Lua can use spell only when attack a target

[Helliot1]

Hello, im creatinga spells, that only can cast when you are attacking a target

What I'm doing wrong?

local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, 4)
setCombatFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, -1, -20, -1, -30, 5, 5, 1, 1)

local area = createCombatArea(AREA_SQUARE1X1)
setCombatArea(combat, area)

function Creature.isMonster(self)
       return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
        end
    else
        doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You need a target to cast this spell.")
    end
end

idk what tfs you use but you have to add that option inside your spells.xml

casterTargetOrDirection="1"

<instant group="attack" spellid="169" name="Apprentice's Strike" words="exori min flam" lvl="8" mana="6" prem="0" range="3" casterTargetOrDirection="1" blockwalls="1" cooldown="2000" groupcooldown="2000" needlearn="0" script="attack/apprentices_strike.lua">
        <vocation name="Sorcerer" />
        <vocation name="Druid" />
        <vocation name="Master Sorcerer" />
        <vocation name="Elder Druid" />
    </instant>

TFS 1.2, since u didnt state your tfs version

It's already active, but don't work . When I use a spell without a target it cast the spell..
I need a spells that only cast when I have a target selected

Add this to your XML tag;

needtarget="1"

Thanks bro, it works.

But, I had to take out casterTargetOrDirection="1" from XML too
