Instead of saying 'hi', say 'charach' to let the npc focus on you.

Instead of saying 'bye', say 'yyyy' to let the npc unfocus on you.

I don't want to add more greeting keywords to npcsystem.lua (FOCUS_GREETWORDS = {'hi', 'hello'}) or to FOCUS_FAREWELLWORDS
And I didn't find a solution with searching either.

This works for me:

Code: 
local keywordHandler = KeywordHandler:new()
local npcHandler = NpcHandler:new(keywordHandler)
npcHandler:setFocusKeywords("[COLOR="#FF0000"]enter your word here[/COLOR]")
NpcSystem.parseParameters(npcHandler)

function onCreatureAppear(cid)			npcHandler:onCreatureAppear(cid)			end
function onCreatureDisappear(cid)		npcHandler:onCreatureDisappear(cid)			end
function onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)		npcHandler:onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)		end
function onThink()				npcHandler:onThink()					end


--Insert functions here


npcHandler:addModule(FocusModule:new())

Thank you guys for the help so far, I found your post too, and I'm getting a nil value of SetFocusKeywords.

Do I miss a function in the npc system or is my distro outdated?

Oh yeah, here it is:

LUA: 
-- This file contains a default npc script based on Jiddo's npc system
-- NPCs that are made only in XML can use this file as their Lua file

local keywordHandler = KeywordHandler:new()
local npcHandler = NpcHandler:new(keywordHandler)
NpcSystem.parseParameters(npcHandler)

-- OTServ event handling functions start
function onCreatureAppear(cid)              npcHandler:onCreatureAppear(cid) end
function onCreatureDisappear(cid)           npcHandler:onCreatureDisappear(cid) end
function onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)      npcHandler:onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg) end
function onThink()                          npcHandler:onThink() end
-- OTServ event handling functions end


function creatureSayCallback(cid, type, msg)
	if(npcHandler.focus ~= cid) then
		return false
	end
	
if msgcontains(msg, "ikem") or msgcontains(msg, "goshak") then
selfSay('Ikem pashak porak, bata, dora. Ba goshak maruk?')
talk_state = 0

elseif msgcontains(msg, "porak") then
selfSay ('Ikem pashak charcha, burka, burka bata, hakhak. Ba goshak maruk?')
talk_state = 0

end
return true
end

local shopModule = ShopModule:new()
npcHandler:addModule(shopModule)

--Do you want to buy a

--dagger
shopModule:addBuyableItem({'charcha'},		2385, 25,		'charcha')


npcHandler:setCallback(CALLBACK_GREET, greetCallback)
npcHandler:setCallback(CALLBACK_MESSAGE_DEFAULT, creatureSayCallback)
npcHandler:addModule(FocusModule:new())

Alright, here is everything you need, I just tested it, works perfectly:

In npc/lib/modules.lua, replace this:
Code: 
	-- Inits the module and associates handler to it.
	function FocusModule:init(handler)
		self.npcHandler = handler
		for i, word in pairs(FOCUS_GREETWORDS) do
			local obj = {}
			table.insert(obj, word)
			obj.callback = FOCUS_GREETWORDS.callback or FocusModule.messageMatcher
			handler.keywordHandler:addKeyword(obj, FocusModule.onGreet, {module = self})
		end

		for i, word in pairs(FOCUS_FAREWELLWORDS) do
			local obj = {}
			table.insert(obj, word)
			obj.callback = FOCUS_FAREWELLWORDS.callback or FocusModule.messageMatcher
			handler.keywordHandler:addKeyword(obj, FocusModule.onFarewell, {module = self})
		end
	end

with this:
Code: 
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]-- Inits the module and associates handler to it.
	function FocusModule:init(handler)
		self.npcHandler = handler
		local focusGreetwords = self.npcHandler:getFocusGreetKeywords() and self.npcHandler:getFocusGreetKeywords() or FOCUS_GREETWORDS
		local focusFarewellwords = self.npcHandler:getFocusFarewellKeywords() and self.npcHandler:getFocusFarewellKeywords() or FOCUS_FAREWELLWORDS

		for i, word in pairs(focusGreetwords ) do
			local obj = {}
			table.insert(obj, word)
			obj.callback = focusGreetwords.callback or FocusModule.messageMatcher
			handler.keywordHandler:addKeyword(obj, FocusModule.onGreet, {module = self})
		end

		for i, word in pairs(focusFarewellwords) do
			local obj = {}
			table.insert(obj, word)
			obj.callback = focusFarewellwords.callback or FocusModule.messageMatcher
			handler.keywordHandler:addKeyword(obj, FocusModule.onFarewell, {module = self})
		end
	end[/COLOR]


In npchandler.lua , somewhere by the beginning of the file, find this:
Code: 
 focusKeywords = nil,
and replace with:
Code: 
[COLOR="#FF8C00"]focusGreetKeywords = nil,
focusFarewellKeywords = nil, [/COLOR]

also, find this:
Code: 
	function NpcHandler:getFocusKeywords()
			return self.focusGreetKeywords
	end
	function NpcHandler:setFocusKeywords(...)
			self.focusKeywords = arg
	end
and replace with:
Code: 
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]function NpcHandler:getFocusGreetKeywords()
			return self.focusGreetKeywords
	end
	function NpcHandler:setFocusGreetKeywords(...)
		 self.focusGreetKeywords = arg
		 
	end
	function NpcHandler:getFocusFarewellKeywords()
			return self.focusFarewellKeywords
	end
	function NpcHandler:setFocusFarewellKeywords(...)
		 self.focusFarewellKeywords = arg
		 
	end[/COLOR]

Now, the npc's lua file should look this:
Code: 
local keywordHandler = KeywordHandler:new()
local npcHandler = NpcHandler:new(keywordHandler)
npcHandler:setFocusGreetKeywords("[COLOR="#FF0000"]enter greeting word here[/COLOR]") -- you can add multiple if you wish, same for below
npcHandler:setFocusFarewellKeywords("[COLOR="#FF0000"]enter farewell word here[/COLOR]")
NpcSystem.parseParameters(npcHandler)

function onCreatureAppear(cid)			npcHandler:onCreatureAppear(cid)			end
function onCreatureDisappear(cid)		npcHandler:onCreatureDisappear(cid)			end
function onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)		npcHandler:onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)		end
function onThink()				npcHandler:onThink()					end

-- Functions here

npcHandler:addModule(FocusModule:new())

Tell me if there's any errors.

All credits related to this change go to Tarjei.
