Spell Teleportation

luigilc · Aug 28, 2011

I'm trying to make a spell that teleports the caster and it's target to a x,y,z position but I'm failing hard, I'm starting to learn lua and I can't figure out how to make it to work. Can anyone help me?

LUA:

function onCastSpell(cid, var)

local teleport = {x=1000, y=1000, z=7}
local teleportDuration = 10000 -- in milliseconds (10000 = 10 seconds)

local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_DISTANCEEFFECT, CONST_ANI_ENERGY)
	local returnPlayer = doTeleportThing(cid, pos)
	
	if isPlayer(cid) and isPlayer(target) == true then
	addEvent(returnPlayer, teleportDuration, cid, getThingPosition(cid))
	addEvent(returnPlayer, teleportDuration, target, getThingPosition(target))
	doTeleportThing(cid, teleport)
	doTeleportThing(target, teleport)
	elseif not isPlayer(target) then
	doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,25,"You must be attacking another player.")
end	
return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end

Sorry thought this was done. I missed a param.

Code:

data/spells/scripts/attack/teleport strike.lua

LUA:

local combat = createCombatObject()

Nice Syntax, but i want the marked player-monster teleport back too.
Appreciate your help

Shadowsong · May 19, 2015

Here, use this, just tested it:

Code:

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
local target = variantToNumber(var)
local teleportPos = {x = 1475, y = 1514, z = 9}
local teleportDuration = 10000 -- in milliseconds (10000 = 10 seconds)
local savePos, savePos2 = getThingPos(cid), getThingPos(target)

doTeleportThing(cid, teleportPos)
doTeleportThing(target, teleportPos)

addEvent(function()
doTeleportThing(cid, savePos)
doTeleportThing(target, savePos2)
end, teleportDuration)

end

EDIT: You might want to add some more effects/messages or other aesthetics.
