Request For Phasing Command

[09SMalone]

Hello. I am quite new to Lua and have been trying to teach myself how to make custom commands and such. I have been on Mangos, but recently I have switched to test Arc Emu on my Server. I don't usually ask for anything from the site, and before you start asking "Hey, what has she contributed?" The answer is that I have submitted quite a few things to mmowned, but I guess they don't meet standards. Sigh. Anyway I was wondering if anyone had a LUA script or method of creating a phase command for objects and npcs, not unlike that of Echeloned Wow. I hope that someone may be able to help me at least look in the right direction. Thank you for your patience and time.

Are you asking for a command to set the phase of an NPC and Object? If so, they're already built into the core, .npc phase x and .go phase x

No, I'm asking for a way to make sure players are in a phase before spawning.

I get the feeling that the commands I'm trying are outdated, but I also feel I'm onto something. Now your going to see this code and laugh, but I just wanted to show I was putting some effort in on my end. If you could revise this, I'd appreciate it.

Code:

-- A script to create an object
local Gobj = "#Gob add"
function Gobject(event, plr, message, type, language)
if (message == Gobj) then
if(Unit:IsInPhase(2) == true) then
pUnit:SpawnGameObject(VALUE)
return true
end
else
Player:SendBroadcastMessage("You are not in the correct phase. Type .char phase 2 to be able to spawn objects")
return true
end
end
RegisterServerHook(16, "Gobject")

I see what you are getting at; I'm not sure why that hasn't been implemented yet.
If you're using LuaHypArc, have you tried suggesting it to one of it's developers?

[Dynashock]

It does exist... GetPhase()/IsInPhase().
No, what your problem is you're trying to use a variable that doesn't exist in its current context. pUnit/Unit simple doesn't exist in that function, use plr instead.

No I haven't really suggested anything lol. I run an all GM server (yes hate me if you will) but I wanted to find a way to make a phasing script. Technically, I would really like to do this for Mangos, but I have no idea how much of the scripting works for that. I have compiled my own core for Mangos, but I simply have no idea how to go about creating C++ scripts for it. I have taken two C++ classes in college, but I'm still in the dark about implementing it in gaming. I thank you Dynashock for helping me with that. I will go test that. And I am using LuaHypArc. But currently we are back to our old server core and we will probably stay that way. But I will test your suggestion. Also if you have any suggestions as to how I could create a command that would do something like the above for Mangos, I'm eager to learn.

I know this is an Old Topic, But I'm having the same problem, I am trying to create something similiar to Echeloned WoW, With the Phase System I mean, I still haven't figured it out, I am also using a Arc Emu Based and Set Server aswell, If someone could find any suggestions Ill be happy to post what I know to MMOwned.

/bump
I also would love to create some phasing commands, like Echeloned's. I know that I can possibly do this by editing 'Chat.cpp' and 'Chat.h' located in #\:Core\src\arcemu-world\Chat.cpp, Chat.h.
Seems that Chat.h holds the actual commands? Can someone confirm this incase I'm headed in the wrong direction please?

I have already created my own command table, very simply and now I need to change the subcommands to phasing ones such as, .phase join, .phase exit, .phase kick, .phase ban, .phase play (song), .phase unban, .phase delete, .phase say, .phase togglecheats, .phase toggleflight, .phase addmember, .phase promote, .phase togglespells.

Possibly, the 'Unit:RemoveFromWorld(); -- Removes Unit From World' command would be used for .phase exit or .phase kick or .phase ban? Or something similiar.

Thanks,
