0.3.6pl1 onPrepareDeath infinity loop when preventing death

[devianceone]

Im trying to prevent a players death by teleporting them and giving them full health, but it doesn't seem to work. The player never gets healed and either dies after teleporting (returning true) or they go into a infinity loop staying alive with 0 hp and being teleported to the same spot over and over (returning false).

im using 0.3.6pl1, running this as a creature event.

function onPrepareDeath(cid, lastHitKiller, mostDamageKiller)
	print("OnPrepareDeath Start")
	if isPlayer(cid) == TRUE then
		print("OnPrepareDeath Teleport = " .. cid)
		doCreatureAddHealth(cid, getCreatureMaxHealth(cid) - getCreatureHealth(cid))
		doTeleportThing(cid, getTownTemplePosition(getPlayerTown(cid)))
		return false
	end
	print("OnPrepareDeath End")
	return true
end

No errors, but here is my console output from the print function.

[22/02/2010 21:56:48] OnPrepareDeath Teleport = 268436749
[22/02/2010 21:56:48] OnPrepareDeath Start
[22/02/2010 21:56:48] OnPrepareDeath Teleport = 268436749
[22/02/2010 21:56:49] OnPrepareDeath Start
... forever

edit: thanks to Nahruto for a fix, but does anybody know how to make it work with onPrepareDeath still?

yeeeeeeees, i got the same problem, then i posted it in bug section and got...

PrepareDeath prevents from death, Death prevents from corpse dropping.
You need to return false in Prepare~. Anyway, cannot reproduce- was testing it few days ago.

so... i found a alternative way for prevent player from die, if you need it pm me

I pm'd you, but I dont know if it worked because the message doesn't show in my sent message box.

Same here, could you post alternative way to prevent player death ?

 

[Jano]

function onStatsChange(cid, attacker, type, combat, value)
    if (type == STATSCHANGE_HEALTHLOSS) then
        if getCreatureHealth(cid) <= value then
            --if (isPlayer(attacker) == true) then
                --Your script here.
                return false
            --end
        end
    end
    return true
end
