On death transforms into another monster?

[kessykins]

Is it possible for a creature to die and on death becomes another monster?

If so.. what would need to be changed in the creature file? ;o

 

[Doggynub]

hmm.. dont get it , you mean his corpse or like if i killed rat and it is going to die it turns into lione ???

 

[kessykins]

Ehh.. basically yes
In the end I want a custom monster to transform into another creature on death
IE: my zombie does and instantly becomes an exploding corpse xD

 

[Doggynub]

so turn into another moner then? right?

No fear, high pro is here...

Lemme ask you.. when someone kills a certain monster of yours, this monster will fall into a corpse, but when it does a new monster will appear.. ?

 

[kessykins]

Ok I'll spill the details :9

I want a custom monster called "Enraged Zombie" to die<without a corpse> but as soon as it dies, I want another creature to take its place.. Quas mentioned it's do-able but something needs to be changed in the creatureevents.. I just don't know what x.x

Here's what the end result should look like

 

[RealSoft]

easy cake, the monster. go monsters/enraged zombie.xml and put "corpse" to "0"..
and then in creaturescripts.. onkill.. put

function onKill (cid, target, pos)
if creature == Enraged Zompie then
pos = getcreaturepos(target)
dosummoncreature (New monster, pos)
end
end

I know that was a cheap one but it's an example. I'm going for swim now so I don't have time to make the script. if you haven't figure it out I'll make a small tutorial when I get back..


have fun

 

[Doggynub]

he dont want the corpse to appear .....

 

[kessykins]

I'll give it a try - TY!
Have fun swimming =)

edit: It didn't work :/

 

[Doggynub]

ok try this [no corpse, no blood, some effect]

local monster = "Rat"
local summon = "dog"



function onKill(cid, target)
if getCreatureName(target) == monster then
local t = getThingPos(target)
doCreatureSay(target, "You think I die easy!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
addEvent(doCleanTile,0.1,t)
doSendMagicEffect(t,49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x+1, y= t.y ,z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x-1, y= t.y, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x-1, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x+1, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x+1, y= t.y+1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x-1, y= t.y+1, z= t.z},49)
doSummonCreature(summon, t)
end
 return true
end

 

[kessykins]

It loaded fine but on testing.. nothing was summoned :/


I tried this and my server crashed as soon as the creature died:

local monster = "Enraged Zombie"
local summon = "Exploding Corpse"



function onKill(cid, target)
if getCreatureName(target) == monster then
local t = getThingPos(target)
doCreatureSay(target, "I'm not finished with you yet! ", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
doSummonCreature(summon, t)
doSendMagicEffect(t,49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x+1, y= t.y ,z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x-1, y= t.y, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x-1, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x+1, y= t.y-1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x+1, y= t.y+1, z= t.z},49)
doSendMagicEffect({x= t.x-1, y= t.y+1, z= t.z},49)
addEvent(doCleanTile,0.1,t)
end
return true
end

tfs?try again cause i tested on 0.3.6 ....[if still crash after you retry then

local monster = "Enraged Zombie"
local summon = "Exploding Corpse"
function onKill(cid, target)
        if getCreatureName(target) == monster then
                         local t = getThingPos(target)
               addEvent(doCleanTile,0.1,t)
               doCreatureSay(target, "I'm not finished with you yet! ", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
               doSummonCreature(summon, t)
              doSendMagicEffect(t,49)
       end
      return true
end

 

[kessykins]

0.3.6 :>

 

[kessykins]

Should the creaturescript be this?

<event type="kill" name="EnragedZombie" event="script" value="enragedzombie.lua"/>



Ok I copied and pasted what you wrote and onKill the server crashed wtfff

 

[Doggynub]

ye it should be like this and you regestire event name in login.lua, try and if not retry my last one then

 

[kessykins]

ok so I made the enragedzombie.lua

local monster = "Enraged Zombie"
local summon = "Exploding Corpse"
function onKill(cid, target)
if getCreatureName(target) == monster then
local t = getThingPos(target)
doCreatureSay(target, "I'm not finished with you yet! ", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
doSummonCreature(summon, t)
doSendMagicEffect(t,49)
end
return true
end

the login.lua

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "EnragedZombie")

return true
end

and the creature script

<event type="kill" name="EnragedZombie" event="script" value="Enragedzombie.lua"/>

and it's now crashing the server when anyone logs on x.x

 

[Doggynub]

so let me do somthng and try ..

goto creature event create lua called xxx.lua

local monster = "Enraged Zombie"
local summon = "Exploding Corpse"
function onKill(cid, target)
if isPlayer(target) then
return true
end
if isPlayer(cid) and getCreatureName(target) == monster then
local t = getThingPos(target)
doCreatureSay(target, "I'm not finished with you yet! ", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
doSummonCreature(summon, t)
doSendMagicEffect(t,49)
end
return true
end

creature.xml

<event type="kill" name="t" event="script" value="xxx.lua"/>

in log in

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "t")

Btw you made somthng wron when making the line to log.lua as this script has nothng to do with log in

 

[kessykins]

ok so i followed you instructions and just put the registercreatureevent at the bottom of the login.lua.. it's now giving me this error..when logging on it instantly crashes the server x.x

[14/08/2010 05:13:11] [Error - CreatureScript Interface]

oh god.. i can see it now.. it's going to be 1 little typo >.< it always is!! lmao

 

[Doggynub]

where did you put the regestire it must be like that : [scroll down till you see where it is , must be after the function onlogin, and before its end]

local config = {
	loginMessage = getConfigValue('loginMessage'),
	useFragHandler = getBooleanFromString(getConfigValue('useFragHandler'))
}

function onLogin(cid)
	local loss = getConfigValue('deathLostPercent')
	if(loss ~= nil) then
		doPlayerSetLossPercent(cid, PLAYERLOSS_EXPERIENCE, loss * 10)
	end

	local accountManager = getPlayerAccountManager(cid)
	if(accountManager == MANAGER_NONE) then
		local lastLogin, str = getPlayerLastLoginSaved(cid), config.loginMessage
		if(lastLogin > 0) then
			doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_DEFAULT, str)
			str = "Your last visit was on " .. os.date("%a %b %d %X %Y", lastLogin) .. "."
		else
			str = str .. " Please choose your outfit."
			doPlayerSendOutfitWindow(cid)
		end

		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_DEFAULT, str)
	elseif(accountManager == MANAGER_NAMELOCK) then
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, "Hello, it appears that your character has been namelocked, what would you like as your new name?")
	elseif(accountManager == MANAGER_ACCOUNT) then
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, "Hello, type 'account' to manage your account and if you want to start over then type 'cancel'.")
	else
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, "Hello, type 'account' to create an account or type 'recover' to recover an account.")
	end

	if(not isPlayerGhost(cid)) then
		doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
	end

	registerCreatureEvent(cid, "Mail")
	registerCreatureEvent(cid, "GuildMotd")
	
[B][I][U][COLOR="red"]registerCreatureEvent(cid, "t")[/COLOR][/U][/I][/B]
	

registerCreatureEvent(cid, "Idle")
	if(config.useFragHandler) then
		registerCreatureEvent(cid, "SkullCheck")
	end

	registerCreatureEvent(cid, "ReportBug")
	registerCreatureEvent(cid, "AdvanceSave")
	return true
end
