return true
end
cSpawnBossWhenDie:register()

local ev = EventCallback
function ev.onTargetCombat(creature, target)
    if creature:isPlayer() and target:isMonster() and spawnbosses[target:getName()] then
        target:registerEvent("SpawnBossWhenDie")
    end
    return RETURNVALUE_NOERROR
end

I using TFS 1.3, but find out the revscript uses EventCallbacks, and my server isn't compatible with EventCallbacks, I want to know if this is a way to make this work without the EventCallback?
I found the revscript here in the post of @Sarah Wesker : Lua - [TFS 1.3] Free Scripting Service (https://otland.net/threads/tfs-1-3-free-scripting-service.274636/)

There are definitely more ways you can register events to monsters.

But you can put the EventCallback part here instead:

forgottenserver/data/events/scripts/creature.lua at 1.2 · otland/forgottenserver

A free and open-source MMORPG server emulator written in C++ - otland/forgottenserver

github.com

But change creature:isPlayer() to self:isPlayer() and remember to change enabled to 1 in events.xml for onTargetCombat, also perhaps just make the spawnbosses table global for now.

Did that, but sadly still nothing

bump to see if someone know another way

I expeditiously developed a script that, upon defeating the primary monster, triggers the appearance of another miniboss. The miniboss's health is determined by a percentage agreement, which I have documented in the table.

Regarding the scenario where killing the monster leads to the spawning of another miniboss with varied damage, it is not achievable through LUA alone. Regrettably, it necessitates modifications to the source code. Nonetheless, the script is straightforward and effective.

    ["Rotworm"] = {
        minibossName = "Demon",
        chance = 50,

    },
    ["Dragon"] = {
        minibossName = "Dragon Boss",
        chance = 15,
