Check if Building was completed

Is there a way to proof whether the Construction Site which someone built, had turned into a real building or not?

I want to send a message in case of a successful construction.

For instance:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7

addhook("build","b2d")
function b2d(id,type,x,y)
     if type < 20 then
		  msg("Test message") -- ONLY IF THE CONSTRUCTION SITE TURNED INTO A BUILDING
          return 0
     end
end

The construction site has a constant building time, so a cs2d lua cmd

timer should work for this half of the buildings.

In addition to what user

VADemon said you can also use cs2d lua cmd

objectat to verify if there's a object of the wanted type on on that position.

Well, the construction site could be destroyed until it's finished. Is there a way to inspect the X and Y coords while the building is under construction and check after the constant time whether it is finished or not?

EDIT: I havent read Starkkz post yet

Could someone tell me how I can find out the construction time of each building?

addhook("build", "buildmsg")

buildmsg_timer = {
	-- {id, type, x, y, mode, objectid, counter=0}
}

function buildmsg(id, type, x, y, mode, objectid)
	msg("Player: ".. id ..", type: ".. type ..", mode: ".. mode ..", objid: ".. objectid)
	if type < 20 then
		msg("Starting ticker for building")
		table.insert(buildmsg_timer, {id, type, x, y, mode, objectid, 0})
	end
end

addhook("always", "always_buildmsg")
function always_buildmsg()
	for i = #buildmsg_timer, 1, -1  do 	-- reverse order is required for table.remove
		--msg("Checking ID: ".. i .. " out of ".. #buildmsg_timer)
		if objectat(buildmsg_timer[i][3], buildmsg_timer[i][4], 10) ~= 0 then
			buildmsg_timer[i][7] = buildmsg_timer[i][7] + 1
		else
			msg("Object built at ".. buildmsg_timer[i][3].."|"..buildmsg_timer[i][4] .." in ".. buildmsg_timer[i][7] .."ticks")
			table.remove(buildmsg_timer, i)
		end
	end
end

Turns out building times differ:
Wall 3 = 200/201 ticks
Supply: 250 ticks etc.?

function _build(id, _type, x, y, mode, obj_id)
    wait(obj_times[_type], function()
        if object(obj_id, "type") == _type then
            msg(player(id, "name").." successfully built a "..object(obj_id, "typename").." at tile ["..x..","..y.."]")
        end
    end)

end

function _objectkill(id, pl)
    if object(id, "type") == 10 then
        msg(player(id, "name").."'s construction site was destroyed by "..(pl ~= 0 and player(pl, "name") or "a ghost"))
    end
end

You'll get a message when a building is finished, or when a construction site is destroyed (see lines 19 and 27 respectively).

Your script worked for the first buildings, but after some tries killing the construction site I got this error message:

1

I'm not getting the same error.

Are you running any other scripts that replaces player object?

In any case, you can replace line 27 with a simple msg(pl.." destroyed "..id).

Fixed
