Check spellwords for value?

[Cadyan]

I want to check what spell words the player is using, then set a storage value based on the spellStats table.
Mystic Spirit 0.2.15
This is what I have so far:

spellStats =
{
    ["fire"] = {    LVL = 1},
    ["ice"] = {    LVL = 1}
}

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    local spellwords = ????
    local spellName = spellStats[spellwords:lower()]  
    if spellwords == spellName then
        setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 10000, spellName.LVL)
        return true
    else
        return false
    end
end

try

if(param == spellStats[param:lower()]) then

Or skip the table

if(param == fire) then

Doesn't work. Param is a nil value
This is a spell, remember

 

[WibbenZ]

local spellName = {
    ["fire"] = {    LVL = 1},
    ["ice"] = {    LVL = 1}
}
function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    local spellName = spellStats[spellwords:lower()]  
    if(param == spellName) then
        setPlayerStorageValue(cid, 10000, spellName.level )
        return true
    else
        return false
    end
end

My server isent online, but according to lua demo: Your program ran successfully.

Spellwords, and param are nil values.
I know in talkactions that param is a value that works, but not the same with spells.

You can use:

variantToString(var)

should reflect the param of a spell

 

[Cadyan]

Doesn't work. Could you show me an example?

sorry, I've missread what you actually wanted.
I thought you wanted to get the param words of the spell not the spell name itself
either just insert it local in all the spells you need it to be in.
Something like this:

spellStats =
{
   ["fire"] = {storage = {key = 10000, value = 1}, lvl = 1},
   ["ice"] = {storage = {key = 10001, value = 1}, lvl = 1}
}

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local spellWords = "fire"
   if spellStats[spellWords] then
     setPlayerStorageValue(cid, spellStats[spellWords].storage.key, spellStats[spellWords].storage.value)
     return true
   else
     return false
   end
end

or you'll have to mess around in your source code to insert the spellwords as a param in your onCast function.

@up - That is still not properly checking if I am casting the spell. That is just simply checking for a value that isn't triggered.
