Help with find monster script please

Post by HypnoToad »

I have this script that finds monsters on all levels but can't figure out how to change it to find monsters on the current level only.

for x = 1, getMaxLevels() do
for monster in allEntities(x) do
if monster.name == "ogre" then
print( monster.id..":", " on level "..monster.level,"@", "X:"..monster.x, "Y:"..monster.y )
end
end
end

I'm sure it's obvious but I have tried many changes but still comes back with an error, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Does this work?

Code: Select all

for monster in allEntities(party.level) do
	if monster.name == "ogre" then
		print( monster.id..":", " on level "..monster.level,"@", "X:"..monster.x, "Y:"..monster.y )
	end
end

Works fine, I thought I tried that but must have had some thing wrong as it came back with the old "global" error, thanks very much. :)

Oh silly me, I had "for monsters in .........", duh. :roll:
