[Lua][Noob Friendly] How to make Teleporter NPC w/ diff menu's

[Asbonia]

Hey I'm Asbonia from Executer WoW Developing Staff.
I'm here to show you guys how to make a Teleporter NPC w/ different menu's for Alliance and Horde.

First lets start off with NPC id and the first function
(Color Red = Must be changed)

local npcid = NPC-ID

function TeleNPC_OnGossipTalk(unit, event, player)

Now we got the NPC id in place and the first function.
Now we will find the race ID's to Alliance..

local race=player:GetPlayerRace()
if race==1 or race==3 or race==4 or race==7 or race==11 then

Now we have found the race ids: 1, 3, 4, 7 and 11. Thats the Alliance's ones.

Now lets make the alliance first menu:

unit:GossipCreateMenu(3544, player, 0)
unit:GossipMenuAddItem(2, "Menu Name", Menu ID, 0)
unit:GossipSendMenu(player)

the "Menu Name" you can switch to the name you want the menu to be named.
Then "Menu ID" is important! Do not set the same ID twice!

Now lets create a menu for the Horde:

else

unit:GossipCreateMenu(3544, player, 0)
unit:GossipMenuAddItem(2, "Menu Name", MenuID, 0)
unit:GossipSendMenu(player)
end
end

Change the same things you changed upside this.

Now lets fix the sub-menues for Ally and Horde Menu.. (Only use the different menuid)

function TeleNPC_OnGossipSelect(unit, event, player, id, intid, code)
if(intid == MenuID for ALLY) then
unit:GossipCreateMenu(3543, player, 0)
unit:GossipMenuAddItem(1, "Stormwind", SubMenuID, 0)
unit:GossipSendMenu(player)
end

Now you put in the Menu id in: if(intid == AllyMenuID) then

And then you change the Sub Menu ID (This is the important ID!) This ID will be used when we add the teleports.

Now a horde SuB Menu:

if(intid == HordeMenuID) then
unit:GossipCreateMenu(3543, player, 0)
unit:GossipMenuAddItem(1, "Orgrimmar", SubMenuID, 0)
unit:GossipSendMenu(player)
end

The sub menu id's for Ally and Horde can't be the same! Then the hole script ****s up

Now to the teleports

if(intid == StormwindMenuID) then
player:Teleport(0, -8913.230469, 554.632996, 93.794830)
unit:GossipComplete(player)
end

if(intid == OrgrimmarMenuID) then
player:Teleport(1, 1505.377319, -4414.602539, 20.598469)
unit:GossipComplete(player)
end

Now we finish up with registration the functions:

RegisterUnitGossipEvent(npcid, 1, "TeleNPC_OnGossipTalk")
RegisterUnitGossipEvent(npcid, 2, "TeleNPC_OnGossipSelect")

[bfwlegend]

First you need to make a lua file and put

local npcid = NPC-ID

function TeleNPC_OnGossipTalk(unit, event, player)

in it like it says also look at other peoples teleporters and lua scripts to learn how to script lua that what i did to make my teleporter

Edit: also get Notepad++ it will help you ALOT

[ramble]

Sorry for bringing up an old thread (its only a month ) but I have been looking for a guide like this for a long time.

So what do you do after you have your code all set up? Lots of people dont understand how Lua works.

A piece of advice:
Identify what type of core this is meant to be for / tested on.
