Help)How to spawn prefab when the creature attacks.

[Berany]

Hi.

I'm making a custom character mod.

This character has followers who fight together when the player is attack enemy or attacked by the enemy.

I know how to get creatures to attack the enemy directly.

But what I want is for the creatures to spawn my custom prefab to the enemy's position.

For example, when a player meets an enemy, this follower summons lightning(Example of my custom prefab) at the enemy's position.

Can you tell me how to do this?

I'd be very grateful if I could get some help because I know only basic things about Lua.

I'm sorry if my english was so immature that it was hard for you to understand.

Thank you for reading it.

Hi. I don't know if you wanted to achieve exactly this effect, but there it is.

Inside of your follower's stategraph you need to find state "attack"
 

Quote

State{
        name = "attack",
        tags = {"attack", "notalking", "abouttoattack", "busy"},

something like this.

Then in "events"...

Quote

        events =
        {
            EventHandler("animover", function(inst)
                if inst.AnimState:AnimDone() then
                    inst.sg:GoToState("idle")
                    local x, y, z = inst.Transform:GetWorldPosition()                    
                    SpawnPrefab("lightning").Transform:SetPosition(x, y, z)
                    inst:Remove()
                end
            end),
        },

 ...it should look like this.

If it didn't help I will try something else.
