Solved How can I set new corpse for specific vocation?

[Ramirez]

Hey

I'd like to set different corpses on my vocations and change its description.
For example how can I change the corpse for vocation 2 to image id 328 and make it decay to image 329 with a description "You see a dead saiyan."?

Corpse onDeath

I changed it to:

[cpp]uint16_t Player::getLookCorpse() const

{
uint16_t saiyans, def;

saiyans = 328; // corpse for saiyans
def = 1547; // corpse for non-vocation

if (getVocationId() == 1)
return saiyans;

return def;
}[/cpp]but there is no corpse at all after player's death.

Should I return item id or image id? What should I do in items.xml?

This can be done in Lua as well. The following script will create a corpse based on the players sex:

local t = {
	[0] = 3065,
	[1] = 3058
}
 
function onDeath(cid, corpse, deathList)
	if isPlayer(cid) then
		for i = 1, #deathList do
			local corpse, k = doCreateItem(t[getPlayerSex(cid)], 1, getThingPos(cid)), ""
			for i = 1, math.min(getConfigInfo('deathAssistCount') + 1, #deathList) do
				k = k .. (i == 1 and "" or ", ") .. (isMonster(deathList[i]) and "a " or "") .. getCreatureName(deathList[i])
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

I have modified it a little and it might work, though I haven't tested it:

local t = {
	[{1, 5}] = {3065, 3058},
	[{2, 6}] = {3065, 3058},
}
 
function onDeath(cid, corpse, deathList)
	if isPlayer(cid) then
		for voc, sex in pairs(t) do
			if isInArray(voc, getPlayerVocation(cid)) then
				for i = 1, #deathList do
					local corpse, k = doCreateItem(getPlayerSex(cid) == 0 and sex[1] or sex[2], 1, getThingPos(cid)), ""
					for i = 1, math.min(getConfigInfo('deathAssistCount') + 1, #deathList) do
						k = k .. (i == 1 and "" or ", ") .. (isMonster(deathList[i]) and "a " or "") .. getCreatureName(deathList[i])
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

But where should I use it? I don't understand

 

[J.Dre]

It would go in data/creaturescripts with an "onDeath" event in creaturescripts.xml.

If you plan to make this a major part of your server, I would suggest doing what was provided above - source editions. Using an onDeath event would be sufficient for events.

 

[Ramirez]

Yeah it's pretty major part but if I change it in the source as above it doesn't work. There is no corpse after player's death.
I suppose that I should return items's id instead of image's id. Am I right?

Unfortunately, I haven't spent much time coding in C/C++, I am not the one you want advising you on what to do there. I am still in the "trial and error" phase of learning it, which can be a pain in the a**. Hopefully a support team member can assist you. Good luck!

Ok, I finally did it. Thanks for help
