Lua Get Summon Pos

[mackerel]

The code below works for player just fine

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    print(getCreaturePosition(cid))
    return true
end

= Returns table

I want to get position for the summons as well, but the code below does not work

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
   summons = Player(cid):getSummons()
   print(getCreaturePosition(summons))
   return true
end

= Returns false

tfs 1.0

Any help appreciated

AFAIK getSummons() will return a table with the info of the summon(s), in this case you're trying to get the position of a table (which containts the summons info) instead of a creature.

It has been used here:

GlobalEvent - Teleport summon to Master [TFS 1.0]

I've been trying different methods but this time I get nil value:

attempt to call method 'getPosition' (a nil value)

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    local player = Player(cid)
    local summons = player:getSummons()
    local pos = summons:getPosition()
  
    print(pos)
    return true
end

Summoned the monster by using:

utevo res "...
/summon ...

the same thing happens

bogart is correct, player:getSummons() returns a table which you have to iterate to get the monster
even in your link, printer had to iterate the table to get the monster
here's an example

for index, summon in ipairs(player:getSummons()) do
    print(index, summon:getName(), summon:getPosition())
end

    return true
end

It worked because of this part:

local summons = player:getSummons()
            if #summons ~= 0 then
                for i = 1, #summons do
                    local summon = summons[i]

It's iterating by index through a whole table.

I did something like this earlier but that didn't work either

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    local player = Player(cid)
    local summons = player:getSummons()
 
    for i = 1, #summons do
        local pos = summons:getPosition()
        print(pos)
    end
 
    return true
end

Edit//

added

local summon = summons[i]

and it works
