BURST arrow problem

[sonny11]

hi, im using tfs 0.2.10
and basicly the burst arrow doesnt take damage,
it shots the 9x9 fire but no damage is taken
also when i try to add custom weapons like bolt or something i use lua scripts but when i add them the bolt is a combat weapons

i know this sounds very stupid but im new to tfs

To test if burst arrows make dammige try this:

Sorcerer Level 100:
Magic level: 50
Shoot on human

this is an easy way to test burst arrows, if you dont make any hits on the human that means that your burst arrow script is bugged.

human vs human = not working still
it just shots the 9x9 fire
but no dmg is taken
maybe my burst arrow script is bugged well here is what i have in it

local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_BLOCKARMOR, 1)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_BLOCKSHIELD, 1)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_FIREAREA)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_BURSTARROW)
setCombatFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_SKILL, 0, 0, 1.0, 0)

local area = createCombatArea( { {1, 1, 1}, {1, 3, 1}, {1, 1, 1} } )
setCombatArea(combat, area)

function onUseWeapon(cid, var)
	return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

in burst_arrow.lua

and in weapons.xml i have

	<distance id="2546" script="explosive arrow.lua"/>

add this:

local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_FIREAREA)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_BURSTARROW)
setCombatFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, 0, 0, 0, -150)

local area = createCombatArea( { {1, 1, 1}, {1, 3, 1}, {1, 1, 1} } )
setCombatArea(combat, area)

function onUseWeapon(cid, var)
return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

but that will mean it only hits under 150

but i want to make a script for my bolts that does damage depending on level how can i do that?

first: its dosnt meen you hit under 150... you got magic lvl

second what do you have on items file? (bolt)

 

[Starmio]

</item>
<item id="2543" article="a" name="bolt" plural="bolts">
<attribute key="weight" value="80"/>
<attribute key="attack" value="30"/>
<attribute key="weaponType" value="ammunition"/>
<attribute key="ammoType" value="bolt"/>
<attribute key="shootType" value="bolt"/>

this is a custom bolt on my server

local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, 28)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_SUDDENDEATH)
setCombatFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, -1.1, -300, -1.2, -300)

function onUseWeapon(cid, var)
	return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

it is a key what should i add in items.xml and weapons.xml to make it work

 

[Starmio]

<distance id="BOLT ID HERE" range="6" enabled="1" exhaustion="0" hitchance="80" ammo="removecount" script="deathstick.lua"></distance>

:thumbup: THIS HELPED ME A LOT! now they work.

Can someone explain me why sometimes you have to use positive numbers and why sometimes negative numbers?

Thank you!

See you later!
