Lua function cast spell on duration end

[LordPsyan]

I have never used lua in any form before, except the hello world example in the docs... it worked. I am trying to have a spell cast on a player, when an aura expires. There is a 30 second timer countdown on an aura, and when it gets to 0, I want it to cast another. is this currently possible? Could someone post an example?

 

I did not find much on spells, but I saw getduration and cast when reading through the docs.

 

Thanks.

So essentially you want to trigger a spell after an aura ends.

Eluna has little to no spell/aura scripting capabilities. You should do this in C++ or through some other means.
You can always make some kind of workaround though (For example add a periodic check on the player for when he has the aura and it adds the second aura when he no longer has the first the aura).

I have tried C++. Even duplicated a spell that does something similar, but can never get it to trigger. This is driving me nuts. it seems like it should be a simple task. Thanks for the fast reply.
