Request magic wall surounding for a monster

[Linryt]

I have this sweet monster idea and I want a monster to be able to shoot magic walls around people like rune ID:2292.
This will be for event purpouses so if anyone has this script or knows how to make it post it for me please. ^_^

Sincerelly, Linryt.

i had it working before, but for some reason i can't get this to work again

you might have to create a custom spell for this.

 

[zakius]

imo you HAVE to put custom spell
but its so easy...
try

local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_ENERGY)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_CREATEITEM, 1497)
local area = createCombatArea({

	{1, 1, 1},
	{1, 2, 1},
	{1, 1, 1}

})
setCombatArea(combat, area)
function onCastSpell(cid, var)
	return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

not tested, hope you can make spells.xml and monstername.xml lines...

 

[Linryt]

So I put this in the monster script right? Allthough I ave no clue how to make the spells xml etc.
If i'm wrong or anything please enlighten me and please post any other script I may need for it.

I'm just not much of a scripter just trying to learn.

Sincerelly, Linryt.

[Linryt]

So If i'm right I make a lua script called magic wall bomb of what zakius gave me Then what I tried was I take the script that cykotitan gave me and I put that under attacks in my monster file (which didn't work) I'll post the monster script and and then any of you please tell me if you know what I did wrong?

[Linryt]

hows that supposed to work? please just copy my script paste it then make it right and repost it because if the attack goes through a script hows that supposed to work?

 

[Cykotitan]

That's how I had it working for 2 years by now, so don't question it.

Just replace the corresponding part in your script.

 

[HeberPcL]

It is possible in TFS 0.4?
I try, but not work:

<attack name="Magic Wall Bomb" interval="2000" chance="20" target="1" range="7"/>

Are you getting any errors?

Simple and easy:

data/spells/scripts/Random_mw.lua

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local item = {}
local n = 10
repeat
    local t = getCreaturePosition(getCreatureTarget(cid))
    t.x = t.x-1+math.random(0,2)
    t.y = t.y-1+math.random(0,2)

    if queryTileAddThing(cid, t) == RETURNVALUE_NOERROR then
        if math.random(0,1) == 1 then
            item = doCreateItem(1498, 1, t)
        else
            item = doCreateItem(1499, 1, t)
        end
        doDecayItem(item)
        n = 0
    else
        n = n - 1
    end
until n == 0

return true
end

data/spells/spells.xml --edit it as you want

<instant name="randommw" words="!randommw" needtarget="1" enabled="0" script="random_mw.lua"/>

In any monster xml file add:

<attack type="instant" name="randommw" chance="40" interval="2000"/>
