[lua] Event onUse not found.

[ibkfly]

function onStepIn(cid, item, position, lastPosition)

local portal = {x = 1375, y = 500, z = 9}
local finishedqueststorage = 14001
local player = Player(cid)

if (player:getStorageValue(finishedqueststorage) == 14001) then
doTeleportThing(player, portal)
doSendMagicEffect(portal, CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR, "The magic field has thrown you into the daedric abyss!")
else
player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_BLUE, "You are not prepared for facing the dangers of the dungeon.")
end

return true
end

error in console as thread title says. Any suggestions?

Did the console only say:

Event onUse not found.

or other like: "Name".lua:12 or something.

And post version of the server.

You get that error "Event onUse not found" because you are trying to use a movement script onStepIn as an action (onUse).

Action

function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, target, toPosition, isHotkey)

Movement

function onStepIn(cid, item, position, fromPosition)

Also cleaned up your code abit:

function onStepIn(cid, item, position, fromPosition)
    local portal = Position(1375, 500, 9)
    local finishedqueststorage = 14001
    local player = Player(cid)
    if not player then -- Prohibit crash in case no player trig the event.
        return true
    end

    if player:getStorageValue(finishedqueststorage) == 14001 then
        player:teleportTo(portal)
        player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
        player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR, "The magic field has thrown you into the daedric abyss!")
    else
        player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_BLUE, "You are not prepared for facing the dangers of the dungeon.")
    end
    return true
end

ahh, thanks man. just figured it out myself. was looking at a 1.1 VIP system script here on the forum. instead of using vip time i was making the teleport only usable after finishing a quest, getting storage 14001. That was already configured by an NPC and creature event. so i was a bit quick and put the teleport script where the vip item script (actions map instead of movements) from the thread was.
