Spawn2 // Itemturn in

Was trying to get an npc to assign the task (which it did) and upon turn in of 4 of the same item it would depop and spawn another mob in its place. Tried several variations and just couldn't figure this out. Where did I go wrong? The elseif part?

Code:

sub EVENT_SAY {

 

        my $help = quest::saylink("help");

        my $assist = quest::saylink("assist");



        $client->Message(7, "-");

        my $NPCName = $npc->GetCleanName();



        if (quest::istaskactive(226) || quest::istaskcompleted(226))

        {

                $client->Message(315, "$NPCName whispers to you, 'What are you waiting for? Don't make me skunk you up.");

        }

        else

        {

                if ($text =~/Hail/i)

                {

                        $client->Message(315, "$NPCName whispers to you, 'Please wait, $name! I need your [$help].");

                }



                if ($text =~/help/i)

                {

                        $client->Message(315, "$NPCName whispers to you, 'I was turned into a skunk by Xalgoz when they invaded. Since I dabbled in some magic, I know essence of shadow can reverse this particular spell. If you can [$assist] me and bring me 4 essences, I will give this shiney thing I found.");

                }



                if ($text =~/assist/i)

                {

                        $client->Message(315, "$NPCName whispers to you, 'Bring me 4 of those essences and please do hurry.");

                        quest::assigntask(226);

                }

        }



}



sub EVENT_ITEM 

{

        $x = $npc->GetX();

        $y = $npc->GetY();

        $z = $npc->GetZ();

        $h = $npc->GetHeading();

        $entid1 = quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z,$h);

  

  if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 119782=> 4))

    {

      quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z$h);

      quest::shout2("Fool you have unleashed me!");

      quest::ding ();

      quest::depop(58082);

    }

  elsif(plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, $_=> 1)) 

    {

        $client->Message(315, "$NPCName whispers to you, 'Not quite there yet, ace.");

        quest::summonitem($turnins[$i]);

                   }

   plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);



}

You are missing a comma in

Code:

quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z$h);

my God... 2 hours of fiddling and it's a comma... lol thank you !

Alright, so it was working somewhat and I am running into the following issues:

1. Spawns 2 of the mobs on turn in
2. Spawns the mob when given less than 4 items but stays up
3. Gives double message when less than 4 items turned in
4. Upon completion, it's crashing the zone - log back in and task rewards is on cursor

Am I missing some particular rule code ? (I only changed the bottom code and the top remains the same).

Code:

sub EVENT_ITEM 

{

        $x = $npc->GetX();

        $y = $npc->GetY();

        $z = $npc->GetZ();

        $h = $npc->GetHeading();

        $entid1 = quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z,$h);

  

  if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 119782=> 4))

    {

      quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z,$h);

      quest::shout2("Fool you have unleashed me!");

      quest::depop(58082);

    }

  else

    {

        $client->Message(315, "$NPCName whispers to you, 'Not quite there yet, ace.");

        plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);

    }



}

Your spawn command is outside of the if statements so any turn in is going to trigger it.

I'm confused what you mean. The spawn2 comes after

Code:

if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 119782=> 4))

    {

      quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z,$h);

So shouldn't it only trigger if the requirement is met, else it won't fire off?

Code:

sub EVENT_ITEM 

{

        $x = $npc->GetX();

        $y = $npc->GetY();

        $z = $npc->GetZ();

        $h = $npc->GetHeading();

        $entid1 = quest::spawn2(58083,0,0,$x,$y,$z,$h);

  

        if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 119782=> 4)) {...}

        else {...}



}

Def. thought that was part of the top code needed. Didn't realize it was an actual code line.. :? thank you !
