i have a script, sorta like a capturing a pet system, but im trying to change into where you right click the fish bowl, and it creates a monster that attacks everyone, NOT a summoned creature. currently everything in the script works 100% except that part, heres my script:

Code: 
local storage = 56487

function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
    local desc = getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description') == nil and getItemInfo(item.itemid).description or getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description')

    if not isCreature(itemEx.uid) then
        if getCreatureStorage(cid, storageLol) < os.time() then
            if string.find(desc:lower(), 'catched monster:') ~= nil then
                local x, y = string.find(desc, ': %a+.')
                local a, b = string.find(desc, ': %a+ %a+.')
               
                if a ~= nil then
                    if #getCreatureSummons(cid) == 0 then
                        doSummonMonster(cid, string.sub(desc, a + 2, b - 1))
                        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You summoned a monster.')
                        doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1)
                    else
                        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You\'ve already summoned a monster.')
                    end
                elseif x ~= nil then
                    if #getCreatureSummons(cid) == 0 then
                        doSummonCreature(cid, string.sub(desc, x + 2, y - 1))
                        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You summoned a monster.')
                        doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1)

                    end
                else
                    doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'Unknown monster.')
                end
            else
                doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You didn\'t catch anything into the bottle.')
            end
        else
            doPlayerSendCancel(cid, 'You need to wait before summoning it again.')
        end
    elseif itemEx.uid == cid then
        if #getCreatureSummons(cid) > 0 then

i havent changed anything else, those arent the monsters i have, i have the original fishing monsters in there instead, and i can /m the fishing monsters


EDIT: i just edited the scripts above, they work and are just summoning the fishing monsters. its the line, doSummonMonster(cid, etc.)
when you changed it to doSummonCreature(cid, etc.) it created that NPC error

Swiff i feel that i have been very clear on what the problem is.

the first time i posted about this and you tried to fix it, all you did was change this line:
Code: 
doSummonMonster(cid, string.sub(desc, a + 2, b - 1))

to this line:
Code: 
doSummonCreature(cid, string.sub(desc, a + 2, b - 1))

okay after you did this i tested it and all it did was create the NPC Error when i tried to release the monster:
Code: 
[16:22:51.290] [Error - Action Interface]
[16:22:51.290] data/actions/scripts/AOD/release2.lua:onUse
[16:22:51.291] Description:
[16:22:51.291] (luaDoCreateMonster) Monster with name '268454640' not found
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "data/npc/268454640.xml"
[16:22:51.293] [Warning - Npc::loadFromXml] Cannot load npc file (data/npc/268454640.xml).
[16:22:51.293] Info: failed to load external entity "data/npc/268454640.xml"

you then proceeded to tell me that i changed something else and this error was my fault....when in fact your attempt at fixing it caused the error.



the two scripts above are the catch and release scripts. IM CURRENTLY USING THESE SCRIPTS AND THEY WORK AS THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO. they capture and then release a monster as a summon, all i want is the monster to SIMPLY BE SPAWNED NOT SUMMONED. i want the monster to attack everyone, not whoever the summoner is targetting. it can't be that hard, i just cant figure it out.
HERE ARE THE TWO SCRIPTS FOR THE THIRD TIME.

capture:
Code: 
local t = {
    percent = 40,
    monsters = {
        ['wyrm'] = 75,
        ['sea serpent'] = 75,
        ['quara constrictor'] = 70,
        ['quara hydromancer'] = 60,
        ['quara mantassin'] = 40,
        ['quara pincher'] = 40,
        ['quara predator'] = 20,
        ['massive water elemental'] = 10,
    }
}

function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
    local desc = getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description') == nil and getItemInfo(item.itemid).description or getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description')
  
    if isMonster(itemEx.uid) then
        if t.monsters[getCreatureName(itemEx.uid):lower()] then
            if getCreatureHealth(itemEx.uid) <= getCreatureMaxHealth(itemEx.uid) * t.percent / 100 then
                local desc = getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description') == nil and getItemInfo(item.itemid).description or getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description')
                if string.find(desc:lower(), 'catched monster:') == nil then
                    if math.random(1, 100) < t.monsters[getCreatureName(itemEx.uid):lower()] then
                        doSendMagicEffect(toPosition, CONST_ME_YALAHARIGHOST)
                      
                        local newItem = doPlayerAddItem(cid, 5929, 1)
                        doItemSetAttribute(newItem, 'description', desc .. ' Catched monster: ' .. getCreatureName(itemEx.uid):lower() .. '. ' .. getCreatureName(cid) .. ' has catched this monster.')
                        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You successfuly catched ' .. getCreatureName(itemEx.uid):lower() .. ' into the fish bowl.')
                        doRemoveCreature(itemEx.uid)
                    else
                        doSendMagicEffect(toPosition, CONST_ME_GROUNDSHAKER)
                        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You failed at capturing monster.')
                        doRemoveCreature(itemEx.uid)
                    end
                    doRemoveItem(item.uid)
                else
                    doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You can\'t catch two monsters into same bottle.')
                end
            else
                doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'Creature do not have require low health.')
            end
        else
            doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You can use it only on specific monsters.')
        end
    else
        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You can use it only on monsters.')
    end
    return true
end

Code: 
local storage = 56487

    local desc = getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description') == nil and getItemInfo(item.itemid).description or getItemAttribute(item.uid, 'description')

Sorry I misundersttod you then, I thought you said
"I havent changed anything else, those arent the monsters I have".

Anyhow, I am trying to find where it says it's a player summon, but I can't find it. tracked it so far:
Code: 
f string.find(desc:lower(), 'catched monster:') ~= nil then
local x, y = string.find(desc, ': %a+.')
local a, b = string.find(desc, ': %a+ %a+.')

if a ~= nil then
if #getCreatureSummons(cid) == 0 then
doSummonMonster(cid, string.sub(desc, a + 2, b - 1))
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, 'You summoned a monster.')
doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1)
I would really like to think that it'd be here, but I have never paid attention to string.find or string.sub before. I also don't know that this "#" means before "getCreatureSummons"
I think that those string only collect the name of the monster.. But ye, I've looked through it few times now and I can't find what defines the monster to be a player summon.
I guess # can just mean "number" equals 0 here, but 0 also stands for false so not sure..
I would also liek to think that this line
Code: 
 doSummonMonster(cid, string.sub(desc, a + 2, b - 1))
have the code to make it a players. But I'm lost. Sorry

Edit:
I just googled them, and it doesen't seem that they are defining if the monster is owned or not.

Did you try to use the edit I made from start. In other words, catch and release
And did you try to catch, then edit script and then release?

To summon wild monsters I use
Code: 
doSummonCreature
To summon an owned monster I use
Code: 
doSummonMonster
So. That's really the only thing I can figure out..
I've been at this for an hour now, and I also don't understand the timer storage "Lo1". Local 1? "56487". Ok, so this is seconds or. meh:SYeah I will stop looking at this now, only make me dizzy :/

Sorry if i sounded rude last post, this script is frustrating me too >.< but Yea i have no idea what to do. changing it from summonmonster to summoncreature just makes that NPC error. :/ idk what to do. does anyone else know?

Making scripts shorter, lowering their size is admin's main priority.

Little part:
Code: 
                local text = ""       
                if [...]

                else
                    text = "You can\'t catch two monsters into same bottle."
                end
            else
                text = "Creature do not have require low health."
            end
        else
            text = "You can use it only on specific monsters."
        end
    else
        text = "You can use it only on monsters."
    end
    doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, text)
    return true
end
