LUA to set a player on fire?

[UngratefulDead]

I want to have an item that doesn't work every time, sometimes it sets the player on fire instead. I have all of that coded in the LUAs, except I'm hung up getting the fire to start. It doesn't seem to be:

getPlayer():getBodyDamage():setIsOnFire(1);

Because that gives me a stack trace. I'd be okay if it also set the square itself on fire (although I'm not sure how it would work on servers with no firespread), I just thought that would probably be a little trickier.

Have you tried to trigger it via an item or an alternative script?

Sorry for the very late reply, I just seen this thread.

Coincidentally I have experience with setting things on fire via my work on Cheat Menu, so I might be able to scribble something out quickly...

local function startFire()	local player = getPlayer();	player():getSquare():StartFire();end
