Lua How to do it on a spell script ?

[Helliot1]

Hello,

I'm trying to modify a script from a spell, which when it throws a spell, would take a while before executing the spell, like this:

"function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
WAIT 2 SECONDS
return combat:execute(creature, variant)
end"

and I'm using OTX Server, I found this formulas below on Lib, and would to put it inside the "WAIT 2 SECONDS", I think this is the most correct way or is there anything better?

Formulas on Lib

function Player.setExhaustion(self, value, time)
    return self:setStorageValue(value, time + os.time())
end

function Player.getExhaustion(self, value)
    local storage = self:getStorageValue(value)
    if storage <= 0 then
        return 0
    end

    return storage - os.time()
end

This is my Script

local combat = Combat()
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_PHYSICALDAMAGE)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, 6)
combat:setArea(createCombatArea(AREA_SOULFIRE))

function onGetFormulaValues(player, skill, attack, factor)
    local min = (player:getLevel() / 5) + (skill * attack * 0.03) + 7
    local max = (player:getLevel() / 5) + (skill * attack * 0.05) + 11
    return -min, -max
end

combat:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_SKILLVALUE, "onGetFormulaValues")

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

Did you try something like:

cooldown="6000" groupcooldown="0"

?

Did you try something like:

cooldown="6000" groupcooldown="0"

?

Yes, but I need a cooldown only in this spell, like a unique cooldown.

 

[2Rec]

cooldown="6000" is exhaust for a single spell, it will affect only your Advanced Soul Fire
set groupcooldown="0" so it wouldnt affect any other attack spells (group="attack")

set groupcooldown="0" so it wouldnt affect any other attack spells (group="attack")

What I'm saying is that when I use advanced soul fire, I'll be able to use other attack spells. If i put "cooldown="6000"" I'll not be able to use other attack spell .

Bump, I need help urgently.

Bump...

Bro, Thanks, you saved me a lot!!! I was breaking my head with this.

@Edit: But i forgot one thing, this function, to have the delay of casting time

function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
    addEvent(Combat.execute, 2 * 1000, combat, creature:getId(), variant)
    end

you can change

cooldown = 15, 
to 
cooldown = 2,

 

[Helliot1]

you can change

cooldown = 15,
to
cooldown = 2,

Yes, but this is the cooldown to use the spell again. This function that I mencioned is to charge the spell.

Example: I'll use the spell, will have the time to charge Example: 2 Seconds. and the cooldown Example: 15 seconds.

This function was charge the spell.

Like this, when I said the spell, have 2 seconds to charge and cast
