MVP announcer

[Radian]

Hi i was wondering why some normal monsters when killed this script announce it.

-	script	MVPAnnounce	-1,{
OnNPCKillEvent: 
	//if ( getmonsterinfo( killedrid,21 )&0x0020 && getgmlevel() > 0 )
	if ( getmonsterinfo( killedrid,21 )&0x0020)
		announce "[ Player ] "+strcharinfo(0)+" has slain [ "+getmonsterinfo(killedrid,0)+" ] at the map of [ "+strcharinfo(3)+" ]",0, 0x9A2EFE;
	end;
}

I was hoping that it will only announce MVP monsters. mini boss/normal mobs are not included.

Use MOB_MVPEXP instead. (Only MVPs give MVP experience, but non-MVPs also have MD_BOSS mode.)

like this right?

if (getmonsterinfo(killedrid,MOB_MVPEXP))

thank Euphy, its working now..

How can i modify this script and only announce specific maps of the MVP's?

if( strcharinfo(3) == "mapname" && getmonsterinfo( killedrid,MOB_MVPEXP ) )

edit the mapname

If you're only announcing certain monsters, why don't you just attach a label to those monsters? That way you won't be unnecessarily running an event on every monster you kill.

how can i do that? can you give me an example?

 

is this a correct example of what you are saying?

    mes "I will spawn 5 Porings for you!";
    close2;
    monster "this",0,0,"Poring 1",1002,1,strnpcinfo(0)+"::OnPoring1Dead";
    monster "this",0,0,"Poring 2",1002,1,strnpcinfo(0)+"::OnPoring2Dead";
    monster "this",0,0,"Poring 3",1002,1,strnpcinfo(0)+"::OnPoring3Dead";
    monster "this",0,0,"Poring 4",1002,1,strnpcinfo(0)+"::OnPoring4Dead";
    monster "this",0,0,"Poring 5",1002,1,strnpcinfo(0)+"::OnPoring5Dead";
    end;

OnPoring1Dead:
    mes "You killed Poring 1";
    close;
OnPoring2Dead:
    mes "You killed Poring 2";
    close;
OnPoring3Dead:
    mes "You killed Poring 3";
    close;
OnPoring4Dead:
    mes "You killed Poring 4";
    close;
OnPoring5Dead:
    mes "You killed Poring 5";
    close;

Yes I guess @Euphy mean so, by doing monster label your server will not trigger an OnNPCKillEvent check every time a player killed something which will reduce your server load. But don't forget to disable the default monster script unless you planning to modify the file itself.

[Euphy]

You can actually add an event in a normal monster spawn -- for some reason, a lot of people seem to be unaware of this, but it's clearly stated in the documentation:

** Create a permanent monster spawn:

<map name>,<x>,<y>,<xs>,<ys>%TAB%monster%TAB%<monster name>%TAB%<mob id>,<amount>,<delay1>,<delay2>,<event>{,<mob size>,<mob ai>}

...

Event is a script event to be executed when the mob is killed. The event must

be in the form "NPCName::OnEventName" to execute, and the event name label

should start with "On". As with all events, if the NPC is an on-touch NPC, the

player who triggers the script must be within 'trigger' range for the event to

work.

Alright, thanks for the information =)
