resource\script\calculate\exp_and_level.lua

 

search for:

function GetExp_New(dead , atk  ) 

Under this:

function GetExp_New(dead , atk  ) 
	if ValidCha(atk) == 0  then 
		LG ( "exp_atker=NIL" , "function GetExp_New : atker = nil " ) 
		return 
	end 
	local a = Check_Combat_Mod(dead , atk ) 
	if a==1 then 
	GetExp_PKM( dead , atk ) --[[player kill monster]]--
	elseif a==2 then 
	GetExp_MKP(dead , atk) --[[monster kill player]]--
	elseif a==3 then 
	GetExp_PKP(dead , atk) --[[player kill player]]--
	elseif a==4 then 
	GetExp_Noexp(dead , atk) --[[monster kill monster]]--
	else 
	end 

Add the following:

    local id = GetChaID(dead) -- Retrieve ID of killed monster
    local monstername = GetChaDefaultName(dead) -- Retrieve name of killed monster
    local cha_name = GetChaDefaultName ( atk ) -- Retrieve name of the player killed the monster

    if id ==973 then -- Check for monster ID ( characterinfo.txt ID )
        GMNotice(string.format('<%s> has killed, <%s> !!', cha_name, monstername)); -- Announce a GMNotice
	-- ( Requires GameServer and GroupServer with enabled GMNotice function, otherwise use the normal Notice Function )
		Notice("<".cha_name."> has killed, <".monstername."> !!")
    end

Goodluck.

welcome to pkodev

Hello @Yie and @cpworkerz,

 

one more solution:

 

Add this script to file functions.lua

-- Player killed monster event
GetExp_PKM__Original = GetExp_PKM
GetExp_PKM = function(monster, role)
	
	-- Call original function GetExp_PKM()
	GetExp_PKM__Original(monster, role)
	
	-- Get ID of the killed monster
	local mob_id = GetChaID(monster)
	
	-- Check the monster ID
	if (mob_id == 789) then -- Black Dragon
		
		-- Show a message
		Notice( string.format("%s has killed %s!", GetChaDefaultName(role), GetChaDefaultName(monster)) )
		
	end
	
end

Adding onto what @V3ct0r said using hooks, this is a somewhat better version of his which allows more simplistic usage without adding more conditions within the function, just new variables.

BossKillNotice = {}
BossKillNotice[789] = '[&MONSTER&] was killed by [&PLAYER&]!'

OriginalGetExp_PKM = GetExp_PKM
GetExp_PKM = function(Monster, Player)
	OriginalGetExp_PKM(Monster, Player)                 -- Call original function GetExp_PKM()
	local MonsterID = GetChaID(Monster)                 -- Get ID of the killed monster.
	local MonsterName = GetChaDefaultName(Monster)      -- Get monster name.
    local PlayerName = GetChaDefaultName(Player)        -- Get player name.

    if not BossKillNotice[MonsterID] then
        return                                          -- No point in continuing function if a notice is not declared for this ID.
    end
    local Message = BossKillNotice[MonsterID]
    Message = Message:gsub('&MONSTER&', MonsterName)    -- Replace placeholder with actual monster name.
    Message = Message:gsub('&PLAYER&', PlayerName)      -- Replace placeholder with actual player name.
    Notice(Message)
end

Essentially just add a new variable under "BossKillNotice" as the example shown. The "&MONSTER&" and "&PLAYER&" are placeholders, meaning you can move them aroiund for more creative notices at your liking.

 

For example, this shows the monster was killed by the player:

BossKillNotice[789] = '[&MONSTER&] was killed by [&PLAYER&]!'

You can also do the player killed the monster:

BossKillNotice[789] = '[&PLAYER&] killed [&MONSTER&]!'

And the "[789]" correspond to the monster ID, so to add a new notice, just change the ID. Like this:

BossKillNotice[989] = '[&MONSTER&] was killed by [&PLAYER&]!'

This should be compatible with all lua versions I think.
