[CREATURESCRIPT] onPrepareDeath 2.0.14

trollebror · Jan 27, 2013

Hello folks!
Is there a way to make the following on the 2.0.14 in any other way then the onPrepareDeath - since the onPrepareDeath does not work properly for this distro?

Code:

local EXIT_POS = {x = 1280, y = 686, z = 9}
function onPrepareDeath(cid, deathList)
    doTeleportThing(cid, EXIT_POS)
    return doCreatureAddHealth(cid, getCreatureMaxHealth(cid), 65535, 256, true)
end

The purpose of the above code is to teleport a player to a position and heal him if he faces an attack that would otherwise kill him. I will be using it for arena/event. (where you do not want to lose EQ nor skills if you "die")

Anyone have any idea how to do this?

XPRIMEX · Jan 30, 2013

tell me if this le works

creaturescripts/scripts/fightingzone.lua

Lua:

local teleportpos = {x=60,y=60,z=7} -- position you want the player to go to
local fromposition = {x=70,y=70,z=7} -- where the zone will start
local toposition = {x=100,y=100,z=7} -- where it'll end

	function onPreprareDeath(cid, deathList)
		local pos = getPlayerPosition(cid)
		local helth = getPlayerMaxHealth(cid)
		local manaa = getPlayerMaxMana(cid)
		if isInRange(pos, fromposition, toposition) then
			doTeleportThing(cid, teleportpos)
			doCreatureAddHealth(cid, helth)
			doCreatureAddMana(cid, manaa)
		end
	end

Sadly, it does not work. You code is clear to me, it should work! But I think that TFS 2.0.14 have problems with onPrepareDeath, not sure though. Could this be done in some other way? Like set the player death loss rate to 0% (items and experience). I know that this function getPlayerLossPercent(cid) exists in 2.0.14 but not the equivalent set-function.

The code above will teleport the player but he will die just after that.

have u tried makin the zone pvp ?

trollebror · Jan 31, 2013

It will still not work. Something that is interesting is that the TFS sometimes crashes if the character dies fast. As stated before, you will get saved if you are lucky and the monster that kills you make low damage. But if you're facing 8 demons that will kill you in an instant the server crashes.

Try this:

Lua:

local fromPos = {x=, y=, z=}
local toPos = {x=, y=, z=}
local tpPos = {x=, y=, z=} 
function onPreprareDeath(cid, deathList)
local pos = getCreaturePosition(cid)
if isInRange(pos, fromPos, toPos) then
doTeleportThing(cid, teleportpos)
doCreatureAddHealth(cid, getCreatureMaxHealth(cid))
doCreatureAddMana(cid, getCreatureMaxMana(cid))
return false
end
return true
end

Hope it works...

he said that the problem is that onPrepareDeath dosent work

Lua:

local orlend = {
	EXIT_POS = {x=1280,y=686,z=9} -- the position the player will get teleported to.
	from_pos = {x=1,y=1,z=1} -- south west corner.
	to_pos = {x=1,y=1,z=1} -- north east corner.
	}
function onKill(cid, target)
	if isInRange(getCreaturePosition(target), orlend.from_pos, orlend.to_pos) then
		doTeleportThing(target, orlend.EXIT_POS)
			doCreatureAddHealth(target, getCreatureMaxHealth(target),1)
end
	return true
end

Lua:

local orlend = {
	EXIT_POS = {x=1280,y=686,z=9} -- the position the player will get teleported to.
	from_pos = {x=1,y=1,z=1} -- south west corner.
	to_pos = {x=1,y=1,z=1} -- north east corner.
	}
function onDeath(cid, corpse, deathList)
	if isInRange(getCreaturePosition(cid), orlend.from_pos, orlend.to_pos) then
		doTeleportThing(cid, orlend.EXIT_POS)
			doCreatureAddHealth(cid, getCreatureMaxHealth(cid),1)
end
	return true
end

Try both

Thanks for all the help, still not working as it should. You get telported, you get full HP, but you still die. The character get the "You are dead"- message and loses lever and EQ. It could have something to do with my death.lua, please take a look at it. If you somehow could prevent the death.lua from running if you're in the specific area.

Code:

dofile("./config.lua")

function onDeath(cid, corpse, killer)
	doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_EVENT_ADVANCE, "You are dead.")
	if deathListEnabled == "yes" then
		local byPlayer = 0
		if killer == 0 then
			killerName = "field item"
		else
			if isPlayer(killer) == TRUE then
				byPlayer = 1
			end
			killerName = getCreatureName(killer)
		end

		db.query("INSERT INTO `player_deaths` (`player_id`, `time`, `level`, `killed_by`, `is_player`) VALUES (" .. getPlayerGUID(cid) .. ", " .. os.time() .. ", " .. getPlayerLevel(cid) .. ", '" .. escapeString(killerName) .. "', " .. byPlayer .. ");")
		local resultId = db.storeQuery("SELECT `player_id` FROM `player_deaths` WHERE `player_id` = " .. getPlayerGUID(cid) .. ";")

		local deathRecords = 0
		while tmpResultId ~= false do
			tmpResultId = result.next(resultId)
			deathRecords = deathRecords + 1
		end

		if resultId ~= false then
			if sqlType == "mysql" then
				while deathRecords > maxDeathRecords do
					db.query("DELETE FROM `player_deaths` WHERE `player_id` = " .. getPlayerGUID(cid) .. " ORDER BY `time` LIMIT 1;")
					deathRecords = deathRecords - 1
				end
			else
				while deathRecords > maxDeathRecords do
					db.query("DELETE FROM `player_deaths` WHERE `rowid` = (SELECT `rowid` FROM `player_deaths` WHERE `player_id` = " .. getPlayerGUID(cid) .. " ORDER BY `time` LIMIT 1);")
					deathRecords = deathRecords - 1
				end
			end
		end

		if byPlayer == 1 then
			local targetGuild = getPlayerGuildId(cid)
			if targetGuild ~= 0 then
				local killerGuild = getPlayerGuildId(killer)
				if killerGuild ~= 0 and targetGuild ~= killerGuild and isInWar(cid, killer) == TRUE then
					local warId = false
					resultId = db.storeQuery("SELECT `id` FROM `guild_wars` WHERE `status` = 1 AND ((`guild1` = " .. killerGuild .. " AND `guild2` = " .. targetGuild .. ") OR (`guild1` = " .. targetGuild .. " AND `guild2` = " .. killerGuild .. "));")
					if resultId ~= false then
						warId = result.getDataInt(resultId, "id")
						result.free(resultId)
					end

					if warId ~= false then
						db.query("INSERT INTO `guildwar_kills` (`killer`, `target`, `killerguild`, `targetguild`, `time`, `warid`) VALUES (" .. db.escapeString(getCreatureName(killer)) .. ", " .. db.escapeString(getCreatureName(cid)) .. ", " .. killerGuild .. ", " .. targetGuild .. ", " .. os.time() .. ", " .. warId .. ");")
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

copy-pasted from my pc. dunno the author

trollebror · Feb 1, 2013

I am pretty sure that TFS 0.2.14 does not support that function onStatsChange. How does your .xml code look like where you register the .lua file?

edit: what distro are you using Cyro?

Cyro · Feb 1, 2013

this is TFS 0.4 rev 3884 maybe not working @ TFS 2.0.14. then I just failed with all ways

I hope someone can get the script working for u

Dantarrix · Feb 2, 2013

Did you tried mine? Cause all make things with onPrepareDeath, but nobody make it return false so players will still die after all....

I will copy paste it here again...

Lua:

local fromPos = {x=, y=, z=}
local toPos = {x=, y=, z=}
local tpPos = {x=, y=, z=} 
function onPreprareDeath(cid, deathList)
local pos = getCreaturePosition(cid)
if isInRange(pos, fromPos, toPos) then
doTeleportThing(cid, teleportpos)
doCreatureAddHealth(cid, getCreatureMaxHealth(cid))
doCreatureAddMana(cid, getCreatureMaxMana(cid))
return false
end
return true
end

@XPRIMEX: Yeah, he said that it doesnt work, but cause players still die... And that is because they dont return false... :/

Sirion_Mido · Feb 2, 2013

Well now i give to you point
now death that's in C++
is no way to make script on death do that action
because anyways he will dead dead dead
and no way to make it with script
SHOULD EDIT C++ !!
