Skills problem

[Aarthec]

doPlayerAddSkill(cid, amount)
I guess that's what I should use to make the player recieve a skill but I don't get how I should use it.
I tried with

doPlayerAddSkill(cid, skillid, amount))

But that didn't work ^^

Also tried with:

doPlayerAddSkillTry(cid, SKILL_SWORD, getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, SKILL_SWORD, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, SKILL_SWORD))

Doesn't work.

Maybe it doesn't work because of my config.lua (rateSkill = 0). So how can I do this?

 

[zakius]

These are multipliers, if you set it below 1 it should need less tries than in previous skill level, maybe server behaves a bit strange if it is set wrong, try sth like 1.05 for almost exact number of tries

Edited my first post. (Still need help)

 

[JDB]

Maybe use these formulas.

local current = getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, SKILL_SWORD, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, SKILL_SWORD))
local skillTries = (getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, SKILL_SWORD, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, SKILL_SWORD) +add) / getConfigInfo("rateSkill"))

 

[Aarthec]

Too advanced for me oO
Could you explain?

and is it really possible if I have "rateSkill = 0"?

 

[JDB]

Not Tested

data/lib/functions.lua

function doPlayerAddSkillSword(cid, amount)
local current = getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, SKILL_SWORD, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, SKILL_SWORD))
local skillTries = (getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, SKILL_SWORD, getPlayerSkillLevel(cid, SKILL_SWORD)+amount) / getConfigInfo("rateSkill"))
    if isPlayer(cid) == TRUE then
        doPlayerAddSkillSword(cid, (current + skillTries))
    else
        error("Player not found.")
    end
end

Example:

local stroage = 1234
function onUse(item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
	if getPlayerLevel(cid) >= 100 then
		if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, storage) == -1 then
			doPlayerAddSkillSword(cid, 1)
			setPlayerStorageValue(cid, storage, 1)
			doSendAnimatedText(getCreaturePosition(cid), "Sword Up!", TEXTCOLOR_LIGHTBLUE)
		else
			doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You have already used this.")
		end
	else
		doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You must be atleast level 100 to use this.")
	end
	return TRUE
end

alot of errors ;o

 

[JDB]

Try it now...this is just an example, I don't know if it will work.
(I edited the function.lua part).

 

[Aarthec]

Same error, d*mn.

 

[JDB]

0.3.5 Lua Functions:

getPlayerRequiredSkillTries(cid, skillId, skillLevel) //TODO

I guess it won't work, because it doesn't exist yet. :thumbup:

 

[Aarthec]

So it isn't working yet which makes it impossible to fix my problem without source editing? -.-

I really appreciate your help though, rep++.

 

[JDB]

Yea, np...
if only that function was in 0.3.5, I think it would work.

2 points to new bar! :thumbup:

 

[Aarthec]

doPlayerAddSkill(cid, SKILL_SWORD)
works if I have "rateSkill = 1" in config.

Is there a chance I could make it work with that function?

 

[JDB]

Maybe?

doPlayerAddSkill(cid, SKILL_SWORD) / getConfigInfo("rateSkill"))

 

[Aarthec]

Nope :/
