Lua [TFS 1.0] Script/item for double-exp with duration?
- Thread starter Romantix
- Start date
Solution
Use the event onGainExperience.
Code:
function onUse(cid, item, fromPosition, itemEx, toPosition)
local player = Player(cid)
if player:getStorageValue(1234) >= os.time() then
return true
end
player:setStorageValue(1234, os.time() + 86400)
Item(item.uid):remove(1)
return true
end
function Player:onGainExperience(source, exp, rawExp)
if self:getStorageValue(1234) >= os.time() then
exp = exp * 2
end
return exp
end
When a player has group_id 1, it means he/she's just a normal player with regular playing rights. A group_id of 3 would be "god". In some cases, there will be things that will not work for "god" characters, simply because it's unnecessary. For all of your testing, you should do it on a character that has group_id of 1.

Does the server spit out any errors? I've copy-pasted the script into current TFS 1.0 and it works. Maybe you've already registered an another action event on that item?
That's strange... I have no idea why it isn't working. Does the events/scripts/player.lua file look like this:
?
Code:
[... other functions ...]
function Player:onGainExperience(source, exp, rawExp)
if self:getStorageValue(1234) >= os.time() then
exp = exp * 2
end
return exp
end
[... other functions ...]@Damc - ahhh, I didn't add that to player.lua, now its working.
However, even with this set time, it appears the storage tables cannot be manually removed from the database. (it sticks to player)
Once the duration expires... will the double exp no longer last? Sorry if this sounds like a primitive question..

If you modify the database when the server is running and the player is online then most likely any changes you've made will be lost, as the server stores most player data locally for performance reasons. When he/she logs out, any changes get overwritten. Once the bonus expires it should be possible to get it again. You can test it by setting the duration to a few seconds and then see if it works like you expect it to
.
You may not be able to achieve this, I have a custom TFS 1.0... you're likely missing the attributes, but I believe it can be attained from the nightlies revision.

In short:
1. events/scripts/player.lua:
function PlayernGainExperience(source, exp, rawExp)
if self:getStorageValue(1234) >= os.time() then
exp = exp * 2
end
return exp
end
2. actions.xml
<action itemid="12662" script="custom/exp.lua"/>
custom/exp.lua is the script/folder location
3. events.xml
<event class="Player" method="onGainExperience" enabled="1"/>

You need to activate the event in your xml file, if it isen't activated already.
Otherwise restart the server.
And you need to set the storage value; 1234 to like os.time() + 60 * 1000 to give the player 1 min extra.
