Lua No AoE Effect on Undead Legion

[BugbyJones]

Hi,

My Undead Legion spell only creates one skeleton and only if you're standing directly on the corpse. It should resurrect all corpses to skeletons over a certain area.

Here is the line in Spells.XML:

<instant name="Undead Legion" words="exana mas mort" lvl="30" mana="500" aggressive="1" needlearn="1" script="spells/undead legion.lua">
        <vocation name="Druid" />
        <vocation name="Elder Druid" />
    </instant>

And here is the script for the spell .lua:

local combat = Combat()
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_TYPE, COMBAT_EARTHDAMAGE)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_GREEN_RINGS)
combat:setArea(createCombatArea(AREA_CIRCLE5X5))

local humanBodies = {
    4240, 4241, 4247, 4248
}

function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
    local position = Variant.getPosition(variant)
    local tile = Tile(position)
    if tile then
        local corpse = tile:getTopDownItem()
        if corpse then
            local itemType = corpse:getType()
            if not table.contains(humanBodies, itemType:getId()) then
                if itemType:isCorpse() and itemType:isMovable() then
                    local monster = Game.createMonster("Skeleton", position)
                    if monster then
                        corpse:remove()
                        monster:setMaster(creature)
                        position:sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_BLUE)
                        return true
                    end
                end
            end
        end
    end

    creature:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_POFF)
    creature:sendCancelMessage(RETURNVALUE_NOTPOSSIBLE)
    return false
end

I will continue trying to fix it myself for now and will send the solution if I manage to.

Thanks.

Edit to add- you can't actually cast the spell at all unless standing on a corpse.

It says "sorry not possible" instead of casting the spell and showing the AoE animation etc.

try this:

local combat = Combat()
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_GREEN_RINGS)

local area = createCombatArea(AREA_CIRCLE5X5)
combat:setArea(area)

function onTargetTile(creature, position)
    local tile = Tile(position)
    if tile then
        local corpse = tile:getTopDownItem()
        if corpse then
            local itemType = corpse:getType()
            if itemType:isCorpse() and itemType:isMovable() then
                local monster = Game.createMonster("Skeleton", position)
                if monster then
                    corpse:remove()
                    creature:addSummon(monster)
                    position:sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_BLUE)
                    return true
                end
            end
        end
    end
end

combat:setCallback(CALLBACK_PARAM_TARGETTILE, "onTargetTile")

function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
    return combat:execute(creature, variant)
end

to see if u script is working or why not, try using print after some function

Legend, it works well. I just need to play around with the AoE size and animation to match old Tibia. I can do that easily.

Thank you.

I just changed the animation and area to fit your script
