Help: Make an NPC channel a spell.

[Nicholax80]

I know, I suck at Lua, rofl. This worked. They're all channeling this spell on me. Now what do we do?


P.S. Thank you for your patience and help. If I could rep you more, I would.

Ok, so we know everything works fine. That means we just need to fix the target.

Try this script:

local target = nil -- Do not touch this
local npcid_channeler = 91011 -- This is the id of the person who will be channeling
local npcid_target = 50 -- Change this to the id of the person you want to channel onto

function NPCCHANNEL(pUnit, Event)
    pUnit:RegisterEvent("Check_For_Target_zzz", 2500, 0)
end

function Check_For_Target_zzz(pUnit)
    if target ~= nil then
    pUnit:ChannelSpell(47855, target)
    pUnit:RemoveEvents()
    end
end

RegisterUnitEvent(npcid_channeler, 18, "NPCCHANNEL")

function target_on_load(pUnit, Event)
    target = pUnit
end

RegisterUnitEvent(npcid_target, 18, "target_on_load")

Change the 50 to the npcid of the person being channeled at. That should work.

AMG, it works. Thank you so very much lol.

Final Outcome:


You know... I could use someone with your skills for my server... Hehe

Glad to see it works.

The reason it was working before is because, I assume, the creature was trying to channel the spell before it had properly spawned. This is why most people tend to register another event on spawn to happen in a second or two, so that it has a chance to load properly.

Oh I see. Sounds similar to my NPCs not staying on custom objects, because they load quicker than the object itself.

I love the new, .npc ongameobject 1

Lol. Interested in a Dev position? I could really use one.

I'm afraid I'm busy on a variety of projects/servers already.
