[Summon] limit One use, till creature death . Action script on item use. HELP

[Blood BlvD Ot]

I got it set up so u can summon the creature on item use.
I need it so that u can only summon one creature on using this, and u cannot summon again untill that creature has died or gone away on the event of a player log off.

This is the beginning of what we've got.

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)


local pos = getThingPos(cid)

if item.itemid == # then


	doConvinceCreature(cid, doCreateMonster("SUMMON", pos))
 

else
doPlayerSendCancel(cid,"MESSAGE")
end
	doSendMagicEffect(topos,40)
return 1
end

function

function

if table.maxn(getCreatureSummons(cid)) > 1 then
	doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You can't summon more.")
else
	doConvinceCreature(blabla)
end

Or...

if table.maxn(getCreatureSummons(cid)) > 1 then
	for _, s  in ipairs(getCreatureSummons(cid)) do
		if getCreatureName(s) == "SUMMON NAME" then
			doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You've already summoned " .. SUMMON NAME .. ".")
		else
			doConvinceblabla...
		end
	end
end

OMFG I never thought of doing it reversed like that thats awesome !!

 

[Blood BlvD Ot]

but it wont summon a monster in this script for some reason..
the summon command is correct its just not workin with the script

 

[Blood BlvD Ot]

This is the working script :

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)


local pos = getThingPos(cid)

if table.maxn(getCreatureSummons(cid)) > 0 then

doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You can't summon more.")

else

doConvinceCreature(cid, doCreateMonster("Yeti", pos))

end

return 1

end

            doCreatureSay(cid, "You cannot use in PZ!", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
        return true

    if table.maxn(getCreatureSummons(cid)) > 0 then
            doPlayerSendCancel(cid, "You can't summon more.")
