Broadcast when killed on Latest TFS alpha 4 - Spells animation color

[mamon_2]

Like topic name says, if anyone knows how to do a broadcast when killed and make spells to be told like a animation when monsters talks, in orange, so they doesnt disturb at default channel.

Anyone?

Goto data/creaturescripts/scripts/playerdeath.lua, under doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_EVENT_ADVANCE, "You are dead.") put doBroadcastMessage(message, type) (of course change the message and type to what you want).

I think the second thing would have to be done in the source, not sure though.

Spells animation color will be in beta, 4 days to go.


Broadcast when killed :

data\creaturescripts\scripts\kill.lua :

function onKill(cid, target)
if isPlayer(cid) == 1 and isPlayer(target) == 1 then
doBroadcastMessage(getCreatureName(target).." was killed by "..getCreatureName(cid).." at level " ..getPlayerLevel(target).., MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)
end

data\creaturescripts\scripts\login.lua, add line

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "PlayerDeath")

after

function onLogin(cid)

, it must be like:

function onLogin(cid)
registerCreatureEvent(cid, "kill")
registerCreatureEvent(cid, "PlayerDeath")
registerCreatureEvent(cid, "FirstItems")
return TRUE
end

and in \data\creaturescripts\creaturescripts.xml, add line:

<event type="kill" name="kill" script="kill.lua" />

Damn, I dont know why, but it still doesnt working... And deathlist isnt working too :S
It requires a phpmyadmin version or something like that?

What I told you works for me, are you using xampp? If so, make sure you have the newest version of PHPMyAdmin. As I'm not a big fan of xampp, I use the newest version of just MySQL (which I believe is 5.0) and SQLyog to control the database. If you do have the newest version of PHPMyAdmin, post here again and hopefully someone can help you.

In the broadcast message at:

getPlayerLevel(target)[B]..[/B]

Remove those two periods.

o.0, my mistake, wasdrunked..or wtf :<
here it is, kill.lua:

function onKill(cid, target)
if isPlayer(cid) == 1 and isPlayer(target) == 1 then
doBroadcastMessage(""..getCreatureName(target).." was killed by "..getCreatureName(cid).." at level " ..getPlayerLevel(target).."", MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)
end
end

here it is, kill.lua:

Why make a whole new file when you can just add

doBroadcastMessage(getCreatureName(cid).." was killed by "..getCreatureName(killer).." at level "..getPlayerLevel(cid), MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)

before doPlayerSendTextMessage in the onDeath function in playerdeath.lua?

true ;>

doBroadcastMessage(""..getCreatureName(target).." was killed by "..getCreatureName(cid).." at level " ..getPlayerLevel(target).."", MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)

in playerdeath.lua, will be more better ;D

 

[jo3bingham]

true ;>
in playerdeath.lua, will be more better ;D

You put those periods at the end again, .

Jo3

 

[Fare]

you is about ..? I think they must be there :>

 

[EvulMastah]

true ;>
in playerdeath.lua, will be more better ;D

Yours will not work, since 'target' is nil at playerdeath.lua.
(onDeath(cid, corpse, killer))

 

[Fare]

ahh, yea :> anyway, it works with onKill ;]
with onDeath must be:

doBroadcastMessage(""..getCreatureName(cid).." was killed by "..getCreatureName(killer).." at level " ..getPlayerLevel(cid).."", MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)

 

[mamon_2]

WTF =(
It isnt working =(
TFS alpha 4 :S

 

[mamon_2]

Works thx i love yo!

 

[jo3bingham]

you is about ..? I think they must be there :>

I didn't notice you had the double quotes after them. If you remove one of those quotes then you won't need those periods.
