NPC that converts items after 60 seconds

[Candlejack]

Is this possible? I need an NPC that would convert x number of item id xxxx to x number of item id yyyy. But I need the player to wait based on the number of items that were given

For example.

Player: Hi
Npc: Hello
Player: Convert 10 Branches
<Player gives NPC 10 branches>
NPC: Thank you. Check back in 2 minutes 30 seconds.
...
Player: Hi
NPC: I am still processing your branches. Please check back in 30 seconds...
...
Player: Hi
NPC: I have converted your 10 branches to 10 pieces of wood!
<NPC Gives player 10 wood>

If someone could help me with this I would be extremely grateful!

What TFS version are you using?

In my example script I used Wood (5901) and Honeycombs (5902). Change those values to your desired items. You can also easily adjust the delay time. You can also change lines like this:

npcHandler:say("Would you like to convert {item1} into {item2}?", cid)

To be worded better to your needs.

local keywordHandler = KeywordHandler:new()
local npcHandler = NpcHandler:new(keywordHandler)
NpcSystem.parseParameters(npcHandler)
local Topic = {}

function onCreatureAppear(cid)            npcHandler:onCreatureAppear(cid)            end
function onCreatureDisappear(cid)        npcHandler:onCreatureDisappear(cid)            end
function onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)        npcHandler:onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)        end
function onThink()               npcHandler:onThink()               end

local config = {
    item1 = 5901,
    item2 = 5902,
    timeX = 10,    -- Seconds per item
    delayStorage = 50530, -- empty storage value delay time
    branchCount = 50531, -- empty storage value for branch count
}
local function creatureSayCallback(cid, type, msg)
    if not npcHandler:isFocused(cid) then
        return false
    end
local itemCount = getPlayerItemCount(cid, config.item1)
   
    if msgcontains(msg, "convert") then
        npcHandler:say("Would you like to convert {item1} into {item2}?", cid)
        Topic[cid] = 1
    elseif msgcontains(msg, "pickup") then
        if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.branchCount) > 0 then
            if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.delayStorage) > os.time() then
                npcHandler:say("Please come back later I need more time. Come back in ".. (getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.delayStorage) - os.time()) .." seconds.", cid)
                Topic[cid] = 0
            else
                npcHandler:say("Ah yes here are your ".. getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.branchCount) .." branches.", cid)
                doPlayerAddItem(cid, config.item2,  getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.branchCount))
                setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.branchCount, 0)
            end
        else
            npcHandler:say("I'm sorry you don't have any items to be picked up.", cid)
            Topic[cid] = 0
        end
    elseif msgcontains(msg, "yes") then
        if itemCount < 1 then
            npcHandler:say("I'm sorry you don't have any items to convert.", cid)
            Topic[cid] = 0
        else
            npcHandler:say("It will take ".. (itemCount * 10) .." seconds to convert these items. Please check back later.", cid)
            doPlayerRemoveItem(cid, config.item1, itemCount)
            setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.delayStorage, os.time() + (itemCount * 10))
            setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.branchCount, itemCount)
            Topic[cid] = 0
        end
    elseif msgcontains(msg, "no") then
        if Topic[cid] > 1 then
            npcHandler:say("Then no.", cid)
            Topic[cid] = 0
        end
       
    return true
    end
end

npcHandler:setMessage(MESSAGE_GREET, "Welcome to my adventurer shop, |PLAYERNAME|! Would you like to {convert} or {pickup} any items?")
npcHandler:setMessage(MESSAGE_FAREWELL, "Good bye, |PLAYERNAME|.")
npcHandler:setMessage(MESSAGE_WALKAWAY, "Good bye.")

npcHandler:setCallback(CALLBACK_MESSAGE_DEFAULT, creatureSayCallback)
npcHandler:addModule(FocusModule:new())
