Lua onCastSpell - sending to param

[Cadyan]

TFS 1.0
This returns the creature not being found. What is the correct way to do it?
function onCastSpell(cid, var)
doTargetCombatHealth(0, getPlayerByName(param), COMBAT_HEALING, 1, 5, CONST_ME_HOLYAREA)
return true
end

TFS version?

Param isen't indexed, you only have cid and var that you can use atm, param:getName() would not work.

 

[Cadyan]

So how would I target health, or like set a storage value on the player that was casted on?

 

[Limos]

function onTargetCreature(cid, target)
   if target and isPlayer(target) then
     -- what it should do
   end
   return true
end
setCombatCallback(combat, CALLBACK_PARAM_TARGETCREATURE, "onTargetCreature")

This will effect targets that will be hit by the combat, target is the monster/player that will be hit by the combat, cid the the person who casts the spell.

Using var parameter. Get the number variant and use it as the player id.
