Spwan script
Hey guys
i hvae a long time not work with modding
and yet i don´t know what i have to do yet.
i will make a script with i can spwan NPC´s
function spwawn()
local spwan_point = {-61.996055603027, 0.92057931423187, 293.67742919922,3402,106182}
alife():create("mar_clear_sky_respawn_1", vector():set(spwan_point))
alife():create("mar_clear_sky_respawn_2", vector():set(spwan_point))
alife():create("mar_clear_sky_respawn_3", vector():set(spwan_point))
end
but when i hvae inculd it in the bin_stalker.script
npc_spawnen2.spwawn()
then the npc´s don´t spwan
why?
can i spwan it only with a dialog and then with <action>?
thanke you. |

I hate to say it, but that script is an absolute mess. Even I don't know where to begin debugging it. The reason it probably isn't excuting is that it isn't even valid syntax (I've spotted several errors already)
If just respawning an npc is all you want to do, just spawn them through an ltx config. Its easier, and you don't have to mess around with keeping track of variables in scripts. And it is a lot shorter, and easier to manage.
From my mod (for CS, but most likely compatible with SoC)
[logic]
active = sr_idle@check
[sr_idle@check]
on_info = {!counter_greater(gar_walker_count:8) =dist_to_actor_ge(100)} sr_idle@spawn_walker
[sr_idle@spawn_walker]
on_game_timer = 2000 | sr_idle@check %=inc_counter(gar_walker_count) =spawn_object(sim_gar_stalker_default_walker_1:gar_stalker_walker_spawn)%
All this does is every 2000 ingame seconds, it checks to see if we can spawn a special npc. If we can, spawn them at some way point. The NPC has their own logic, and just excutes that. This sample is set up to spawn 8 npc's, but could easily be adjusted to spawn any number.
Its easier to read and understand, we don't have to manage time checks, spawning of npc's, checking to see if they are dead - the game does that for us.
And the npc logic (just the basic parts)
[logic]
active = mob_home@base
on_death = death
on_hit = hit
;roam sequence
[mob_home@base]
path_home = gar_walker_home
home_min_radius = 10
home_max_radius = 40
;death and hit info
[death]
on_info = %=dec_counter(gar_walker_count)%
[hit]
on_info = {=npc_not_hit_by_actor} nil %=npc_hit_npc%
All this does is define what they will do as their job, when they get hit, and when they die.
You'll want your logic to be pointing to your npc's own custom job, or sending them to a smart terrain.
If you still want to do thsi via script, I strongly suggest using this tool to check your scripts before trying them ingame: https://www.gsc-game.com/index.php?t=community&s=forums&s_game_type=xr&thm_page=88&thm_id=15106&sec_id=16
It will help find any syntax errors in your script that will prevent it working ingame. The seconds needed to run this could save hours ingame, trying to debug your script.

The good thing about the code I listed is that it works even if the actor doesn't even shoot a Stalker. I can used this code to create an infinite number of respawning Stalkers and Bandits in garbage, and just have them killing each other. When 1 dies, a new one gets spawned after some delay.
When my npc dies, a counter gets reduced (gar_walker_count) from their logic. In my spawn logic config, if that counter is less than 8, spawn a new npc. It doesn't matter how they die - actor, another npc, mutant, anomaly, or even death via script - the counter gets reduced, and a new npc spawned to take his place.
The game provides all of these functions in xr_conditions and xr_effects to use in logic ltx files, so you don't need to reinvent the wheel to spawn an npc - its all there. You just need to combine it into a config.
Besides, with this approach, link the spawner ltx config to a space restrictor on the marsh level, and it will only run on the marsh level. Your script will run on all levels, and just waste cpu cycles evaluating various if statements.
Now, this section of your code here:
local levels = [{0] = "marsh", [1] = "l01_escape", [2] = "l02_garbage", [3] = "l03_agroprom", [4] = "l04_darkvalley", [5] = "l05_bar", [6] = "l06_rostok", [7] = "l07_military", [8] = "l08_yantar"}
local level_name = level.name()
... stuff here
for indx, lvl in pairs(levels)do
if level_name == lvl then
ws = indx
spwan = true
if spwan == true then
if ws == 0 then
... stuff here
end
end
end
end
Is a huge waste of resources. It would be better written as this:
local level_name = level.name()
... stuff here
if level_name == "marsh" then
... stuff here
end
Your script has a lot of redunant code. You only need to spawn on marsh, so there is no need to loop though a table of level names, and check them against the current level name, so we can get rid of that. And then the level number in the table, which you check, even after checking that we have the right number is redundant, so that can go. And setting some variable to true, then checking to make sure it is true? redundant, so that can go.
So, assuming that these are our scripts, yours would do about 7 different steps before even getting to the spawn code, not to mention it wil run over all the variables in your level list, whereas my tidied code does it in 2, and are functionally identical. Mine is faster, easier to read, and debug.
The reasons your script probably isn't workng is numerous syntax errors. I've spotted 2 that would stop it working, and I haven't even used the LUA checker yet, and that might turn up even more. When writing scripts, that lua checker I linked is your best friend. And there are several more that would pass the checker, but fail ingame and cause a ctd because they are the wrong types for what you are trying to use them for (eg your trying to use a int where a string is expected in one section)
Also, no where in this code, is a check to see if one of your npc's is dead, so even if this script was working, it would just spam spawn npc's every time the timer expired.
I would like to help you fix this, but it is simply a mess. It would be 100 times easier to just use ltx configs.
Create a space restrictor on the marsh level, assign it a type of 4, link an ltx config, and put this inside the config
[logic]
active = sr_idle@check
[sr_idle@check]
on_info = {-mar_csky_stalker_1) =dist_to_actor_ge(100)} sr_idle@spawn_csky_stalker_1
on_info2 = {-mar_csky_stalker_2) =dist_to_actor_ge(100)} sr_idle@spawn_csky_stalker_1
on_info3 = {-mar_csky_stalker_3) =dist_to_actor_ge(100)} sr_idle@spawn_csky_stalker_1
[sr_idle@spawn_csky_stalker_1]
on_game_timer = 2000 | sr_idle@check %=+mar_csky_stalker_1 =respawner_spawn(mar_clear_sky_respawn_1)%
[sr_idle@spawn_csky_stalker_2]
on_game_timer = 2000 | sr_idle@check %=+mar_csky_stalker_2 =respawner_spawn(mar_clear_sky_respawn_2)%
[sr_idle@spawn_csky_stalker_3]
on_game_timer = 2000 | sr_idle@check %=+mar_csky_stalker_3 =respawner_spawn(mar_clear_sky_respawn_3)%
Remember to recompile the all.spawn
Now just create 3 new infoportions (mar_csky_stalker_1, mar_csky_stalker_2, mar_csky_stalker_3), 3 new logic configs, one for each of your npc profiles that will govern how they will act, what smart terrains they will go to, and they should look like this:
[smart_terrains]
some_marsh_smart_terrain = true
[logic]
on_death = death
[death]
on_info = %-mar_csky_stalker_x%
and x is the number for the infoportion (1,2,3). Then just link this config with their ltx section.
Done. 3 special respawning npc's on marsh when they die from anything. And if you want to add new npc's, or remove existing ones, then its just recreating a new npc logic file, and adding lines to the spawn script, which are essentially duplicates of the existing ones, or just deleting them.
(some SoC modder may want to double check the npc logic, I just reconstructed it from looking at the files. Should be right, though.)
There is no need to go to this level of trouble, writing a script for such a trival thing, considering GSC left a bunch of functions lying around for this sort of thing, easily formed into a logic config.
If it was a once off spawn, then a custom script function would suffice. But even then, I would call it from a dialog, or an ltx logic config.
Sorry for the block of text.

can i use this logic script only when i have a smart terrain?
I'm not a smart script that is terrain
because my gulag script don´t works and nobody can me help and say this what i do is right.
must i have a smar terrain? |

on wich point the npc´s will berespwaned?
on the point of the space restrictor?
and i don´t need a script, is that right?
must i spwan the npc´s first or spwan the logic script this npc´s?

why?
