Learn spell by clicking on a book [Quest]

[rilleman]

I wonder if its possible to make a book/chest and when you click on it you will learn a spell?

-- ver. 0.1
local c = {
	[1ItemId1] = "Spell name1",
	[2ItemId2] = "Spell name2"
}
function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)

	local spell = c[item.id]
	if spell then
		if getPlayerLearnedInstantSpell(cid, spell) then
			doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR, "You already know this spell.")
			doSendMagicEffect(fromPosition, CONST_ME_POFF)
		else
			doPlayerLearnInstantSpell(cid, spell)
		end
	else
		return false
	end

	return true
end

Replace 1ItemId1 with the item ID you're going to use?

 

[Laron25]

Heh,

 

[rilleman]

Im sorry, late night hehe.

Could you make it so when you click on the book/container you'll see an text "You have learn a new spell" or something?

anyway thanks alot! ive repped u!

 

[norrow]

[1ItemID1] - you need to enter in the parentheses item's id

 

[Amiroslo]

<action actionid="1234" event="script" value="spell.lua"/>

spell.lua

local spellName = "SPELLNAMEHERE" -- replace spellnamehere with ur spell
function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
	if item.actionid == 1234 then -- 1234 should be as same aid in actions.xml
		if not getPlayerLearnedInstantSpell(cid, spellName) then
			doPlayerLearnInstantSpell(cid, spellName)
                        doPlayerPopupFYI(cid, You just learnt a new spell)
		else
			doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You cannot learn this spell twice.")
		end	
	end
	return true
end

<action actionid="1234" event="script" value="spell.lua"/>

spell.lua

local spellName = "SPELLNAMEHERE" -- replace spellnamehere with ur spell

	if item.actionid == 1234 then -- 1234 should be as same aid in actions.xml

			doPlayerLearnInstantSpell(cid, spellName)
                        doPlayerPopupFYI(cid, You just learnt a new spell)
		else
			doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You cannot learn this spell twice.")
		end	
	end
	return true
end

can I make custom action ids, so I can make the player learn different spells for the same item id but with different action ids?

 

[Ninja]

Yes, you can do that.

Haven't tested this, but please give it a try.

local t = {
    [5000] = {"Light Healing"},
    [5001] = {"Haste"},
}

function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
    local v = t[item.actionid]
    if v then
        if getPlayerLearnedInstantSpell(cid, v[1]) then
            return doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You already know this spell."), doSendMagicEffect(getThingPos(cid), CONST_ME_POFF), false
        end
        
        doPlayerLearnInstantSpell(cid, v[1])
        doSendMagicEffect(getThingPos(cid), CONST_ME_WRAPS)
        doCreatureSay(cid, "You just learnt a new spell!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
    end
    return true
end

        doCreatureSay(cid, "You just learnt a new spell!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
    end
    return true
end

but how do I make custom action ids for the item? I want to use the poem scroll as the item

 

[Limos]

local item = doPlayerAddItem(cid,5952,1)
doSetItemActionId(item, 5000)

 

[Dagor]

local item = doPlayerAddItem(cid,5952,1)
doSetItemActionId(item, 5000)

awesome. im gonna put the script here and test.

I tested and seems to work. thanks A LOT. but how do I make the message tell me what was the spell I learned?

doCreatureSay(cid, "You just learnt a new spell!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)

 

[Ninja]

doCreatureSay(cid, "You have just learnt the spell " .. v[1] .."!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)

 

[Dagor]

another thing, besides adding custom action id, can I add a custom description for the same item? I know I have to use the command doItemSetAttribute(item, "description", ....) but how do I add the description for the same item I added the action id? I just put the doitemsetattribute after the dosetitemaction id? wont it create two items?

 

[Limos]

Still using Mystic Spirit?

local item = doPlayerAddItem(cid,5952,1)
doSetItemActionId(item, 5000)
doSetItemSpecialDescription(item, "Your text here.")

It won't create 2 items because you have doPlayerAddItem(cid,5952,1) only 1x.

yes im using mystic spirit 2.1.4

i got a problem, the server isnt recognizing neither doSeItemSpecialDescription nor doItemSetAttribute

 

[Limos]

I just tested it on TFS 0.2.14 (Mystic Spirit) and it worked fine for me.
16:19 You see a poem scroll.
It weighs 1.20 oz.
Your text here.
ItemID: [5952], ActionID: [5000].

Do you get errors?
