coin functions

Hello,

I have 2 questions: Is there a lua function that destroys coins? And is there one that will give coins/remove coins from player to npc? Thanks!

There is no LUA to destroy coins. Coins is also exclusive to players, npcs didn't have any on live. That being said they can drop coins as loot and you can set and get the coin loot so that might work for NPC's, for players I will add a Get/Set/Remove for coins to the todo list, they should be simple though and I might be able to get to them tonight.

loot coin functions:
SetLootCoin()
GetLootCoin() - this page seems to have been deleted, will fix that as well

I added the coin functions, they will be up on the emu server tonight, will make it to public svn by Sunday I think.

To transfer coins from player to npc it would be something like this

Code: Select all

function hailed(NPC, Spawn)
    -- 1 Silver
    local coins = 100

    -- Check if Spawn is a player and if so attempt to remove the coins
    if IsPlayer(Spawn) and RemoveCoin(Spawn, coins) then
        -- Successfully removed the coins from the player so lets add it to the npc
        -- Get the current amount of coin the NPC has
        local npc_coins = GetLootCoin(NPC)

        -- Add our one silver to the amount
        npc_coins = npc_coins + coins

        -- Now set the coins the NPC has to the new amount
        SetLootCoin(NPC, npc_coins)
    end
end
