quest::targlobal problem

Hi all trying to get this funtion to work, here is the code i am using

Code:

sub EVENT_ITEM

{

checkitem ( )

}



sub CheckItem

{

 if($itemcount{18700} &amp;&amp; $itemcount{18700} == 1) #Finsihed Class Combined Bag

{

quest::targlobal("NecroCMP","2","D5",$mobid,$charid,$zoneln);

quest::emote("Opens the bag and peers inside");

quest::say("Hmm looks like everthing is here, well i suppose your good enough to study the art of necromancy. Just tell me when you are [Ready] and I shall being your lessons");

}

}

...

NOTE: i left alot out of the quest its several hundred lines long so i am only posting the part that doesn't work.

Code:

if($NecroCMP == "2")

{

quest::say("So Be it.");

quest::delglobal("NecroCMP");

#&lt;events happen here>

}

else

{

quest::say("How dare you ask to begin studying with me before you have completed my quest.");

}

}

...

My problem is this, when i hand in the item i get the text like i have finished but then i say "ready" and it goes to the else action, i get an error in zone.exe

Code:

error inserting necroCMP:DBcore::RunQuery: No Result

this i beleive is telling me its having a problem posting the value of "2" into the database, however i don't understand why. if you have any ideas on a fix for this, that would be great thanks in advanced.

I will add that, when we open DB, variable is created and value 2 is inserted.

*cry*

yak* didn't know this. bad error =(

$zoneln?

don't you want the zone id number and not the long name here?

changed "zoneln" by "zoneid", now in DB, it return the zone ID.
But charid is at 0.

Yes i did mean the id, however i don't beleive it works yet =( but thanks for pointing that out, i am sure it would have been an issue later on.

All rows in tables are setup correctly, but variables still not working ... *cry*

On the DB...

Is npcid correct? You said that charid=0... that's wrong, but shouldn't interfere (its still a problem)

and I have to ask... in npc_types, is qglobal=1 for the npc to receive the targlobal variable? and remember the server has to be restarted if you change qglobal (or anything else in npc_type) for it to work.

Hmm.. we will try this today, i didn't realize the npc_types table was defaulted to 0 for qglobal, Thanks for the info S2k=) going to go try it =).

Thanks Scorp for your help, it work :)
We changed $userid by $charid and changed qglobal to 1 (*doh*).
For informations, error XXX still show on zone box, but it work fine (Using 5.7DR3 15.05.04).
