class and level specific quest.. not working at all

[joligario]

Oh, he is probably picking up the "teach" in his own text. Here is a fix:

sub EVENT_SAY
{
  if ($text = ~/hail/i) 
  { 
    if (($ulevel >= 4) && ($ulevel <= 7) && ($class eq "Wizard")) 
    {
    quest::say ("Ah, $name, you have returned, and growing stronger. I can [teach] you more, but this time for a price.");
    }
    
    else 
    {
     quest::say ("I have nothing to teach you at this time.");
    }
  }
  
  elsif ($text = ~/teach/i) 
  {
    if (($ulevel >= 4) && ($ulevel <= 7) && ($class eq "Wizard"))
    {
    quest::say ("I knew you would be interested! Simply return to me with an Untranslated Initiate's Tome from a monster in the Feerrott and 15 gold. Then you shall feel the embrace of knowledge.");
    }
    
    else 
    {
    quest::say ("I have nothing to teach you at this time.");
    }
  }
}

Going to work, so I can look at rest later if noone else replies by the time I get back.

Elsif definitely stopped him from firing off both strings of text, but now when you tell him "teach" he simply says the first if repeatedly.


I changed sub EVENT_ITEM to:

sub EVENT_ITEM
{
  if($class eq "Wizard")
  {
    if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 1079 => 1))
    {
    	if ($gold == 15) 
    {
      		quest::exp(15);
      		quest::summonitem(15036);
      		quest::summonitem(15377);
      		quest::summonitem(15378);
      		quest::summonitem(15230);
     	 	quest::summonitem(15376);
    }
    
    else 
    {
      quest::say("I have no use for this item!");
      plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
    }
    
  	else 
  	{
    quest::say("You are no Wizard, And I know a Wizard when I see one!");
    plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
    }
}

Yet, he still remains to be the hungry little item eater I've came to know him as.

from my experience if quest plugin check involves both cash and items- you must be EXTRA specific with it.

for once i belvie they have to be inside same If statement, and what si important if you give him 15 gold and 1 copper - he will just eat the items cuase the cash specified did not match

overall- AVOID using cash give in at all, cuase plugin return does not work for wrong cash given

also you may want to check for items BEFORE you check if he is wizard, cuase otherwise he will eat the items first, determine that you nto wizard and wihout plugin return- you won't get anything back

[ChaosSlayer]

oh yeah i think you have a missing parentesis. like A LOT of them

sub EVENT_ITEM
{  - OPENED  1 
  if($class eq "Wizard")
  {  - OPENED 2 
    if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 1079 => 1))
    { - OPENED 3 
    	if ($gold == 15) 
              { - OPENED 4
      		quest::exp(15);
      		quest::summonitem(15036);
      		quest::summonitem(15377);
      		quest::summonitem(15378);
      		quest::summonitem(15230);
     	 	quest::summonitem(15376);
                } - CLOSED 4
    
    else 
    {  OPENED 5
      quest::say("I have no use for this item!");
      plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
    }  CLOSED 5
    
  	else 
  	{  OPENED 6
    quest::say("You are no Wizard, And I know a Wizard when I see one!");
    plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
             }  CLOSED 6
} CLOSED ????

There seems to be something wrong with the way we are pasting the code in to your .pl file. You are getting extra spaces (possibly CRs). Try this text for the say event and after you paste it in, try to make it look like it does on the board.

sub EVENT_SAY {
  if ($text=~/hail/i) { 
    if (($ulevel >= 4) && ($ulevel <= 7) && ($class eq "Wizard")) {
      quest::say ("Ah, $name, you have returned, and growing stronger. I can [teach] you more, but this time for a price.");
    }
    else {
      quest::say ("I have nothing to teach you at this time.");
    }
  }
  elsif ($text=~/teach/i) {
    if (($ulevel >= 4) && ($ulevel <= 7) && ($class eq "Wizard")) {
      quest::say ("I knew you would be interested! Simply return to me with an Untranslated Initiate's Tome from a monster in the Feerrott and 15 gold. Then you shall feel the embrace of knowledge.");
    }
    else {
      quest::say ("I have nothing to teach you at this time.");
    }
  }
}

Ok, so you can try this. You might just consider the 15 gold as a donation if they are not wizard or they turn in the wrong item... That's what they get for trying to buck the system!!

sub EVENT_ITEM {
  if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 1079 => 1) && ($gold==15)) {
    if($class eq "Wizard") {
      quest::exp(15);
      quest::summonitem(15036);
      quest::summonitem(15377);
      quest::summonitem(15378);
      quest::summonitem(15230);
      quest::summonitem(15376);
    }
    else {
      quest::say("You are no Wizard, and I know a Wizard when I see one!");
      quest::summonitem(1079);
    }
  }
  else {
    quest::say("I have no use for this, $name.");
    plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
  }
}

The text part is working great now .
