Add those to script: Stopping Action & starting new one + Removing Monsters

[Keram]

Hello,

I have a script for zao arena that came up with the data folder I downloaded like 1 year ago...

There is a problem tho, when there are no players in the arena (because they have died by monsters there), and two people waiting will pull the lever, they will appear in the arena BUT THE LAST WAVES WILL STILL BE APPEARING + THE NEW WAVES FOR THEM WILL BE APPEARING AS WELL WHICH MEANS THERE WILL BE 2X MORE MONSTERS.

So say for example player a and b died at wave 2 and player c and d got teleported to the arena straight away player a and b died... All waves started again but also waves that went on for player a and b r also running.

So if anyone could just make so that when the lever gets pulled AGAIN and 2 players get teleported to the arena, monsters from pos1 to pos2 are cleared and the last waves are stopped and new ones are started from the beginning...

i have few scripts but i guess this is the one responsible for everything. i have 2 more but there isn't anything that is somehow connected to summoning bosses etc ;s

here it is:

local t = {
	newPos = {x=33062, y=31029, z=7},
	msg = "You have won! As new champion take the ancient armor as reward before you leave.",
	area = {
		fromX = 33054, toX = 33073,
		fromY = 31026, toY = 32356,
		z = 3
	}
}
local spheres = {
	['energy overlord'] = 8568,
	['fire overlord'] = 8569,
	['ice overlord'] = 8570,
	['earth overlord'] = 8578
}

function getCreaturesInRange(position, radiusx, radiusy, showMonsters, showPlayers, showSummons)
	local creaturesList = {}
	for x = -radiusx, radiusx do
		for y = -radiusy, radiusy do
			if not (x == 0 and y == 0) then
				creature = getTopCreature({x = position.x+x, y = position.y+y, z = position.z, stackpos = 253})
				if (creature.type == 1 and showPlayers == TRUE) or (creature.type == 2 and showMonsters == TRUE and (showSummons == FALSE or (showSummons == TRUE and getCreatureMaster(creature.uid) == (creature.uid)))) then
				table.insert(creaturesList, creature.uid)
				end
			end
		end
	end

	local creature = getTopCreature(position)
	if(creature.type == 1 and showPlayers == TRUE) or (creature.type == 2 and showMonsters == TRUE and (showSummons == FALSE or (showSummons == TRUE and getCreatureMaster(creature.uid) == (creature.uid)))) then
              if not(table.find(creaturesList, creature.uid)) then
			table.insert(creaturesList, creature.uid)
		end
	end
	return creaturesList
end
function onKill(cid, target, damage, flags)
	if isPlayer(target) or not isInArray({1, 3}, flags) or getCreatureMaster(target) then
		return true
	end

	local name = getCreatureName(target):lower()
	if name == 'tirecz' then
		local players = getCreaturesInRange({x=33063, y=31035,z=3}, 10, 9, FALSE, TRUE)
		for i = 1, #players do
			doTeleportThing(players[i], t.newPos)
			doCreatureSay(players[i], t.msg, TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1, false, players[i], getCreaturePosition(players[i]))
		end
		return true
	end

	if spheres[name] then
		setGlobalStorageValue(spheres[name], -1)
		return true
	end

	local now = tasks[name]
	if (now) then
		if isInArray({-1, now.amount}, getPlayerStorageValue(cid, now.storage)) or (not isInArray({14003, 14004, 14005}, now.storage) and getPlayerStorageValue(cid, 14500) ~= now.storage) then
			return true
		end

		local newValue = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, now.storage) + 1
		setPlayerStorageValue(cid, now.storage, newValue)
	end

	local room = getArenaMonsterIdByName(getCreatureName(target))
	if room > 0 then
		setPlayerStorageValue(cid, room, 1)
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,MESSAGE_EVENT_DEFAULT,'You can enter next room!')
	end
	return true
end

I do not have any script similar to the ones that are published on otland... I totally don't know how this system figures out which monsters should be summoned.

But the quest works but it doesn't work perfectly as it should due to some lacks of functions ;p

thanks alot
