If you playd on 7.6 you probably know how famous pvp arena from yur evo or sinteria worked.
This place allows you to test your pvp skills without risk of death.

Installation(lever script coming soon so I included stuff from action already)

In my TFS 1.1 server, when the duel timer is up, players are not kicked from the arena and I get this message

Code:
 [!] --> [Warning - Function::getCreaturesInQuestArea] Unknown type (nil value)

Lua Script Error: [Main Interface]
in a timer event called from:
(Unknown scriptfile)

[C]: in function '__lt'
data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua:23: in function <data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua:22>

I copied your scripts exactly and created an arena exactly like your image and only changed the config {x, y, z} coordinates.
 
D1CXnW2.png


I fixed this by adding


Compat.lua
Code:
function isInRange(position, fromPosition, toPosition)
     return (position.x >= fromPosition.x and position.y >= fromPosition.y and position.z >= fromPosition.z and position.x <= toPosition.x and position.y <= toPosition.y and position.z <= toPosition.z)
end


But yes as mentioned above my post you'll get teleported out of temple and die.

Hey there,

Thank you for this great script and tutorial. I have followed it here and it is working fine, but I've had some problems, and that brings some questions:

Anyway, first of all, I've got TFS 1.0 here.

1 - My first question is that after doing everything as OP indicated, I was not able to login with any character, getting the following error:
Arena 02 has logged in.

Lua Script Error: [CreatureScript Interface]
data/creaturescripts/scripts/pvparenaArida.lua: onLogin
data/creaturescripts/scripts/pvparenaArida.lua:25: attempt to index local 'player' (a number value)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function '__index'
data/creaturescripts/scripts/pvparenaArida.lua:25: in function <data/creaturescripts/scripts/pvparenaArida.lua:24>
Arena 02 has logged out.


These were the scripts while I had that problem:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<creaturescripts>
<event type="login" name="PlayerLogin" script="login.lua"/>
<event type="login" name="FirstItems" script="firstitems.lua"/>
<event type="death" name="PlayerDeath" script="playerdeath.lua"/>
<event type="extendedopcode" name="ExtendedOpcode" script="extendedopcode.lua"/>
<event type="preparedeath" name="pvparenaArida" script="pvparenaArida.lua"/>
<event type="login" name="pvparenaArida_r" script="pvparenaArida.lua"/>

</creaturescripts>

local arena = {

frompos = {x = 666, y = 1692, z = 8},

topos = {x = 677, y = 1698, z = 8},

exitpos = {x = 660, y = 1692, z = 7}

}


function onPrepareDeath(player, lastHitKiller, mostDamageKiller)

if player:isPlayer() then

local ppos = player:getPosition()

if isInRange(ppos, arena.frompos, arena.topos) then

local maxhp = player:getMaxHealth()

player:addHealth(maxhp)

addEvent(doCreatureAddHealth, 100, player:getId(), maxhp)

player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING,"[Arena]: You lost the duel.")

end

if isInRange(ppos, arena.frompos, arena.topos) then

player:teleportTo(arena.exitpos)

return true

end

end

return true

end


function onLogin(player)

player:registerEvent("pvparenaArida")

return true

end


  • With that above mentioned error, as a solution, I have decided to simply eliminate
function onLogin(player)
player:registerEvent("pvparenaArida")
return true
end

that now is
-- function onLogin(player)
-- player:registerEvent("pvparenaArida")
-- return true
-- end


and also I have done this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<creaturescripts>
<event type="login" name="PlayerLogin" script="login.lua"/>
<event type="login" name="FirstItems" script="firstitems.lua"/>
<event type="death" name="PlayerDeath" script="playerdeath.lua"/>
<event type="extendedopcode" name="ExtendedOpcode" script="extendedopcode.lua"/>
<!-- <event type="preparedeath" name="pvparenaArida" script="pvparenaArida.lua"/>
<event type="login" name="pvparenaArida_r" script="pvparenaArida.lua"/>
-->
</creaturescripts>


  • So, my first doubt is: Will it be a problem? I have tested the arena, and it seems to work fine, with the exception of the following next question:

2 - My second question is that after doing the above modifications, I decided to test "leaving the player on the arena", to check if it would be expelled from the arena after a long time inside it (as is desired), but the error I get is:
Arena 02 has logged in.
Arena 01 has logged in.
^[[B[!] --> [Warning - Function::getCreaturesInQuestArea] Unknown type (nil value)

Lua Script Error: [Main Interface]
in a timer event called from:
(Unknown scriptfile)
data/actions/scripts/arenapvpArida.lua:23: attempt to compare number with nil
stack traceback:
[C]: in function '__lt'
data/actions/scripts/arenapvpArida.lua:23: in function <data/actions/scripts/arenapvpArida.lua:22>

I have tried to find a solution, but as I am such a newbie, I was not able at all.

So, TLDR, I'd like to know
  1. if the modifications I have done in topic "1" might represent any potential problem for the server/arena functioning;
  2. How can I solve the error shown in topic "2", when limiting the time a character spends inside the arena.

Thank you so much in advance for clearing my doubts.

^^

There were some changes related to metatables and the script probably receives wrong data type at some point.
I need a reference so please paste here lines 23 and 25 of your arenapvpArida.lua
 
Thank you, @zbizu

Here is line 23:
if getCreaturesInQuestArea(TYPE_PLAYER, arena.frompos, arena.topos, GET_COUNT) > 1 then

and here is line 25:
for b = arena.frompos.y, arena.topos.y do

And, in case it is necessary, here is the extract from that function area from anevaPVPArida.lua:
-- CONFIG ENDS HERE --

function lever_back(uid)
doTransformItem(uid,1945)
return true
end

function kick_r()
if getCreaturesInQuestArea(TYPE_PLAYER, arena.frompos, arena.topos, GET_COUNT) > 1 then
for a = arena.frompos.x, arena.topos.x do
for b = arena.frompos.y, arena.topos.y do
pos = {x=a,y=b,z=11,stackpos = 255}
if(isPlayer(getTopCreature(pos).uid)) then
doPlayerSendTextMessage(getTopCreature(pos).uid,MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR,"Time up. Round drawn.")
doTeleportThing(getTopCreature(pos).uid,arena.exitpos)
end
end
end
end
return true
end
local TYPE_PLAYER = 1

If you need I can post the whole script, but it is basically exactly the one in OP. It's quite a big script and it messes up when I copy from the linux terminal into this browser window :)
 
There is no "player" in your line 25 so I can't reproduce this error.

Regarding line 23:
try replacing your function to this:
Code:
function getCreaturesInQuestArea(type, fromPos, toPos, get, countSummon)
   local types =

oh and try moving this to the top:
Code:
local TYPE_PLAYER = 1
local TYPE_MONSTER = 2
local TYPE_NPC = 3
local TYPE_ALL = 4
local GET_COUNT = 1
local GET_UID = 2
 
Thank you again, @zbizu , for taking the time to help me.

I have tested the modifications you have suggested, and my "arenapvp.lua" was updated to:

-- CONFIG BEGINS HERE --

local arena = {
frompos = {x = 666, y = 1692, z = 8},
topos = {x = 677, y = 1698, z = 8},
exitpos = {x = 660, y = 1692, z = 7}
}
local checkpvparena = true -- checks if someone is blocking the arena
local duel_limit = 15 * 60 -- in seconds
local player1pos = {x = 675, y = 1694, z = 7}
local leverpos = {x = 675, y = 1695, z = 7}
local player2pos = {x = 675, y = 1696, z = 7}
local nplayer1pos = {x = 679, y = 1695, z = 8}
local nplayer2pos = {x = 686, y = 1695, z = 8}

-- CONFIG ENDS HERE --

doPlayerSendTextMessage(getTopCreature(pos).uid,MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR,"Time up. Round drawn.")

end

doPlayerSendDefaultCancel(cid, RETURNVALUE_CANNOTUSETHISOBJECT)
else
doTransformItem(getTileItemById(leverpos, 1946).uid,1945)
end
end
return true
end

But, it didn't work, because it gave me the following error on loading the server:

>> Loading script systems
[Warning - Event::checkScript] Can not load script: scripts/arenapvp.lua
data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua:49: function arguments expected near ','
>> Loading monsters

So, I have tried to fix it by substituting

{
[TYPE_PLAYER] = Creature:isPlayer,
[TYPE_MONSTER] = Creature:isMonster,
[TYPE_NPC] = Creature:isNpc,
[TYPE_ALL] = Creature:isCreature
}

to the former version of

{
[TYPE_PLAYER] = isPlayer,
[TYPE_MONSTER] = isMonster,
[TYPE_NPC] = isNpc,
[TYPE_ALL] = isCreature
}

Then, it loaded everything, apparently without error messages, but the arena is actually not working, because when one tries to use it (the moment the player clicks the lever) I get the following error:

Lua Script Error: [Action Interface]
data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua: onUse
data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua:89: attempt to index local 'player' (a number value)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function '__index'
data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua:89: in function <data/actions/scripts/arenapvp.lua:88>

I have checked, and line 89 of "arenapvp.lua" is:

local cid = player:getId()

I have tried simply commenting it out, but then I get other errors :/

Am I doing anything wrong? Or maybe could you please look further into ths issue?

Thank you again, and sorry for the trouble ^^

BTW, I've still kept

-- function onLogin(player)
-- player:registerEvent("pvparena")
-- return true
-- end

and

<!-- <event type="preparedeath" name="pvparena" script="pvparena.lua"/>
<event type="login" name="pvparena_r" script="pvparena.lua"/>
-->

As the issue # 1, as mentioned in first post above, was still present.
