runic npc... i need help

[greeno]

i cant figure this out, when i put
setani runic.gani;

i get this
Error: Expected format string,string

help me please, i know this will be helpful in a server!

[SagaTCN]

I believe the second string is params. I doubt you'll need params, so simply use: setani gani_name,; (notice the comma before the semi-colon). -Yin

[greeno]

ok thanks, is that all?

[greeno]

now i need to know what it is called when you are hit by a bomb... and arrow,


and while your at it can you tell me why it doesnt play the gani?
it doesnt freezeplayer or play the gani, im confused here...

[greeno]

heres my whole npc so far... tell me if im wrong in doing this so far...
// NPC made by Stipo, Thief of -Thieves-
if (created) {
setimg yellowspellbook.gif;
}
if (runicbought) {
toweapons Runic;
}

if (weaponfired && peltwithbush){
setani runic.gani,;
freezeplayer 1;
playerhearts++;
}
if (weaponfired && peltwithvase){
setani runic.gani,;
freezeplayer 1;
playerhearts++;
}
if (weaponfired && peltwithstone){
setani runic.gani,;
freezeplayer 1;
playerhearts++;
}
if (weaponfired && peltwithsign){
setani runic.gani,;
freezeplayer 1;

}
if (weaponfired && peltwithnpc){
setani runic.gani,;
freezeplayer 1;
playerhearts++;
}
if (weaponfired && peltwithblackstone){
setani runic.gani,;

setani runic.gani,;

}

Look at the commands.rtf file it explains it quite easily.
setani ganiname,direction;

Do not use .gani at the end of the name, for single direction gani's use
setani ganiname,;
Gani's are one of the simplest things to set up

[Python523]

WAY too much stuff in it, you could make it into 1 simple command:
replaceani hurt,runic;

[greeno]

r u sure, i mean im getting somewhere right now...

[greeno]

it doesnt work!!

use || which means 'or' instead of all those commands!!!!!!!!

The problem is that you have to fire the weapon at the EXACT second you get hit. Just do something like this:

replaceani hurt,runic;

He's Right, why don't you do something like
if (playerchats && strequals(#c,Buy Runic)) {set boughtrunic;}
if (boughtrunic) {replaceani hurt,runic;}
that should work fine

[greeno]

its starting to work, but when it plays the gani, it has like (_)b3r lag!! and it flashes like your being hurt.. how do u disable flashing and moving when being hurt?

[btedji]

is that allowed on non-p2p??

[dragoonvenganc]

yes only p2p can use replace gani..
