[c++] Creature Script >>onCreateMonster(cid)<<

[Dominik ms]

I am searching for new code CreatureScript onCreateMonster(cid) {like onLogin, but for monsters}
This must be run when new monster was spawned.
For Ex:

function onCreateMonster(cid)
local name = getCreatureName(cid)
if name == "test" then
print("monster with name ["..name.."] join to game")
end
return true
end

I bet that you need it for just 1 script, if so just execute something when monster appears(it was sth like internaladdmonster)

@up thx!! (work with function onAttack)
i have problem, i must add new creaturescript, but i always go error

[Error - CreatureEvent::configureEvent] No valid type for creature event.createThing
[Warning - BaseEvents::loadFromXml] Cannot configure an event

this is my code
under:

	else if(tmpStr == "attack")
		m_type = CREATURE_EVENT_ATTACK;

This:

	else if(tmpStr == "createThing")
		m_type = CREATURE_EVENT_CREATE;

under:

		case CREATURE_EVENT_ATTACK:
			return "onAttack";

This:

		case CREATURE_EVENT_CREATE:
			return "onCreate";

under:

		case CREATURE_EVENT_ATTACK:

This:

		case CREATURE_EVENT_CREATE:
             return "cid";

before:

uint32_t CreatureEvent::executeAttack(Creature* creature, Creature* target)

This:

uint32_t CreatureEvent::executeCreateThing(Creature* creature)
{
	//onAttack(cid, target)
	if(m_interface->reserveEnv())
	{
		ScriptEnviroment* env = m_interface->getEnv();
		if(m_scripted == EVENT_SCRIPT_BUFFER)
		{
			env->setRealPos(creature->getPosition());
			std::stringstream scriptstream;

			scriptstream << "local cid = " << env->addThing(creature) << std::endl;

			scriptstream << m_scriptData;
			bool result = true;
			if(m_interface->loadBuffer(scriptstream.str()))
			{
				lua_State* L = m_interface->getState();
				result = m_interface->getGlobalBool(L, "_result", true);
			}

			m_interface->releaseEnv();
			return result;
		}
		else
		{
			#ifdef __DEBUG_LUASCRIPTS__
			std::stringstream desc;
			desc << creature->getName();
			env->setEventDesc(desc.str());
			#endif

			env->setScriptId(m_scriptId, m_interface);
			env->setRealPos(creature->getPosition());

			lua_State* L = m_interface->getState();
			m_interface->pushFunction(m_scriptId);

			lua_pushnumber(L, env->addThing(creature));

			bool result = m_interface->callFunction(2);
			m_interface->releaseEnv();
			return result;
		}
	}
	else
	{
		std::cout << "[Error - CreatureEvent::executeCreateThing] Call stack overflow." << std::endl;
		return 0;
	}
}

In creatureeventt.h
under:

		uint32_t executeAttack(Creature* creature, Creature* target);

This:

		uint32_t executeCreateThing(Creature* creature);

and game.cpp
under:

creature->getParent()->postAddNotification(NULL, creature, NULL, creature->getParent()->__getIndexOfThing(creature));
	addCreatureCheck(creature);

This:

	bool deny = false;
	CreatureEventList createThing = creature->getCreatureEvents(CREATURE_EVENT_CREATE);
	for(CreatureEventList::iterator it = createThing.begin(); it != createThing.end(); ++it)
	{
		if(!(*it)->executeCreateThing(creature) && !deny)
			deny = true;
	}

 

[koob]

bool result = m_interface->callFunction(1);

:/

[Error - CreatureEvent::configureEvent] No valid type for creature event.createThing
[Warning - BaseEvents::loadFromXml] Cannot configure an event

 

[koob]

Show ur creaturescripts.xml and that onCreateThing script.

 

[Dominik ms]

	<event type="createThing" name="create" event="script" value="create.lua"/>

and

function onCreate(cid)
say(cid, "I am Creating!")
	return true
end

 

[koob]

Looks ok, try to rebuild sources. Win -> full rebuild, linux -> make clean && make

EDIT:
You forgot about getScriptEventParams() in creaturevent.cpp. Need to define args for event.

 

[Dominik ms]

I have in this code, but now edit to:

		case CREATURE_EVENT_CREATE:
             return "cid";

And creatureScript not found ;(


@edit
I transfer function onLogin from player to creature and it work for monsters too
