Multi spell commands in single lua ( pause / break )

[udxero]

Okay, i done it long time ago but i dont' remember how..

I want to have a spell that does multiple movements

such as having a spell "wave" out infront of you

so that first it sends out explosion area effect then energy area effect.. ( not at the same time )1 then the other.. 0.o i forget what part of the code to edit..

currently what i'm wanting to do is have the spell move infront of the char
***
C = char
s = spell
***
example:
(step1)
Cs
(step2)
C-S
(step3)
C--S

this would make the spell seem to "wave" i have done it before, but it was a long time ago and i can't remember how now... my current spell ( un complete )

local combat = createCombatObject()
arr = {{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}}

local combat = createCombatObject()
arr1 = {
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
}

local combat = createCombatObject()
arr2 = {
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
}




setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_ENERGYDAMAGE)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_ENERGYAREA)
setCombatFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, -1, -10, -1, -20, 5, 5, 1.4, 2.1)


local area = createCombatArea(arr)
local area1 = createCombatArea(arr1)
local area2 = createCombatArea(arr2)

setCombatArea(combat, area)
setCombatArea(combat, area1)
setCombatArea(combat, area2)

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
	return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

all i need to do is add timing between each area...

local delay = 500
local combat, area = {}, {
	{
		{1},
		{3}
	},
	{
		{1},
		{0},
		{3}
	},
	{
		{1},
		{0},
		{0},
		{3}
	}
}

for i = 1, #area do
	setCombatParam(combat[i], COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_ENERGYDAMAGE)
	setCombatParam(combat[i], COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_ENERGYAREA)
	setCombatFormula(combat[i], COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, -1, -10, -1, -20, 5, 5, 1.4, 2.1)
	setCombatArea(combat[i], createCombatArea(area[i]))
end

local function doIt(cid, i, var)
	return isPlayer(cid) == TRUE and doCombat(cid, combat[i], var)
end

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
	for i = 0, #combat - 1 do
		addEvent(doIt, i * delay, cid, i + 1, var)
	end
	return true
end

Remember to add direction="1" in spells.xml
