Check Boss live/dead

[Rycina]

Hi there! I'm looking for something like this for TheForgottenServer 1.4.2, OTCv8 client, engine 10.98.

Does anyone know if such a boss check is available? Or something similar that allows you to display a table with bosses that are currently alive and those that aren't?



Thank you in advance for your help!

you can register em with event "onSpawn" and "onDeath"

if not bossSystem then
   bossSystem = {}
end

function bossSystem:addBoss(boss)
   bossSystem[boss:getName():lower()] = boss:getId()
end

function bossSystem:getBossByName(name)
   local t = bossSystem[name:lower()]
   if not t then
      return false
   end
 
   local boss = Monster(t)
   if boss then
      return boss
   end
 
   return false
end

function bossSystem:onDeath(boss)
    bossSystem[boss:getName():lower()] = nil
end

access to boss metatable

local boss = bossSystem:getBossByName("Orshabaal")
if boss then
  -- boss is alive and we have an access to this metatable
  -- u can do something with boss since it return the object(creature in this case)
  boss:addHealth(50) -- random code line
else
  -- boss died, creature not found
end

I would ask for that too! !
The script is probably good, but I will also need to somehow create this table with images + a button in the game and add this script to the table?

it can be straight in that new module or just simply table

local images = {
                           ["dragon"] = "/images/dragon.gif",
                           ["rat"] = "/images/rat.gif"
                        }

then send it in opCodes, but i think


here been used UICreature widget with setOutfit method, so all what you need to do its just create a module (window like this) with 2 labels
creatureName
creatureStatus

and then simply with opcodes change the Alive not Alive (server check for example by my code.)

I've never made tables, but I'll look for how to do it in Holland I don't have experience in creating them myself
