Request small error fix is spell

[izaak]

this script summons 4 monsters on cast spell but it also gives 4 errors oncastspell
it works though the summons become mine and the dont attack me but if any1 could help me get the errors out of my console i would apreciate it

heres the script

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local dir = getPlayerLookDir(cid)
local pos = getPlayerPosition(cid)
local Monster = demonic soldier
if(dir==1)then
	pos.x = pos.x + 1
elseif(dir==2)then
	pos.y = pos.y + 1
elseif(dir==3)then
	pos.x = pos.x - 1
elseif(dir==0)then
	pos.y = pos.y - 1
end

doSummonMonster(cid)
doConvinceCreature(cid,"demonic soldier")
doSummonMonster(cid)
doConvinceCreature(cid,"demonic soldier")	
doSummonMonster(cid)
doConvinceCreature(cid,"demonic soldier")
doSummonMonster(cid)
doConvinceCreature(cid)			
	return LUA_NO_ERROR

end

and here is my error in the console

This isn't tested.

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
	local dir = getPlayerLookDir(cid)
	local pos = getCreaturePosition(cid)
	
	if(dir==1)then
		pos.x = pos.x + 1
	elseif(dir==2)then
		pos.y = pos.y + 1
	elseif(dir==3)then
		pos.x = pos.x - 1
	elseif(dir==0)then
		pos.y = pos.y - 1
	end
	
	local c = "Demonic Soldier"
	if table.maxn(getCreatureSummons(cid)) <= 0 then
		for i = 1, 4 do
			doSummonCreature(c[i])
		end
	else
		return doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "Sorry, not possible.")
	end
	
	return true
end

Try

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
	if getTileInfo(getThingPos(cid)).protection then
		return not doPlayerSendDefaultCancel(cid, RETURNVALUE_ACTIONNOTPERMITTEDINPROTECTIONZONE)
	end

	local n, v = #getCreatureSummons(cid)
	for i = 1, 4 - n do
		v = doCreateMonster('Demonic Soldier', getClosestFreeTile(cid, getThingPos(cid), true), false)
		if isCreature(v) then
			doConvinceCreature(cid, v)
			doSendMagicEffect(getThingPos(v), CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
		end
	end

	local f = #getCreatureSummons(cid)
	return v and f > n and doSendMagicEffect(getThingPos(cid), CONST_ME_MAGIC_BLUE) and (f < 4 and doPlayerSendCancel(cid, 'There is not enough room.') or true) or not doPlayerSendCancel(cid, 'You cannot summon more creatures.')
end
