Lua [TFS 1.1] addEvent help

[Cornwallis]

I've been searching for how to properly use addEvent but i couldn't find any recent results. The while loop may be the problem too. So what it's supposed to do is divide the players soul by 10+ (3*party memebers) so if there's 2 party members then soul = 16, which if i have 100 soul then 100/16 is 6.something, so the while loop will cast the spell 6 times.

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    local pos = getCreaturePosition(cid)
    if getPlayerParty(cid) == TRUE then
        local membersList = getPartyMembers(cid)
        if(membersList == nil or type(membersList) ~= 'table' or #membersList <= 1) then
            doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "No party members in range.")
            doSendMagicEffect(pos, CONST_ME_POFF)
            return false
        end

        local affectedList = {}
        for _, pid in ipairs(membersList) do
            if(getDistanceBetween(getCreaturePosition(pid), pos) <= 36) then
                table.insert(affectedList, pid)
            end
        end

        local tmp = #affectedList
        if(tmp <= 1) then
            doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "No party members in range.")
            doSendMagicEffect(pos, CONST_ME_POFF)
            return false
        end
      
        local soul = 10 + (3*tmp)

        if(doCombat(cid, combat, var) ~= true) then
            doPlayerSendDefaultCancel(cid, RETURNVALUE_NOTPOSSIBLE)
            doSendMagicEffect(pos, CONST_ME_POFF)
            return false
        end
        local soul = getPlayerSoul(cid)/(10 + (3*tmp))
        local event = 0
        local times = event*1000
        doPlayerAddSoul(cid, -soul, FALSE)
        while event <= soul do
            event = event + 1
            addEvent(doCombat(cid, combat, var), times)
            doPlayerAddMana(tmp, min, max)
        end
    else
        local soul = getPlayerSoul(cid)/10
        local event = 0
        local times = event*1000
        local position = getPlayerPosition(cid)
        doPlayerAddSoul(cid, -soul, FALSE)
        while event <= soul do
            event = event + 1
            addEvent(Combat(), times)
            doPlayerAddMana(cid, min, max)
        end
    end
    return true
end

I get this error:

Lua Script Error: [Spell Interface]
data/spells/scripts/healing/salvation.lua:onCastSpell
LuaScriptInterface::luaAddEvent(). callback parameter should be a function.

I think this:

addEvent(doCombat(cid, combat, var), times)

should be:

addEvent(doCombat, cid, combat, var, times)

without the parentheses in the middle

i get this error:

Maybe this:

 addEvent(Combat(), cid, times)
