Lua Attack damage base increase

[Guiaki]

Hey, is there anyway to make a higher hitting damage with lua?

i have a reset system in my otserv, i wanted that when you reset you attack like +200 hit each attack or something with percent of your health/mana or even percent extra of your actual hitting?

as you can see in vocations.xml there is formula meleeDamage="1.0", is there anyway that i could change this to formula meleeDamage="1.0+reset/100" or something like that? or put in the reset script a code that will set your attack to be higher?

Icy told me i needed to use onStatsChange, but i don't know how to use it, i tought it woud be like this

onStatsChange(cid, attacker, type, combat, value)
        local reset = getReset(cid)
	if type == STATSCHANGE_HEALTHLOSS and attacker == cid then
		COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE = COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE + COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE*(reset/5+1)
	end
end

I wanted that, when a player attack, the damage he will deal will be 20% extra * reset, the formula for this is (reset/5+1), but the thing is, if there is a way to change that to a meeledamage like in the vocation xml would be better, instead of changing every spell.

If someone just could tell me what i needed to do or how to use the onStatsChange, i would be glad

-----------EDIT--------------
For those who want the code its here:

function onStatsChange(cid, attacker, type, combat, value)
	local reset = getReset(cid)
	if type == STATSCHANGE_HEALTHLOSS then
		if combat == COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE then
			if reset > 0 then
				local value = (value + value*((reset/5) + 1))
				doTargetCombatHealth(attacker, cid, combat, -value, -value, CONST_ME_DRAWBLOOD)
				return false
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

The script was made by DarkHaos, thanks to him

add in creaturescripts.xml

 <event type="statschange" name="damageBaseIncrease" event="script" value="YOURSCRIPTNAME.lua"

add in login.lua

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "damageBaseIncrease")

not sure if it will work:

function onStatsChange(cid, attacker, type, combat, value)
    local reset = getReset(cid)
	if type == STATSCHANGE_HEALTHLOSS then
		if combat == COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE then
			if reset > 0  then
				return value = (value + value*((reset/5) + 1)) and true
			else
				return value and true
			end
		end
	end
end

okay, i'll try, just a thing, it is a creaturescript but what sort of type i put? onAttack?

 

[luigilc]

onStatsChange

 

[Darkhaos]

function onStatsChange(cid, attacker, type, combat, value)
	local reset = getReset(cid)
	if type == STATSCHANGE_HEALTHLOSS then
		if combat == COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE then
			if reset > 0 then
				local value = (value + value*((reset/5) + 1))
				doTargetCombatHealth(attacker, cid, combat, -value, -value, CONST_ME_DRAWBLOOD)
				return false
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

Hey, thanks but its not working :S it don't results in error but it doesn't work ;/
-----edit-----
nvm, it works xD thanksss!!!

 

[Darkhaos]

Hey, thanks but its not working :S it don't results in error but it doesn't work ;/

Works only with physical damage, also did you register the event at login.lua?

 

[Guiaki]

i didn't but it still works, do i have to register it?

 

[Darkhaos]

Register it at login.lua with:

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "damageBaseIncrease")

And this at creaturescript.xml

	<event type="statschange" name="damageBaseIncrease" event="script" value="YOURSCRIPTNAME.lua"/>

 

[fiasco456]

it is a creaturescript but what sort of type i put? onAttack?

Read top post to yours~!

 

[Guiaki]

thanks darkhaos, you really helped me

 

[Guiaki]

I need help fast!! please, it worked and everthing but keeps popping up this in console:
[ERORR - CretureEvent::executeStatsChange] Call stack overflow.

 

[Cykotitan]

function onStatsChange(cid, attacker, type, combat, value)
	if type == STATSCHANGE_HEALTHLOSS and combat == COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE and getCreatureStorage(cid, 5) == -1 then
		local reset = getReset(cid)
		if reset > 0 then
			value = value * (1 + reset / 5)
			doCreatureSetStorage(cid, 5, 1)
			doTargetCombatHealth(attacker, cid, COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE, -value, -value, CONST_ME_NONE)
			doCreatureSetStorage(cid, 5)
			return
		end
	end
	return true
end

also corrected the formula

 

[Guiaki]

okay, it works but not in the way I wanted, it corrected the problem of the infinite looping, but if a monster attack me it will hit me a extra damage based on my resets, how can i change that?
