Lua Move monster to spawn pos when no target

[silveralol]

hello folks, I compile my source with a new function called moveTo... then, with this function I want to send my monsters to the spawn position when not have any target
also remove the monster when go out of the spawn area

function onThink(creature)
    if not creature:isMonster() then 
        return true
    end
    local monster = creature:getMonster()
    local pos = monster:getSpawnPosition()
    if not pos then
        return true
    end
    if not monster:getTarget() then
        monster:moveTo(pos)
        return true
    end
    if not monster:isInSpawnRange(monster:getPosition()) then
        if monster:getTarget() then
            monster:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_POFF)
            monster:remove()
        else
            monster:moveTo(pos)
        end
    end
    return true
end

the check if the monsters is out of the spawn range works, the monsters dissapear and summon another
the problem is not with the function moveTo() I test it with players and works fine...
Also I need check the runHealth, but the function MonsterType(monster):getRunHealth() seems don't work properly...
In my source I removed the check

if (!isInSpawnRange(_position)) {
        g_game.internalTeleport(this, masterPos);
        setIdle(true);
 }

how make it work ? :S

use monster:getType():getRunHealth(), should work
why make a new function to teleport monster? just use monster:teleportTo(pos)?

the function don't "teleport" the new function make the monster walk to the positiion parameter, it will be like the rl
also you don't tell about the issue :/ I need make work the function before handle with runHealth

are you saying you want it to walk back to spawn position or teleport?

 

[Zothion]

so you want the monster to walk back to the spawn when it leaves the spawn range? and your moveTo() function isnt working at all? try troubleshooting moveTo, or just use doMoveCreature(cid, dir) with the getPathTo position list

here the function...

as I said, the function works I TEST WITH PLAYERS!

 

[Zothion]

no idea why it would work for players but not monsters, but as i said, try using doMoveCreature(cid, dir) with the table returned by getPathTo function (your moveTo() function uses the getPathTo table anyway, it just uses autowalk instead of force-moving creating, i guess)

if monster doesn't have targetList onThink() does not activate.

 

[silveralol]

if monster doesn't have targetList onThink() does not activate.

nice to know, thank you, then how I'll check ? :S

somewhere else or use addEvent()

 

[silveralol]

somewhere else or use addEvent()

thank you, I almost resolve this and find the bug, the problem is with the function moveTo ... I test with teleportTo and works perfect, I need to fix the moveTo

 

[whitevo]

moveTo() is Item() method

you don't read what I said ? :S
