Monster script - When you trap a deer it attacks you (It is possible?)

[SpO0KIe]

As the title said!

I would like a script for the monster "Deer" that makes it attack a player when it is trapped and it will only attack the player who stands closest to the deer. Is is even possible to make a script like this?

(I'm not sure if this is the right board but I think so).

function onCombat(cid, target)
	local p = getThingPos(cid)
	for x = p.x-1, p.x+1 do
		for y = p.y-1, p.y+1 do
			if not (p.x == x and p.y == y) and doTileQueryAdd(cid, {x=x, y=y, z=p.z}) == 1 then
				return false
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

Remove it from login.lua, and add it to the monster file(s):

	<script>
		<event name="DeerAttack"/>
	</script>

OK I will try it but I'm not sure where to put everything.

I made a new script (deerattack.lua) in data\creaturescripts\scripts where I used this:

function onCombat(cid, target)
	local p = getThingPos(cid)
	for x = p.x-1, p.x+1 do
		for y = p.y-1, p.y+1 do
			if not (p.x == x and p.y == y) and doTileQueryAdd(cid, {x=x, y=y, z=p.z}) == 1 then
				return false
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

And added this line in the creaturescripts.xml file.

<event type="combat" name="DeerAttack" event="script" value="deerattack.lua"/>

Then I went over to the deer.xml in monsters folder and added

	<script>
		<event name="DeerAttack"/>
	</script>

as you said. And still the deer does not attack me when I trap it. Hmm....
Did I do it right?

EDIT: Btw I will give Rep+ to all of you who tried to help me :thumbup:

You have to add a melee attack.

	<attacks>
		<attack name="melee" interval="2000" min="0" max="-2"/>
	</attacks>

Done it already and it didn't work...
I can add that I am using TFS 0.4. If you can, can you try this on a TFS 0.4 server and see if it works for you?

Okay then let's debug the script, fyi it works just fine in 0.3.6

function onCombat(cid, target)
	local p = getThingPos(cid)
	for x = p.x-1, p.x+1 do
		for y = p.y-1, p.y+1 do
			if not (p.x == x and p.y == y) then
				doCreatureSay(cid, tostring(doTileQueryAdd(cid, {x=x, y=y, z=p.z})), TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
				if doTileQueryAdd(cid, {x=x, y=y, z=p.z}) == 1 then
					return false
				end
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end

getting any numbers now?

 

[SpO0KIe]

Nope :/ it didn't say anything...

(cid) - get numbers if you attack any monster.

 

[SpO0KIe]

Where are these nummers suppose to show?

 

[Cykotitan]

they should be orange and should show up on the creature (in this case, deer) every time it tries to attack

 

[SpO0KIe]

They didn't :S I did get any numbers...
