I was trying to do some remake of Gesior's function but it wasn't work
Here is part of this script which makes error

function getpos()
local target = getCreatureTarget(cid)
local pPos = getCreaturePosition(target)
local playernumber = 0
local playersInRange = {}
local pozycje = {

[cbrm]

iterating with f. getArea and getting the uid of monsters would be better

 

[kermaxpl]

I have never used this function can u help me??

 

[Synthetic_]

Loop through creatures in the area of the caster and just send distance effects between them?

You can use: getSpectators(getCreaturePosition(cid), 5, 5)

 

[kermaxpl]

and take dmg to them, but it should work too

 

[Synthetic_]

and take dmg to them, but i should work too

doTargetCombatHealth

 

[kermaxpl]

Now i have:

function getpos(cid)
local target = getCreatureTarget(cid)
local playernumber = 0
local playersInRange = {}
local multitarget = getSpectators(getCreaturePosition(target), 5, 5, FALSE)
for i = 1, #multitarget do
	local creatureToHit = multitarget[i]
	if getTilePzInfo(getCreaturePosition(creatureToHit.uid)) == FALSE then
		if isCreature(creatureToHit.uid) == TRUE and creatureToHit.uid ~= cid and isPlayer(creatureToHit.uid) ~= TRUE and isNpc(creatureToHit.uid) ~= TRUE then
		table.insert(playersInRange, creatureToHit.uid)
		playernumber = playernumber + 1
		end
	end
end
	return {list = playersInRange, number = playernumber}
end

And error:

Line 27 is:

for i = 1, #multitarget do

 

[Synthetic_]

You need to check if there are any creatures before you try to find the position of them.

You need to add

if (multitarget ) then

before you begin looping through them

 

[kermaxpl]

this is error 'can't get player's target' and u want to check multitarget, pls read error before u post


-- Edit

I added your "if" and changed 'getCreaturePosition(target)' to 'getCreaturePosition(cid)', but I still have

[19:31:52.913] [Error - Spell Interface]
[19:31:52.913] In a timer event called from:

On the other way if it will work, it isn't a good solution becouse i need to check area around monster not around player.

--Edit


SOLVED
It have some bugs, because hits only randomly 2-4 enemies, but should 2-8 and chain end when first target die, and animation sometimes starts from wrong minion, if i will repair this maybe i will publish whole spell.

Ty for help.
