Hello, everyone! Just back from a while away from scripting. Smile

So, let's get to it: I'm having problems while trying to apply a randomizer to my NPC spawns (something to buff their stats up for rare/boss random automated spawning).

I've added my event over there:

//Events related to all pets
EventsPet=your_event

But by checking via ".set show events" the NPCs are all blank of events.

What would be some possible reasons for that? Since the event triggers on @Create, I need it to be applied before the NPC spawns, what could be some workaround if the EventsPet wouldn't cover it?

Thanks in advance!

EventsPet, EventsPlayer and so on aren't displayed by .show events command, however the triggers are still called.

Also take note that the @Create trigger doesn't follow the normal events order (Events-> Tevents -> Char/itemdef block trigger), instead is called after the @Create of the chardef block.

Oh, then it's even better than I thought. Though the script isn't working for some OTHER reason.

See if you can make any sense of this (it's the event on EventsPet):

Code:

[TYPEDEF e_NPC_Triumphus] //NPC Spawn

ON=@Create

ALLSKILLS = (100 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 80))

IF (<TAG.NPCCLASS> == 1) //Brute

    STR = (18 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    DEX = (3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    INT = (-3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    MAXHITS = STR+20

    HITS = MAXHITS

    EVENTS +e_brute

ENDIF

IF (<TAG.NPCCLASS> == 2) //Soldier

    STR = (13 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    DEX = (8 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    INT = (3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    MAXHITS = STR+15

    HITS = MAXHITS

    EVENTS +e_soldier

ENDIF

IF (<TAG.NPCCLASS> == 3) //Artillery

    STR = (3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    DEX = (23 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    INT = (3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    MAXHITS = STR+10

    HITS = MAXHITS

    EVENTS +e_artillery

    INT = (-3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    MAXHITS = STR+15

    EVENTS +e_skirmisher

ENDIF

IF (<TAG.NPCCLASS> == 5) //Lurker

    STR = (13 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    DEX = (23 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    INT = (-3 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    MAXHITS = STR+10

    HITS = MAXHITS

    EVENTS +e_lurker

ENDIF

    INT = (23 + (<TAG.LEVEL> * 8) + {1 3})

    MAXHITS = STR+5

    HITS = MAXHITS

    EVENTS +e_support

ENDIF

VAR.RAND = <EVAL {1 500}> //Random chance for rare spawn

IF (<VAR.RAND> == 1)

    NAME = "Master "+<NAME>

    STR += (<STR> * 2,5)

    STR += (<INT> * 2,5)

    Allskills = 100.0

    Allskills = (<I.Anatomy> + (<I.Anatomy> * 1))

    MAXHITS += 100

    HITS = MAXHITS

    OSKIN = COLOR

ENDIF

ENDIF

I put the TAG.LEVEL and TAG.NPCCLASS inside the monster chardef. Should I move them to the monster's @Create, then?

***Coruja*** · 05-01-2017 04:38 PM

[TYPEDEF xxxxx] is used only by items, to create events you must use [EVENTS xxxxx]

also don't forget to use eval on all numeric formulas (eg: STR = <eval 1+1>) and <xxx> brackets when reading properties (eg: HITS = <MAXHITS>)

gergecoelho · 05-02-2017 02:33 AM

Whoa those were some rookie mistakes. Corrected them and cleaned up a bit the parenthesis, but it steel doesn't seem to work. The stats aren't being applied.

Code:

[EVENTS e_NPC_Triumphus] //NPC Spawn

ON=@Create

ALLSKILLS = <EVAL 100 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 80>

IF (<TAG.NPCCLASS> == 01) //Brute

    STR = <EVAL 18 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 8 + {1 3}>

    DEX = <EVAL 3 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 8 + {1 3}>

    INT = <EVAL -3 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 8 + {1 3}>

    MAXHITS = <EVAL <STR> + 20>

    HITS = <MAXHITS>

    EVENTS +e_brute

ENDIF

1. I don't know if ALLSKILLS can be called in like that;
2. I've tried <TAG.NPCCLASS> == 01 and just 1, it's being defined on the Chardef block.

Any clues? Sad

gergecoelho · 05-05-2017 10:17 AM

*shameless bump* Still hasn't figured this one out. Sick

**darksun84** · (05-06-2017)

Is the trigger called?
Try to log something in the code.
Example:

Code:

[EVENTS e_NPC_Triumphus] //NPC Spawn

ON=@Create

serv.log Create trigger fired for <name>

ALLSKILLS = <EVAL 100 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 80>

IF (<TAG.NPCCLASS> == 01) //Brute

    serv.log  Attributes before changes for <name> with NPCClass <dtag.npcclass>: <str> <dex> <int> <maxhits>

    STR = <EVAL 18 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 8 + {1 3}>

    DEX = <EVAL 3 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 8 + {1 3}>

    INT = <EVAL -3 + <TAG.LEVEL> * 8 + {1 3}>

    MAXHITS = <EVAL <STR> + 20>

    HITS = <MAXHITS>

    EVENTS +e_brute

    serv.log  Attributes after changes for <name> with NPCClass <dtag.npcclass>: <str> <dex> <int> <maxhits>

Edit: Managed to get it to work, but I need to force the event on each creature TEVENTS=e_carnivores2, e_NPC_Triumphus, etc.

The normalized spawn based on level+npcclass is working, the Rare Spawner is still not triggering, though. I'll test further. ;O

Edit2: Random Rare spawner seems to be in order! Thanks for the help! Think I'll just apply it manually, also spares me the trouble of finding a way to make this system not trigget on shopkeepers. Smile
