im trying to get this action script to take mana on use.

[Werewolf]

local config = {
	requiredMana = 100,
}

if(getCreatureMana(cid) < config.requiredMana) then
		doPlayerSendDefaultCancel(cid, RETURNVALUE_NOTENOUGHMANA)
		doSendMagicEffect(pos, CONST_ME_POFF)
		return false
	end
	
function target (stuff) 
local cid = stuff.cid     
local thing = getThingfromPos(stuff.toPosition) 
     

    if (stuff.counter == 2) then 
           if isCreature(thing.uid) then 
                doTeleportThing(thing.uid, getCreaturePosition(stuff.cid)) 
        end 
        return TRUE 
    end     
	    doTeleportThing(thing.uid, getCreaturePosition(stuff.cid)) 
        doSendDistanceShoot(stuff.toPosition, getCreaturePosition(stuff.cid), CONST_ANI_WHIRLWINDAXE) 
        doAreaCombatHealth(0, COMBAT_HOLYDAMAGE, stuff.toPosition, 0, -50, -100, CONST_ME_HOLYDAMAGE) 
        stuff.counter = stuff.counter + 1 
        addEvent(target, 200, stuff) 
end 


function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition) 
    if getTilePzInfo(getCreaturePosition(cid)) == TRUE or getTilePzInfo(toPosition) == TRUE then 
        warnPlayer(cid, "You cannot use this weapon in a protection zone.") 
    else 
        doSendDistanceShoot(getCreaturePosition(cid), toPosition, CONST_ANI_WHIRLWINDAXE) 
		doCreatureAddMana(cid, - config.requiredMana, false)
        local stuff = {cid = cid, toPosition = toPosition, counter = 1}         
        addEvent(target, 300, stuff) 
    end 
    return TRUE 
end

For some reason it does not work, but if i get rid of the

 if(getCreatureMana(cid) < config.requiredMana) then
		doPlayerSendDefaultCancel(cid, RETURNVALUE_NOTENOUGHMANA)
		doSendMagicEffect(pos, CONST_ME_POFF)
		return false
	end

Part it works fine, but i want it to consume mana, but its not working when i try to add it, what did i do wrong?

Try using doPlayerAddMana(cid, - config.requiredMana, false)

D: did not work, when i Put in if(getCreatureMana(cid) < config.requiredMana) then
doPlayerSendDefaultCancel(cid, RETURNVALUE_NOTENOUGHMANA)
doSendMagicEffect(pos, CONST_ME_POFF)
return false
end

In the script itself, it just stops working all together....

Add it under function onUse, also use return true instead of return false, return false gives a "You cannot use this object" message with an action script.
