SOLVED - dmg script help

[Drakkan]

I need help with script, which will dmg each character every 5sec, unless wearing specific chest armor(lets call it Coatl). Somebody help pls ?

the easiest way to hurt the party is with damageTile , but that wouldn't allow individual champions with the armor to avoid the damage. You can script loss of health and hurt sounds for individuals, but that's a little tricky

well i think it would be something like (do not know commands, so just brief idea how it might probably work)
for every champion

if champion1 slot 2 is equiped Coat then
do nothing
else dmgpchampion1

this make for everychampion to be repeated until x-second clock is disabled.

what you think ?

The basic commands you will want are:

Champion:damage(amount, type)
Deals damage to the champion. Type must be “physical”, “fire”, “shock”, “poison” or “cold”.

Champion:playDamageSound()
Plays the damage sound which is determined by champion’s race and gender.

I haven't tested these, so I'm unsure if dealing damage in this way plays the damage sound anyway.


Since there are 4 champions you'll want to cycle through each and check if they are a) Enabled and b) Alive... if so, then check for the presence of the "Coat" in the Torso location... if it's missing deal damage.

Code: Select all

for i=1,4 do
    if party:getChampion(i):getEnabled() and party:getChampion(i):isAlive() then
      if party:getChampion(i):getItem(2).name == "Coat" then
        -- hudPrint("Coat found")
      else
        party:getChampion(i):damage(50, "fire") 
        party:getChampion(i):playDamageSound() 
      end
    end
end

This is theoretical code as I haven't had chance to check it.

Oops... forgot the case where the champion is wearing nothing on his Torso.

try:

Code: Select all

for i=1,4 do
  if party:getChampion(i):getEnabled() and party:getChampion(i):isAlive() then
    if party:getChampion(i):getItem(2) ~= nil and party:getChampion(i):getItem(2).name == "Coat" then
      -- hudPrint("Coat found")
    else
      party:getChampion(i):damage(50, "fire")
      party:getChampion(i):playDamageSound()
    end
  end
end
