I'll try to do that, but as you knoe I'm a noob so maybe I can't. Some time ago I made a
half-done plugin that let you to spawn spiders, creepers and other monsters so maybe I can do it. I'll try to make it like bukkit essentials spawnmob.
RE: spawnmob - tonibm19 - 07-12-2013
What I did wrong?
function HandleSpawnMobCommand ( Player, Split, World, OtherPlayer )
if Split[2] == nil then
Player:SendMessage( "Usage: /spawnmob <mobtype> <player>" )
return true
end
if Split[2] == creeper and Split[3] == nil then
Player:GetWorld():SpawnMob( Player:GetPosX(), Player:GetPosY(), Player:GetPosZ(), 50 )
Player:SendMessage( "Creeper spawned!" )
return true
end
if Split[2] == creeper and Split[3] == OtherPlayer then
OtherPlayer:GetWorld():SpawnMob( OtherPlayer:GetPosX(), OtherPlayer:GetPosY(), OtherPlayer:GetPosZ(), 50 )
Player:SendMessage( "Creeper spawned!" )
return true
end
end
It gives me errors:[20:01:28] LUA: Plugins/SpawnMob/main.lua:12: attempt to call method 'SendMessage' (a nil value)
[20:01:28] LUA error in cPlugin_NewLua::HandleCommand. Stack size: 3
and

I think becouse OtherPlayer and creeper both are a nil value.

Are you sure you have the arguments alright? The command handler callbacks take only two arguments, the first one is the split command, the second one is the cPlayer. Your function has more args and mixed up.
Secondly, to compare strings, you need to put them in quotes properly:
if (Split[2] == "creeper")
RE: spawnmob - NiLSPACE - 07-12-2013
I don't see anywhere what OtherPlayer is. Its just a nil value I think. I usely use something like this: I quickly created it so there could be some mistakes in it.
function ReturnMobIDFromString(Mob)
if Mob == nil then
return;
end
Mob = string.upper(Mob)
elseif Mob == "CREEPER" then
return 50
elseif Mob == "SKELETON" then
return 52
elseif Mob == "SPIDER" then
return 52
elseif Mob == "GIANT" then
return 53
elseif Mob == "ZOMBIE" then
return 52
-- ETC.
end
end
Mob = ReturnMobIDFromString(Split[2])
if Mob == nil then
Player:SendMessage("Mob not found")
return true
end
if Split[3] ~= nil then
cRoot:Get():ForEachPlayer(
function(OtherPlayer)
if OtherPlayer:GetName() == Split[3] then
OtherPlayer:GetWorld():SpawnMob(Player:GetPosX(), Player:GetPosY(), Player:GetPosZ(), Mob)
end)
return true
end
Player:GetWorld():SpawnMob(Player:GetPosX(), Player:GetPosY(), Player:GetPosZ(), Mob)
RE: spawnmob - xoft - 07-12-2013
I prefer to call the number "type", rather than "id". ID means unique, two spiders have different IDs
So why not call the function StringToMobType(). If you write it in C/C++, you can also make it built in into MCS as an API (see StringToDamageType and DamageTypeToString functions in BlockID.cpp for inspiration)Instead of doing a ForEachPlayer(), you can also do DoWithPlayer() that calls the callback only once. But then, if you have multiple players of the same name (perfectly legal in MCS), only the first one would match.

Patch:
StringToMobType.patch (Size: 6.44 KB / Downloads: 350)
I didn't commit it becouse I'm not sure if I had to use int or something else.
