Problem auto death channel

[Exactly]

Hey,

What do I have to do to make the death channel appear to everyone immediately after logging on to the character?

I use this script:
CreatureEvent - See deaths in a special channel, look if the player was killed, slain or crushed.

Rep++ for help

I found this while searching in google.
CreatureEvent - [TFS 1.x] Custom Chat Channels (Name, Text + Open onLogin)

You should have said that in your original post.

All you said was "What do I have to do to make the death channel appear to everyone immediately after logging on to the character?" and then linked to a script. Sometimes you find the solution to a problem inside of an unrelated issue. The script I linked to is not related to yours however it does contain information which can be applied to the issue. "opening the chat window on login". If 0.4 does not allow this to take place without a source edit then please considering updating to a more current branch.

What i need write on login.lua for this?

I don't know enough about your distro to be sure but this function exists:

sendChannelMessage(channelId, type, message)

so you could write

sendChannelMessage(10, TALKTYPE_SAY, '')

and, assuming it opens the channel to send the message, you would get a new line every time somebody logs in

This is or something similar of what is available to his server is what he needs to open the chat window on login, but he didn't want to bother reading the page i linked. He just wanted someone to modify the script with the requirements all laid out.

function onLogin(cid)
local player = Player(cid)
  player:openChannel(10)
  return true
end

this is for 1.2 tfs playerpenChannel(10) not work on 0.4

This is why you should read the rules and follow them; Rules for the Support board
#5

The function you are looking for is doPlayerOpenChannel(cid, channelId).

May I ask where did you have to look to find that function

Not gonna do one of those "let me google that for you" haha, but thats what I normally do
Ex if it's 0.4 I just google "tfs 0.4 github" then find one with a source code, then open up luascript.cpp
global860/luascript.cpp at master · otservme/global860 · GitHub

If you got the source code downloaded you can just as easy check it on your computer.

Edit but it isn't easy when people don't write that TFS version they got, but he wrote above that he used 0.4

1. function onLogin(cid)
2. local player = Player(cid)
3. doPlayerOpenChannel(cid,10).
4. return true
5. end

this is ok?

 

[Aled]

no

function onLogin(cid)
   doPlayerOpenChannel(cid,10)
   return true
end

is all you need
or you could add only this line

doPlayerOpenChannel(cid,10)

to your existing login.lua if there already is one in your creaturescripts folder
