Possible Kill counter?

ok only part of that I wouldn't know how to do is make the global variable

[Andrew80k]

Have you tried using KLS's tool for creating tasks via the task system? It does help quite a bit. It's in the SVN if you are interested in using it.

As for global variables, look in the wiki. They are explained fairly well. Keep in mind that any NPC that you use for global variables has to have that enabled on them in the database. You might not need that for this particular quest, but you might later. Also you can look in a number of other quests for examples of using globals. Just grep(or search if Windoze) out qglobal from your quests directory. That'll bring up some quests with that used.

OK when I make this quest, what iwll be the command to increase the global value? In one quest I am using I have

quest::setglobal("buffbot", $buffbot+$itemcount{1440}, 0, "Y9");

to increase the global for it, but I do not know how to adjust that to be for when the mob dies increase it.

soemthing like this:

sub EVENT_DEATH

{

	quest::setglobal("buffbot", $buffbot+1, 0, "Y9");
}

this should increment the variable by 1 when mob dies
hopefuly for player who kills it

[Randymarsh9]

Alright, sounds good. I should change the variable name though, right?

and Since no trade is disabled on my server, I can see someone just chain hailing the mob for the reward for alts, so is there a check I can do so he doesn't respond if they have done the quest already?

[ChaosSlayer]

I am not sure what you referign to.

If reward is given after 10 mobs have been killed - then "just hailing" the npc won't do you any good
