Summon spell

[Alaa Adel]

Hello
can someone tell me how to make a spell that summons 3 monsters without params and stuff... just when i say the spell it summons some number of monsters... that will be cool.

 

[Alaa Adel]

ok will try this

 

[Alaa Adel]

it still doesn't work.
the monster attacks me

In the xml of the monster, set flag convinceable to 1.

<flag convinceable="1"/>

 

[Alaa Adel]

already done :/ did you test it with a normal player?

 

[Limos]

Yes..
The monster should be convinceable to be able to be convinced with that function in the script.
Reload monsters after you changed that or restart the server. Also make sure you edited the right monster.

 

[Alaa Adel]

realoaded and restarted the server and its still the same!!!

 

[Limos]

If you change the monster in the spell script to for example a rat, are they summons or also wild monsters?

 

[Alaa Adel]

Oh sorry i made a mistake now it works thanks

 

[Alaa Adel]

Do you know how to make the monsters disappear?

 

[Limos]

You can remove the summons like I did here.

i've copied the first part and it didn't work

 

[Alaa Adel]

i've changed fire devil to my monster's name

Use the function

local function doRemoveSummon(cid)
     for _, m in pairs(getCreatureSummons(cid)) do
         if getCreatureName(m) == "Dragon" then
             doRemoveCreature(m)
         end
     end
     return true
end

To execute the function after 20 seconds, so the summons will be removed after 20 seconds.

addEvent(doRemoveSummon, 20 * 1000, cid)

 

[Alaa Adel]

I meant a spell that removes it, not to get removed after some time...

 

[Limos]

Then you can just do it without the function addEvent (this function executes other functions after a certain time).

doRemoveSummon(cid)

You can add that to any spell script and it will remove the summons with the name you choose.

 

[Alaa Adel]

Just put this in the lua file ?!

 

[Limos]

In the spell script you want to use to remove the summons.

 

[Alaa Adel]

Hahahaha I didn't expect itsbthat easy thank you

Post the script. I don't have psychic powers to know what you added in the script
