modifying autofight.lua to warn on specific monster

[yingyeo]

I want to modify autofight.lua to warn on specific monster.

So I modify this file as follows.

  Code:

...

 info.threat = m:threat()
 info.mname = m:mname()
  return info
...

  elseif info == nil then
    crawl.mpr("No target in view!")
  elseif info.mname =="ancient lich" then
    crawl.mpr("this is ancient lich!")
  elseif info.can_hit == 3 then
    attack_fire(x,y)

...

But this is not work.

I want your advice Because I'm poor at this things.

Don't alter the lua.

Instead alter your more messages.

Goto init.txt add

  Code:

###################### Combat ###########
force_more_message = comes into view.
force_more_message = come into view.


Possibly instead use

  Code:

###################### Combat ###########
force_more_message = .* Ancient Lich .* view.


or something similar; not too keen on what the wildcards are.

Try replacing m:mname with m:name (and maybe "ancient lich" with "Ancient lich").
