Continous Specialeffect

[ProtoMan]

Hi!

I would like to create a continuous effect on an NPC, which is active not only when I click on it, but that is always visible, even if I click sull'NPC. Is it possible?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

(Sorry for my terrible English.. )

I've find also a Prontera map custom whit the continuos effect, so they work on my version/server but I don't know how, damn

 

Map effects are different. They work in the map file and aren't managed by the server.

The thing you want is something like this:

But based on the other scripts which didn't work, and this one is almost exactly...

UP!

You can do it by using the freeloop command and then use sleep.

 

The following code will display effect #70 every 0.5 secs after it's loaded.

OnInit:
	freeloop(1);
	while(!.xxx) {
		specialeffect 70;
		sleep 500;
	}

Oh great, finally one! Thanks for reply;
the "xxx" what mean?
Because I try to set it like that, but it doesn't work:

 

 

prontera,102,102,3 script SpecialEffect 66,{

 

OnInit:

freeloop(1);

while(!.xxx) {

specialeffect 70;

sleep 500;

}

mes "Done";

close;

 

}

Something like this would also work.

prontera,102,102,3	script	SpecialEffect	66,{
	mes "Done";
	close;

OnInit:
OnTimer500:
	specialeffect 70;
	initnpctimer;
}

It won't work because you placed the mes command under the OnInit label. OnInit triggers everytime the server is (re)loaded (in which no player is attached to the script), while mes needs an attached player to function, so that's probably why it isn't working. The mes command contradicts the OnInit label.

 

.xxx is a variable, but it is not declared, which is why I used while(!.xxx). !.xxx means that .xxx has no value. While is a looping function, so as long as !.xxx is true (or .xxx is not declared), it will do the script in it over and over again.

 

So, the correct script would be:

prontera,102,102,3 script SpecialEffect 66,{

  mes "Done";
  close;

OnInit:
	freeloop(1);
	while(!.xxx) {
	specialeffect 70;
	sleep 500;
	}

}

On a side note, Skorm's method is much easier to do.
