Lua IN NEED OF: lua check storage time left

[marek12]

Hi there, does anyone know/got script that will show remaining storage time?
I am using experience scroll that rises exp stage by 25% for 1 hour.
It would be really nice to have a command that will tell players how much bonus exp time they got left.

here's the script:

local config = {
    rate = 1.25,
    storage = 1000,
    expstorage = 1100,
    register = 1200,
    time = 3600,
}

function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
    if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage) <= 0 then
        local rates = getPlayerRates(cid)
        setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.expstorage, rates[SKILL__LEVEL])
        setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.register, 1)
        itemEx=itemid == 9004
        doCreatureSay(cid, "Your extra experience rate has been activated! Your experience rate is now: " .. config.rate .. "x higher than normal.", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1, true, cid)
        setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage, os.time()+config.time)
        doPlayerSetExperienceRate(cid, rates[SKILL__LEVEL]*config.rate)
        doRemoveItem(item.uid,1)
        registerCreatureEvent(cid, "ExpStage")
    else
        doCreatureSay(cid, "You must wait until your extra experience rate expire to use another one!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1, true, cid)
    end
return true
end
function onThink(cid, interval)
    if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.register) == 1 then
        if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage) <= os.time() then
            doCreatureSay(cid, "Your extra experience rate has finished! It is now back to normal.", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1, true, cid)
            setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage, 0)
            setPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.register, 0)
            local oldexp = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.expstorage)
            doPlayerSetExperienceRate(cid, oldexp)
            unregisterCreatureEvent(cid, "ExpStage")
        end
    end
return true
end
function onLogin(cid)
    if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.register) == 1 then
        registerCreatureEvent(cid, "ExpStage")
        local rates = getPlayerRates(cid)
        doCreatureSay(cid, "Your extra experience rate is still activated! It is: " .. config.rate .. "x higher than normal.", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1, true, cid)
        if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage) > os.time() then
        local oldexp = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.expstorage)
        doPlayerSetExperienceRate(cid, oldexp+config.rate)
        end
    end
return true
end

Using TFS 0.4

Thanks !

Something like that will work (untested), obviously if you put this in another file make sure to add the same config data.

if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.register) == 1 then
     local remaining = getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage) - os.time()
     doCreatureSay(cid, "You have " .. remaining .. " seconds remaining until your extra experience expires.", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1, true, cid)
end
return true

unfortunately doesnt work :/ no errors in console as well. Tried to modify it but still nothing is helping

 

[Boy67]

Which file are you putting this code? Are you executing by a talkaction or something else?

 

[marek12]

made a lua file in talkaction, put that into talkaction.xml and executing ingame

okay. sorry. my bad. it is working, but it is scripted that only will show msg when exp scroll is used. Just noticed that

Thanks for that. I had to modify that a little but it is working perfectly!

Awesome, glad you got it working! Yeah you can add an else statement to notify the player that they don't have active exp if necessary

if player:getStorageValue(somethingHere) < os.time() then
-- set storage to os.time() + cooldown
-- do something
else
-- still on cooldown (exhausted)
local cooldown = player:getStorageValue(somethingHere) - os.time()
print(cooldown)
end
