Get skill within a Spell

Raikou · Jan 8, 2022

Hello all,

I got a very basic problem/annoyance.
Within a spell I want to get the players skill lvl.
I tried several variations of something like below but i keep getting nill/nothing.

Lua:

function onCastSpell(creature, var, player) -- seems i cant get player here?
    local skill = player:getSkillLevel(SKILL_DISTANCE)
    print (skill)
 -- ... more stuff not important ...
end

of course this does nothing, i just want to get the skill level of the casting player within onCastSpell, not outside in the sneaky "onGetFormulaValues".

Creature is the player, when the player is the caster.

Huh, i tried that before and got nill.

But you are right:

Lua:

function onCastSpell(creature, var)
    local skill = creature:getSkillLevel(SKILL_DISTANCE)
    print (skill)
end

-- result 31

Weird, but I guess it works out

Mhmm, now i do have another thing.
Does the tfs not work with decimals?
I tried to do some duration based on skill.
So the result could be 2000 base + (skill*10) = 2310 (2.31 seconds)
but than tibia doesn't really deal well with that.

Attribute duration is based off milliseconds, so you should be able to increase it like you showed there.

Yea, I figured it out. Was something else within the spell that made things go weird.
