help on summon

[Il Knight]

Hi, today im triying to make a summon with custom name, so i did some changes on the sources looking some thread here on otland and i get this =

utevo res "orc
King's Orc.
09:11 You see a orc.
Health: 70 / 70.
---------------------
ONLY WITH SPELL!
---------------------
when i use
game.createMonster
doSummonCreature
game.placeCreature
i get =
Orc.
09:11 You see a orc.
Health: 70 / 70.

how i can to SUMMON a creature using scripts "lua" to work like "utevo res" to get = King's Orc.

So you basically want to change the mobs name from orc, to kings orc once you spawn it?

Won't he eventually hit the limit for characters per mob tho? What if someone has a really long name?
My suggestion is to set a special description to the monster perhaps saying "This monster belongs too '.. playername ..'"

what? he said he wants summons to have a custom name, so he either has to change the source where it names the summon and make it name it XXXX's fire elemental, or use a change name function to easily change its name
limit for character per mob? what?

I think he means he wants to change the name for the monster itself. from Orc to etc "Queen Elizabeths Orc" and if this is based on the playername and the player has a really long name im sure that hes gonna eventually hit the limit for amount of characters allowed in a monster name on the reg client

then he can just make it set the summons name to Players XXXXX in sources, it requires like 2? lines to be changed very little
doubt hell hit any cap in displaying names with it unless he names monsters retarded
