Checking is a player has died in a certain area

[watkins577]

Ok, I have made a quest which must be done solo (and this is done by using stones to block it) but if the player dies during the quest, nobody else can do it unless a GM unblocks it, so what I'm asking is if someone can make a script to check if a player has died between 176, 128, 8, and 185, 128, 8.

local fromPos = {}
local toPos = {}

function onDeath(cid)
    if(isInArea(getCreaturePosition(cid), fromPos, toPos) == TRUE) then
        -- do whatever
    end

    return TRUE
end

ok?

 

[Pentagratta]

Can you explain how it works and how coordinates will be in script?
Im a newbie >.<
Thanks!

All credits goes to Alidane

local config = {
    fromPos = {x = 100, y = 100, z = 7},
    toPos = {x = 200, y = 200, z = 7}
}

function onDeath(cid)
    if(isInArea(getCreaturePosition(cid), config.fromPos, config.toPos) == TRUE) then
        -- Reset the quest here
    end

    return TRUE
end

Yeah I just added the actual positions, as that's what Pentagratta wanted to know.

Thanks guys, Im gonna put this in my ot now, and stop using the events I did have (they were really buggy lol)

Edit: I got it working, but I cant work out how to remove the 10 demons that spawn using this.

Edit2: I have found a way to remove creatures, however I get...

[21/05/2009 21:19:17] luaGetCreatureName(). Creature not found

sometimes... Is there any way to fix it (BTW I use isMonster(Mon) == TRUE)
