Simple LUA Script Help

[Wolfly]

I have this rather simple LUA script, it's my first as well so I used guides for this. So I can't really understand what's wrong, clicking on the object doesn't do anything.

function LesserWindStone_onUse(pUnit, Event)
local Choice=math.random(1, 4)
if Choice==1 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15211, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
elseif Choice==2 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15307, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
elseif Choice==3 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15209, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
elseif Choice==4 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15212, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
end

RegisterGameObjectEvent (180456, 2, "LesserWindStone_onUse")

Any help would be very appreciated and a nice 2x+Rep

Try this...

function LesserWindStone_onUse(pUnit, Event)
local Choice=math.random(1, 4)
if Choice==1 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15211, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
if Choice==2 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15307, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
if Choice==3 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15209, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
if Choice==4 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15212, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
end

RegisterGameObjectEvent (180456, 2, "LesserWindStone_onUse")

Afraid it still didn't work.
My script is in ArcEmu\Scripts folder as well so I doubt I placed it wrong.

Ok try this LOL if it doesnt work then i dont know i guess youll have to wait for a more experienced scripter


function LesserWindStone_onUse(pUnit, Event)
local Choice=math.random(1, 4)
if Choice==1 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15211, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
if Choice==2 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15307, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
if Choice==3 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15209, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
if Choice==4 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15212, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
end

Oh I got it fixed. It was pretty simple really, I forgot to add "end" to close the if statements. +2Rep still for trying

[kreegoth]

CAn ya toss up the fixed one? i dont wanan copy it i just wanna See what the problem was

[Wolfly]

Tbh I was a bit too optimistic..seems like the syntax is correct.

function LesserWindStone_onUse(pUnit, Event)
local Choice=math.random(1, 4)
if Choice==1 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15211, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
elseif Choice==2 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15307, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
elseif Choice==3 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15209, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
elseif Choice==4 then
pUnit:SpawnCreature(15212, -7964.16, 1826.29, 2.28, 2.84, 14, 240000)
end
end

I get this error message in arcemu-world.exe tho:
scripts\LesserWindStone.lua:4: attempt to call method ´SpawnCreature´
<a nil value>

The :4: is either 6, 8, 10 or 4. Obviously it's the faulty line. And apparently the if adding was wrong, back where I started.

Might be easier to do the same thing but using a Gossipmenu like with choices 1 thru 4 .. but it wouldnt be random then i guess...
