LUA Functions Sticky

[John Adams]

Re: Desynch, I haven't seen it at ALL for myself in weeks... and I used to get it every 30 mins easy before. Maybe it was a bad client

I do see some people strolling along and all of a sudden, a few random odd chars in the console followed by Timeout Up!, but nothing like it used to be.

Yah I made some changes that *might* have improved the situation, but this is one of those bugs that no matter how many times I think I have it beat, it keeps coming back. So I finally stopped mentioning that it *might* have been fixed

[Scatman]

Too cool Nice job LE!

Am I blind or is there no function to make a NPC attack you? for example...

Code: Select all

function dlg_1_1(NPC, Spawn)
	FaceTarget(NPC, Spawn)
	conversation = CreateConversation()

	PlayFlavor(NPC, "voiceover/english/tutorial_revamp/anthony_glavias/fprt_hood06/rcp_anthony002.mp3", "", "", 2414080442, 1536099757, Spawn)
	AddConversationOption(conversation, "Cease your banter draw your blade, fool!", "Combat")
	StartConversation(conversation, NPC, Spawn, "Step down citizen! No one fires Anthony Glavias besides me! Eh, well... not that I would fire myself that is... Bwah! ")
end

function Combat(NPC, Spawn)
	AttackPlayer(NPC, Spawn)   <------------------------- something like that?
end

Just a guess, but I am thinking you could AddHate()?

While filling in some of the Wiki I noticed that the function

Code: Select all

AddQuestStepChat(Quest, StepID, StepText, TaskGroupText, Icon, NPC ID(s))

should probably be changed to

Code: Select all

AddQuestStepChat(Quest, StepID, StepText, TaskGroupID, TaskGroupText, Icon, NPC ID(s))

[Scatman]

Actually, it should be changed to

Code: Select all

AddQuestStepChat(Quest, StepID, StepText, Quantity, TaskGroupText, Icon, NPC ID(s))

Thanks for finding that though!

[Xanibunib]

Ahh, quantity, thats what it is...I'll change the wiki... wait, why would we need a quantity on a Chat step?

[Scatman]

I recently added it after I found a quest in Timorous Deep which required it. You need to talk to 5 slaves and free them. So one step requires 5 chat updates and all 5 spawns have the books over their head.

[Xanibunib]

Ahh I see... I have updated a bunch of the Quest functions on the wiki, would ya mind double checking them when you get some time?

[John Adams]

Awesome, Xan. Thanks for wiki'in up!

[Xanibunib]

I will finish up the Quest section once the pork chops are done!

[Scatman]

E-mail me some?

[Xanibunib]

Could I see an example of a "AddQuestStepKill" with multiple NPC id's in it? Seems like whatever I do it just screws up the step display. Also, if you have a AddQuestStepKill and a AddQuestStepSpell in the same step i'm not getting the icons on the kill step, but they show up once i have completed the step... weird

[John Adams]

Sounds like a great item for the WIKI!!!
