OnTargetTile Update Position

[Printer]

Hello,

i wonder if someone have any idea how to update onTargetTile position, E.x if the player move. The area of spell should move along:

Thanks.

Well i like the way of onTargetTile, we can use math.random to get random tiles. But if there is no way, then only way i can think of. Is to do it manually :/

That will not be stable, hmm i am thinking of a new CallBack type to follow creature, but i will face one problem is to change Const Position to Position.

Position nonConstPos = const_cast<Position>(position);?xd

can't you just do smt like

local function randomaoe(cid, playerpos)
    randompos = playerpos+{x = math.random(-3,3), y =math.random(-3,3), z = 0}
    Position(randompos + Position(-6, -5, 0)):sendDistanceEffect(randompos, CONST_ANI_ICE)
    return doCombat(cid, combat1, positionToVariant(randompos))
end

that's what I use for a "snowstorm" spell that follows the player around for a short duration

or maybe that's what u meant with doing it manually

Not sure what you want to do.
But closest I have got with visual auras are in onThink() function in creaturescripts.

I use addEvent() to cut time below 1 sec interval.

No I actually think about using as reference

const Position a = player->getPosition()

Position& s = a;

const Position a = player->getPosition()

Position& s = a;

Yeah, that's kewl too, although this uses less variables thus lesser memory:

Position a = const_cast<Positon>(player->getPosition());
