[Guide] Lua Scripting Guide is here [Updating]

for condor:

you make 2 seperate functions with the same name and you could also shorten it, you should make it look like this:

function Guard_Entercombat (pUnit, Event)
    pUnit:SendChatMessage (12, 0, "You fool ! Leave this place imidiatly !")
end
RegisterUnitEvent(858742,1, "Guard_Entercombat")
RegisterUnitEvent(858743,1, "Guard_Entercombat")
 
function Guard_Enterrange (pUnit, Event)
    pUnit:SendChatMessage (11, 0, "Hi there.")
end
RegisterUnitEvent(858742, 7,"Guard_Enterrange")
RegisterUnitEvent(858743, 7,"Guard_Enterrange")

And the reason why it wouldnt say anything was you have to use 11 for monster_say and 12 for monester_yell. And for 10 for enter combat, that doesnt work for words, use 7 for on gossip.

[Condor]

still doesnt work :s

[Performer]

Erm What do i do if i dont have a scripts folder? I have a scripts_bin

[umandez]

you just add a folder called scripts

[Ebon]

you just add a folder called scripts

That doesn't seem to work either bro :P.

[umandez]

ok what core are u useing these .lua script will only work with Ascent cores above Rev 2400 so make sure u have that

[Illidan1]

Yeah, Ebon, What Revision and Repack you using?

[umandez]

+ also u need to make sure u have got the .lua engine enabled there is a guide around on the forums

why is this: function ChkaliostheCorrupted_Shadowfury (pUnit, Event)
pUnit:CastSpell (30414)
end
RegisterUnitEvent (1000000, 1, "ChkaliostheCorrupted_Shadowfury")

not working? and also function ChkaliostheCorrupted_SeedofCorruption (pUnit, Event)
pUnit:CastSpell (27243)
end
RegisterUnitEvent (1000000, 10, "ChkaliostheCorrupted_SeedofCorruption") is not working.. any idea why?

[Pragma]

to Arugos:
Well it should work except for the second one, because where you put 10 it means when the person enters the range at which tpoint ascent loads the spawned NPC it doesnt mean he casts it when the player comes in 10 yards

[Arugos]

kk ty but do you know how to make the npc cast the spell from script 1 , more than 1 time? like every 15 seconds and also at a random target ?

[Pragma]

well an easier way to do that is go inside your database and go into aiagents and do it that way, just look at the column names and itll come to ya, when you get to spell types and stuff i cant help ya cause i havent memorized them

[Arugos]

Oh and also with that script my mob is casting the spell on himself , what if i want a damaging spell ?

[Pragma]

ive had that happen too, make the script look like this:

function ChkaliostheCorrupted_Shadowfury (pUnit, Event)
tarGet = pUnit:GetClosestPlayer()
pUnit:CastSpellOnTarget (30414,tarGet)
end
RegisterUnitEvent (1000000, 1, "ChkaliostheCorrupted_Shadowfury")

[Arugos]
