Lua Damage Attribute

[empasor123]

I have implemented % damage increase when consuming certain items, and it works on regular TFS 1.4.2. We then moved everything to TFS Optimized and there I saw that there is no onSpawn function for monsters.

Is there any other workarounds? Or other ideas?

Possible work-around..

You could make a pseudo onSpawn event, by using an onThink event.

Basically you'd have to go through every monster manually, adding the onThink event, so it's registered.. and then anytime you want to register stuff to every monster, like you normally would with onSpawn, you'd throw it into the onThink event.

xml monster

<script>
    <event name="registerOnSpawnEvents_onThink"/>
</script>

lua monster

monster.events = {
    "registerOnSpawnEvents_onThink"
}

onThink event

local creatureevent = CreatureEvent("registerOnSpawnEvents_onThink")

function creatureevent.onThink(creature, interval)
    -- register all your other stuff here.

    if creature:getName():lower() ~= "rat" then
        -- register to every monster, except rat
    end

    creature:registerEvent("onHealthChange_damageIncrease") -- example

    creature:unregisterEvent("registerOnSpawnEvents_onThink") -- so that it only runs once
    return true
end

creatureevent:register()

I will give this a shot. Thx brother
