I would put something like this in the NPC's .pl file.
For killer_Id, it would change based on your database. For me, my GM is 82,289 so anything 82,290 and higher is a regular player. I'm sure there's a better way to code this, but I'm a novice.
The GM Say will also broadcast the name of who's taken over the orcs. I think the code below is in red. Could easily change it to yellow or whatever.
For faction... it couldn’t be a part of the code below. I’m not sure how to do a quest::faction to $killer... if you add quest::faction to below it won’t work because below is triggered on death, so the killer wouldn’t get the faction hit. maybe have to edit the player.pl to somehow register killing = faction.
Code:
sub EVENT_DEATH_COMPLETE
{
$entity_list -->GetClientByID($killer_id) ;
if($killer_id > 82,290) {
quest::gmsay("$entity_list->GetClientByID($killer_id)->GetName() . " has taken over the orcs in the Commonlands! ", 335, 1, 0, 250);
quest::spawn(npc_type_id, grid, guildwarset, x, y, z) # Spawn 'npc_type_id' on 'grid' with 'guildwarset' (use 0) at 'x', 'y', and 'z);
}
}
Another idea I had would to be to use the code above, edit the database to make all players KOS to the NPC faction, also change the DB value to give maximum faction on kill. Then you could add a sub EVENT_ENTER_ZONE to the player.pl that calls for quest::faction to go completely negative. This way when the player dies or zones and re-enters the zone, they would be KOS again.
This would require the player to kill the NPC to get a maximum faction hit and it would be the player who is allied to try and stop you from killing it.
The only downside I see to the above approach is what if players sit in the zone or hide after killing NPC, then all players kill NPC and are max faction? Shrug just some thoughts. Good luck and let me know if you figure out how to give faction on kill with quest::faction. I’m designing a custom PvP server as well and I just gave in and do a ground spawn on player kill for a turn in for faction.
