Easy Boss Event

[BugaS]

Hey guys!

Anyone got an event which works like that:

Two times in each day event is comming. How it's works? 10 minutes before is a message "Beware! Weird guest is comming to Boss Cave..."

Then, the system is randomly choosing the boss from the monsters I set and when the boss is appear there is a message: " (Name of Monster) is here! Go to Boss Cave and defeat him!"

I have not tested the script yet. but i will try to help you get it to work.
Right now it will select a random boss, and there is a 25% chance it summon a boss every 4 hour. (change interval to 7200 to make it every 2 hours and so on) Note: interval calculating may be different on your TFS
If nobody kill the boss it will despawn after 4 hours. (mainly to make it impossible to summon more than one boss inside the cave)

inside globalevent.xml
add

<globalevent name="bossCave" interval="14400" event="script" value="bosscave.lua"/> <!-- 14400 = 4 hour, script will be run every 4 hours whit this config. But only 25% chance it will spawn a boss -->

bosscave.lua

local config = {
   events = 600,   -- 600 * 1000 = 10 min
   deSummon = 3600 * 4, -- 3600 * 4 = 4 hours
   bossPos = {x=32000, y=32000, z=7},   -- position where boss should spawn
   eventMsg = "Beware! Weird guest is comming to Boss Cave..."
}

local bosses = {
   -- Name of the bosses
   boss1 =   "Ferumbras",
   boss2 = "Morgaroth",
   boss3 =   "Orshabaal"
}

local function deSummonBoss()
   -- remove the boss if 4 hours have passed
   if (getCreatureByName(summonBoss)) then
       doRemoveCreature(getCreatureByName(summonBoss))
       print(">> Nobody did kill " .. summonBoss .. " System did deSpawn the boss")
   end
end

local function summonBoss()
   summonBoss = bosses[math.random(0, #bosses - 1)]
   local text = "" .. summonBoss .. " is here! Go to Boss Cave and defeat him!"
   doBroadcastMessage(text)
   doCreateMonster(summonBoss, bossPos)
   doSendMagicEffect(bossPos, CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
   addEvent(deSummonBoss, config.deSummon * 1000)
end

function onThink(interval, lastExecution, thinkInterval)
   if(math.random(1, 4) >= 4) then   -- 25% to summon a random boss
       doBroadcastMessage(eventMsg)
       addEvent(summonBoss, config.events * 1000)
   end
   return true
end

Try change

local text = "" .. summonBoss .. " is here! Go to Boss Cave and defeat him!"

to

local text =  summonBoss +  " is here! Go to Boss Cave and defeat him!"
