Create an NPC inside an instance

[daikatana_]

Hi,

Is there any way I can create an NPC inside an instance that would trigger OnTouch? Or just trigger some script after stepping on certain coordinates inside an instance without an NPC?

Thanks.

To explain that a bit further.... After the character touches certain coordinates, I want to display a message and then a mob will attack the character.

prontera,173,200,4	script	Blah	-1,5,5,{
	end;
	
OnTouch:
	if(!instance_id()) end;
	npctalk "This is a message!";
	monster "place",60,100,"Poring",1002,1,"NPCNAME::OnLabel";
	disablenpc instance_npcname(strnpcinfo(0));
}

This is the best way to figure out commands.

Sorta but it would be dumb to do so... In order to do it without an npc at those coordinates, you would need to loop and constantly track your players' positions until they are at that point then run the rest of the script.

The better way of doing that would be to create a hidden npc at the coordinates you want to trigger OnTouch. They should still work within an instance. Using -1 for an npc's sprite will make it hidden from the client.

Thanks. But how do I create that NPC just for the current instance? Map name won't accept variables.
