I want to add like a text that will come up on the specific x: y: and z:, and i only find tuts on how to add it with globalevents :S

i am sure this will work in creature event . But it will be spammed.\

local places = { ["Temple!"] = {pos = {x = 93, y= 125,z= 7},effect = 23},
                 ["depot!"] = {pos = {x = 93, y= 126,z= 7}, effect = 4}
				}
function onThink(cid,interval)
for k, v in pairs(places) do
 doSendAnimatedText(v.pos, k, math.random(1,255))
 doSendMagicEffect(v.pos,v.effect)
 end
 return true
 end

I cant get it to work i make a lua file in creaturescripts/scripts/animatedtext.lua

local places = { ["Temple!"] = {pos = {x = 93, y= 125,z= 7},effect = 23},
["depot!"] = {pos = {x = 93, y= 126,z= 7}, effect = 4}
}
function onThink(cid,interval)
for k, v in pairs(places) do
doSendAnimatedText(v.pos, k, math.random(1,255))
doSendMagicEffect(v.pos,v.effect)
end
return true
end

and then i add
<event type="anitext" name="Animatedtext" script="animatedtext.lua"/>
in creaturescripts/creaturescripts.xml

 <event type="anitext" name="Animatedtext" script="animatedtext.lua"/>

in creaturescripts/creaturescripts.xml

delete the script :)

wrong things added in creature type must be "think" and you must regestire event name in login.lua

 

[lillen128]

i dont understand, what should stand in " <event type="<-->"", and should i place the script (creaturescripts/scripts/animatedtext.lua) in the login.lua?

Globalevents <event~

next login lua creaturescripts/scripts//login.lua and register!

 

[Doggynub]

you need to go to creature script and make new lua and paste the script i gave you then

go to creature--> creature.xml and paste

<event type="think" name="t" event="script" value="xxxxx.lua"/>

just put the name of script in that "xxxx" part and leave evry thing as it is
then go to creature--> scripts-->login.lua and paste this before the last return true

	registerCreatureEvent(cid, "t")

 

[lillen128]

i cant find creature.xml if you mean creaturescripts.xml then it didnt work, thx so much for helping me! (L)

 

[Doggynub]

then you make somthng wrong. you regestired the event in login.lua?

 

[lillen128]

yes i have, i added registerCreatureEvent(cid, "t") before the last return TRUE
