Settimer variables
Good Morning,
I am working on a small script to add a little flavor to a zone I have been working on for a server. So far it works with a set timer, however when I realized all the NPCs would be swinging their picks in unison I decided it may be best to implement some sort of variable. Sadly my attempts to seems to have broken the loop somehow. Would someone mind giving this a good once over and maybe point out what could be wrong?
This one works-
Code:
sub EVENT_SPAWN
{
quest::settimer("woodcut",1);
}
sub EVENT_TIMER
{
if ($timer eq "mine")
{
# Random Animations: 2h slash and 1h slash
my $anivar1=quest::ChooseRandom(3,5);
quest::doanim($anivar1);
quest::settimer("woodcut",3);
}
}
sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail/)
{
quest::emote("appears to be dripping in sweat as they chip away at large chunks of ore and crystal");
quest::say("I don't mean to be rude but go away. There is enough work to do here without some outsider wasting our precious daylight.");
}
}
I tried with just a simple quest::ChooseRandom but it didnt work, but looked like-
Code:
sub EVENT_SPAWN
{
quest::settimer("woodcut",1);
}
sub EVENT_TIMER
{
if ($timer eq "mine")
{
# Random Animations: 2h slash and 1h slash
my $anivar1=quest::ChooseRandom(3,5);
quest::doanim($anivar1);
# Random Timer value between 1 and 5 seconds
my $randomnum=quest::ChooseRandom(1,2,3,4,5);
quest::settimer("woodcut",$randomnum);
}
}
sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail/)
{
quest::emote("appears to be dripping in sweat as they chip away at large chunks of ore and crystal");
quest::say("I don't mean to be rude but go away. There is enough work to do here without some outsider wasting our precious daylight.");
}
}
I also tried to download and use the RandomRange plugin I saw used in another script, however I either didnt use it properly or the syntax is wrong. In any case it is here-
Code:
sub EVENT_SPAWN
{
quest::settimer("woodcut",1);
}
sub EVENT_TIMER
{
if ($timer eq "mine")
{
# Random Animations: 2h slash and 1h slash
my $anivar1=quest::ChooseRandom(3,5);
quest::doanim($anivar1);
# Random Timer value between 1 and 5 seconds
my $randomnum=plugin::RandomRange(1,5);
quest::settimer("woodcut",$randomnum);
}
}
sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail/)
{
quest::emote("appears to be dripping in sweat as they chip away at large chunks of ore and crystal");
quest::say("I don't mean to be rude but go away. There is enough work to do here without some outsider wasting our precious daylight.");
}
}
*Note* The plugin is saved as "RandomRange" in my plugins folder, in case someone were to ask.
I appreciate the help folks =) |
