Seilaen's Plight

Awesome.


And apologies I did not mean for it to sound competitive, I just didn;t feel it was *complete enough* to post on peq, and things needed to be solved before that step.

Ahhh I understand.

Yep, you're almost done, just need those few details worked out.

[fault]

How would I get the corrupted to spawn in a ring around Deyid? I see this, quest::spawn2(npc_type,grid,guildwarset,x,y,z,head ing); So I would have to #zone to various spots around deyid write down the /loc and do it that way?

I also don;t really see how signal is done (the recieving NPC) here is what i have


Deyid:

quest::signalwith(204047,204047_1, 20);

Seilaen:

sub_SIGNAL {
$signal,204047_1;
quest::shout("Oh thank you! Thank you! I don't feel the trees watching me anymore! And.. Let me try Mother's Locket again, I think it might work..");
quest::depop();
 }

Basically, yes. You can also use #goto x y z which does the exact same thing as #zone zonename x y z.

I was going to try to create this quest myself (the dialogues are easy enough), so I could learn how to make everything interact properly, but there weren't really any resources spelling out how many treants there were, where they are placed, how fast they move, how tough they are, etc.

Deyid:

quest::signalwith(204047,204047_1, 20);

Seilaen:

sub_SIGNAL {
$signal,204047_1;
quest::shout("Oh thank you! Thank you! I don't feel the trees watching me anymore! And.. Let me try Mother's Locket again, I think it might work..");
quest::depop();
 }

This is what it should look like for Deyid to signal to Seilaen that's he/she/it's been killed, plus the resulting dialogue:

#Deyid_the_Twisted.pl

# Name: #Deyid_the_Twisted
# ID: 204051
# Zone: ponightmare

sub EVENT_DEATH {
	quest::signalwith(204047, 5, 1);	# Send signal # 5 to Seilaen 1 second after death
}

Seilaen.pl

# Name: Sailaen
# ID: 204047
# Zone: ponightmare

sub EVENT_SIGNAL {
	if ($signal == 5) {
		quest::shout("Oh thank you! Thank you! I don't feel the trees watching me anymore! And.. Let me try Mother's Locket again, I think it might work..");
		quest::depop();
	}
}

Oh, So I can;t use what I wanted? Darn I am a stickler for clean precise code ( npcid+value for example)


Reading up on the quest it appears as if he summons between 6 and 12. 6 for sure, but reports also say 1 dozen(12)

working on geting the final done as I type this (Atleast I hope)

[fault]

here is what I have for deyid, I am stil uncertain as to the `grid` field in the spawn2, is that the walk grid? or what?

PHP Code:

sub EVENT_SPAWN {
quest::setnexthpevent(61);
}

#During the fight he summons a ring of Corrupt Treants ID 204068 in PEQ
# By the time you kill deyid they are upon you and attacking you.
#when Deyid Dies you have succeeded, you are not required to kill the spawns.
sub EVENT_HP {

    if ($hpevent == 61) {
    quest::spawn2(Corrupt_Treant,grid,0,922,1028,280);
    quest::spawn2(Corrupt_Treant,grid,0,947,1117,200);
    quest::spawn2(Corrupt_Treant,grid,0,1031,1164,276);
    quest::spawn2(Corrupt_Treant,grid,0,1121,1154,277);
    quest::spawn2(Corrupt_Treant,grid,0,1206,1067,280);
    quest::spawn2(Corrupt_Treant,grid,0,1237,887,272);
    }  


  sub EVENT_DEATH {
    quest::emote("An eerie silence settles onto the forest as Deyid the Twisted slumps over, defeated");
    quest::signalwith(204047, 5, 1);    # Send signal # 5 to Seilaen 1 second after death
} 


I got myself a test base up (server) was going to be testing it, but first I must search the forums here and figure out why When I hail npcs like th eosulbinders they ignore me

Yep, grid is their walking path. In this case none is needed, so the value is 0.

The script is perfect, that's exactly how I would write it. Unless there is more you want to add to it, I'll get it in today.
