C++ How to create distance effect for spells in tfs 1.5

[3alola1]

I want my spell to have this sudden death distance effect

local combat = Combat()
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_DEATHDAMAGE)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_MORTAREA)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_SUDDENDEATH)
combat:setArea(createCombatArea(AREA_CIRCLE5X5))

-- Formula to calculate the damage
function onGetFormulaValues(player, level, magicLevel)
    local min = (level / 5) + (magicLevel * 15) + 50
    local max = (level / 5) + (magicLevel * 18) + 75
    return -min, -max
end

combat:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_LEVELMAGICVALUE, "onGetFormulaValues")

-- Spell cast function
function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
    return combat:execute(creature, variant)
end

the spell script

IDK, if area spells show "distance effect" at all. If they do, they probably show it only for 'hit targets', not for every tile in area.
There is probably no function to show that effect using combat area.
Only way would be to set spell callback to CALLBACK_PARAM_TARGETTILE, it should execute this function for every tile inside attacked area:

function onTargetTile(creature, position)
    creature:getPosition():sendDistanceEffect(position, CONST_ANI_SUDDENDEATH)
end

combat:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_TARGETTILE, "onTargetTile")

but it would cancel combat:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_LEVELMAGICVALUE, "onGetFormulaValues") (there is only 1 spell callback in C++?)
So probably final solution is to call 2 combats one after another:

-- damage combat
local combat = Combat()
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_DEATHDAMAGE)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_MORTAREA)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_SUDDENDEATH)
combat:setArea(createCombatArea(AREA_CIRCLE5X5))

-- Formula to calculate the damage
function onGetFormulaValues(player, level, magicLevel)
    local min = (level / 5) + (magicLevel * 15) + 50
    local max = (level / 5) + (magicLevel * 18) + 75
    return -min, -max
end

combat:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_LEVELMAGICVALUE, "onGetFormulaValues")

-- animation combat
local combat2 = Combat()
combat2:setArea(createCombatArea(AREA_CIRCLE5X5))
function onTargetTile(creature, position)
    creature:getPosition():sendDistanceEffect(position, CONST_ANI_SUDDENDEATH)
end

combat2:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_TARGETTILE, "onTargetTile")

-- Spell cast function
function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
-- if damage combat works, then execute animation combat
    return combat:execute(creature, variant) and combat2:execute(creature, variant)
end

Probably yeah there was a function on tfs 0.4 were you can add the distance spelleffect with it I'm just new to the new tfs and getting confused but still learning but Thanks it worked perfectly <3

Thanks it worked perfectly

If my code worked, then mark my answer as Support request answer/mark as Solved.
