CreatureEvent Party Dueling (Summons)

[J.Dre]

Party Dueling
For quests, tasks, or whatever.

Information
This script was made for and tested on TFS 0.3.7, it will not work for TFS 0.2 in its current form. I made this script for someone who requested it for "Pokemon" stuff, if I remember correctly. I thought since the thread was closed and renamed, no one would ever find it via searching, or it would be more difficult than it already is. Therefor, I decided to make a thread to share this with others who may be interested in such a script for whatever purpose. Anyway, I'm sure it will be of use to someone. Even if there's only one person I helped by posting this, I'm still happy to have done so - enjoy!

Note: The current form of this script is very simple and basic. I did not add many additional features because I want people to learn how to do so themselves. You can incorporate tasks, missions, or even check areas of the map where this script can be enabled. If you need help, please post here or send me a private message - I'll do my best to assist you, or refer you to someone who can.

What does this script do?
It restricts dueling to those in the same party, specifically with summons.

Need further support?
Please do not be afraid to post here if you need assistance. I may not respond immediately, but I will respond.

Feedback is appreciated!

Hello It works very nice! Thank you.

I only have a little problem. Even though player's pokemon can attack each other while in party, they don't inflict any damage so they can be fighting forever without a winner hehe. Do you have any idea of how can I fix this?

Thank you

 

[J.Dre]

When I tested this myself it worked just fine. Check the monster files and make sure their attacks are properly set. Monsters not hurting each other can be several things...

Thanks for answering!

Hello

Thank you for answering I've already checked the monsters .xml files but I'm not an expert in monster properties so I couldn't identify any abnormality in them. Maybe I'm missing something.

I made the following experiment.

1.- I took two players to a pvp-zone
2.- The world was set to pvp mode
3.- The players started a party in order to allow them to attack each other

Results
1.- The players can attack each other as expected
2.- Pokemon can attack other pokemon but no damage is inflicted among them
3.- Pokemon can attack humans and damage them normally

I attach the .xml files of the monsters I've used in the experiment, maybe they need an aditional property

Once again, thanks for helping, I appreciate it a lot.

Edit: Never mind. I'm not sure why it isn't working. Which TFS are you using?

 

[calderov]

I'm using The Forgotten Server, version 0.3.6

 

[J.Dre]

Try checking the functions list in the server "docs" folder. Compare/contrast them from the script and replace them to match your server. I'm certain this script worked for me, but I was using TFS 0.3.7 - a much later version of TFS than what you're using. Perhaps "onTarget" does not exist in 0.3.6. You may have to try "onAttack" or something else.
