Hey does anyone have an example of a mob script...

[joligario]

I'm pretty sure the $client is not passed with the HP event. Maybe you could use the mob's target?

[nenelan]

Try this:

            $targ = $npc->GetHateTop();
            $targid = $targ->GetID();
            $npc->CastSpell(21439, $targid);

Also, shoot me an email if you need mob scripts done. I got free time lately.

Here is one way to do it:

sub EVENT_SPAWN {
	quest::setnexthpevent(98);
}

sub EVENT_HP {
	if($hpevent <= 98)
	{
		quest::shout("Roar Mother *******!!");
		my $NPCTarget = $npc->GetTarget(); # Get the NPC's Target
		# Make sure they have a target before getting the ID, or the zone could crash
		if ($NPCTarget)
		{
			my $TargetID = $NPCTarget->GetID();
			$npc->CastSpell(21439, $TargetID);
		}
	}

}

I always just use this simple plugin I made a while back for casting on the NPC's target:

#Usage: plugin::CastOnTarget(spellid);
# This can be used anywhere, but is best used from events
# that don't export a $client value such as EVENT_TIMER.
# This simply tries to get the NPCs target and then casts
# the spell on them if it has a target

sub CastOnTarget {

	my $npc = plugin::val('$npc');
	my $CastSpellID = $_[0];	#Use the Spell ID Supplied to the Function - "$_[0]" means to use the first argument given
	my $Cur_Target = $npc->GetTarget();	#Get the current Target for this NPC
	if ($Cur_Target && ($Cur_Target->IsNPC() || $Cur_Target->IsClient())) {	#Only cast if the NPC actually has a Target
		my $My_Target = $Cur_Target->GetID();	#Get the Entity ID of the Target
		$npc->CastSpell($CastSpellID, $My_Target, 11);	#Cast the requested Spell ID on the NPC's Target
		# Note: Uses slot 11 argument to prevent fizzling from ever happening
	}
}

Funny thing is, I thought about doing the same thing. I'll commit this later.

And by the way Trevius, whenever you have time I'd like to IRC you about the armorsets. Got some things made you might appreciate.

Thanks Ill try it out


One question, what about PB AOEs?

Do i have to make em player targeted for em to work?

Hey am I missing something? Smaug is only casting the one type of spell 21439 at both events.

Instead of 21440.

If i change it to 21440 on top and 21439 he will only cast 21440.

#Smaug

sub EVENT_SPAWN {
	quest::setnexthpevent(98);
}

sub EVENT_HP {

	if($hpevent <= 98)
	{
	quest::shout("Roar Mother !!");
	plugin::CastOnTarget(21439);
	quest::setnexthpevent(95);
	}
	
	if($hpevent <= 95)
	{
	quest::shout("Roar Mother !!");
	plugin::CastOnTarget(21440);
	}
	
}

sub EVENT_AGGRO {

}
