Compiling OTHire - Can't use potions on rope spot.

Extrodus · Nov 13, 2014

So if you try to use a potion on the rope up tile, it will splash on the ground instead of giving it to the player.

If anyone has any ideas on why this is happening please let me know. I have re-wrote the liquids.lua, and it still doesn't work.

If anyone see's the problem, I'd be forever in your debt. I personally feel it has to do with something in sources after rewriting the liquids.lua; but who knows.. definitely not me! Thanks in advance!

Rope spots probably have a flag set to be top priority when using an item on a position.
If the position has a item with that flag the client will always send the stackpos of rope spot instead of a creature standing on the same tile.
Just guessing though.

You can check if item2.itemid is equal to the rope spot id and if so redirect the action to a creature on that tile.

No Comments on the actual script itself.

end

Anytime you are confused as to why a script isn't working, just add in doCreatureSay to each part of your script and have it say outload what is happening.
This way you can know where exactly in the script the problem is.

Then once you know, change things till it works. (You might of found out about Summ's suggestion yourself by doing this kind of debugging)

Extrodus · Nov 14, 2014

@Flatlander - Thanks a million man, that's actually such a smart way of doing it!

On Hole Fluid Use:
Fluid Script Start
Using item on another item outside Container
Running Fluids to Ground Part of script

Off Hole Fluid Use:
Fluid Script Start
Running Potion Use On Player Part of Script
cid is a player
Aaaah...
Running Fluids to Ground Part of script

So I think @Summ was right, it seems something is causing the floor id to effect the script. Do you guys possibly know which file in sources would most likely contain the problem, or even a keyword/function name to search on github.

I assume it is client sided based on .dat file.

doChangeTypeItem(item.uid, TYPE_BEER)
elseif item2.itemid == 1773 then
doChangeTypeItem(item.uid, TYPE_WINE)
elseif item2.itemid == 1776 then
doChangeTypeItem(item.uid, TYPE_LEMONADE)
elseif(isInArray(NORMAL_CORPSE_STAGE_I, item2.itemid) == TRUE) then
doChangeTypeItem(item.uid, TYPE_BLOOD)
elseif(isInArray(SLIME_CORPSES, item2.itemid) == TRUE) then
doChangeTypeItem(item.uid, TYPE_SLIME)
elseif item2.itemid >= 371 and item2.itemid <= 382
or item2.itemid >= 356 and item2.itemid <= 367 then
doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You cannot use this object.")
end
end
return TRUE
end

This way you can find out EXACTLY what item2 is when over a hole.

Thanks for the response @Flatlander but it seems OTHire doesn't support the "table.serialize" function you want to check.

Code:

Lua Script Error: [Action Interface]
data/actions/scripts/fluids.lua:onUse

data/actions/scripts/fluids.lua:33: attempt to call field 'serialize' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
  data/actions/scripts/fluids.lua:33: in function <data/actions/scripts/fluids.lua:32>

What does serialize do? Remember, this is based on OTServ 0.6.3 so if the serialize is from TFS that may be the problem.

I've searched GitHub and the closest result to what you might be looking for is table.find which ends up outputting this message when I use it.

Line:

Code:

doCreatureSay(cid, table.find(item2), 1)

Output:

Code:

Haha, literally doesn't say anything except a " " (space)

I thought it was a basic LUA function but apparently not.

It basically turns a table into a string so you can print it.

@Flatlander - Well I managed to get it to spit out a number by using this.

Code:

doCreatureSay(cid, item2.uid, 1)

Code:

11:26 GM Exploze: 71344

Problem is, that is definitely not an ItemID.

How is that not an item.uid? on my TFS uids start at 70000 and go up from there.

do this.
replace

Code:

doCreatureSay(cid, item2.uid, 1)

with

Code:

str = ""
for _, tid in ipairs(item2) do
str = str ..tid.." "
end
doCreatureSay(cid, str, 1)

It will basically output everything that item2 is.

I hope this bump is ok. I solved it by using:

getTileItemById(<posToCheck>, <itemId>).uid ~= 0

It will return a uid if that item exists anywhere in that tile. Just add this to your if-statement

okurde · Nov 17, 2016

It does not work for me or I am doing something wrong... Does anyone know how it can be solved?

I was trying to use potion on yourself when I was on ladder tile - potion does not work
I printed:
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,25,getTileItemById(toPosition, 1386).uid)
It prints high value of course when I stand there, on other tiles it prints "0" but I have no idea how to use it

Compiling OTHire - Can't use potions on rope spot.
