Lua Function Change Existing Monster Name In-Game

[Moj mistrz]

Does it work for TFS[1.2]?
If not (can't confirm myself, because I never compiled anything) then can someone update it?

Printer said some time ago that it is possible you just need to update the spectators list, however he did not go into much more detail than that.

Erros on tfs 0.3.6.pl1

From what I remember, the client saves the creature name when the creature first appears.

This means, the only way to update the creature's name is to have it teleport off screen, and back on screen (Or maybe just teleport at all). Unless you want to edit the client source parse, and tfs protocol, so it can send updated names each time it updates the character.

For this to work on TFS 1.2

Monster.h

find

const std::string& getName() const final {

replace the 3 codes with this:

const std::string& getName() const final {
            return name;
        }
        const std::string& getNameDescription() const final {
            return nameDescription;
        }
        std::string getDescription(int32_t) const final {
            return nameDescription + '.';
        }

Luascript.h

find

static int luaSetItemOutfit(lua_State* L);

add this under it:

static int luaSetCreatureName(lua_State* L);

luascript.cpp

find:

int LuaScriptInterface::luaSetCreatureOutfit(lua_State* L)
{
    //doSetCreatureOutfit(cid, outfit, time)
    Creature* creature = getCreature(L, 1);
    if (!creature) {
        reportErrorFunc(getErrorDesc(LUA_ERROR_CREATURE_NOT_FOUND));
        pushBoolean(L, false);
        return 1;
    }

    Outfit_t outfit = getOutfit(L, 2);
    int32_t time = getNumber<int32_t>(L, 3);
    pushBoolean(L, Spell::CreateIllusion(creature, outfit, time) == RETURNVALUE_NOERROR);
    return 1;
}

Under that paste this:

int LuaScriptInterface::luaSetCreatureName(lua_State* L)
{
    //setCreatureName(cid, newName, newDescription)
    Creature* creature = getCreature(L, 1);
    if (creature) {
        Monster* monster = (Monster*)creature;
        std::string newName = getString(L, 2);
        std::string newDesc = getString(L, 3);
        monster->name = newName;
        monster->nameDescription = newDesc;
        pushBoolean(L, false);
    }
    else {
        reportErrorFunc(getErrorDesc(LUA_ERROR_CREATURE_NOT_FOUND));
        pushBoolean(L, false);
    }
    return 1;
}

find

//doSetCreatureOutfit(cid, outfit, time)
    lua_register(luaState, "doSetCreatureOutfit", LuaScriptInterface::luaSetCreatureOutfit);

Under add this:

//setCreatureName(cid, name, description)
    lua_register(luaState, "setCreatureName", LuaScriptInterface::luaSetCreatureName);

Enjoy... Works the same.
