Help with making a quest.

[smoblikat]

I am making a quest that gets started by the activation of the book but i have no idea how to make it, i read the tutorial on quest making but it doesnt explain how to make a book activate the quest and the script i made doesnt activate it for some reason

Scriptname SaltyBook

 

Begin OnEquip

 

setstage SaltyMuffinQuestPirate 10

 

end

any and all help would be appreciated, and if you know of a good quest making tutorial other than the one on planet elderscrolls please post it.

Also can you help me with another thing, after you read the book you have to go to a guy and ask him for help, he is supposes to tell you to go to a fort andi dont know how to make it so that HE helps YOU?

this is my new code but it tells me that nested begin blocks arent allowed, What does that mean?

Scriptname SaltyBook

 

Begin OnAdd

 

short Doonce

 

begin OnActivate

 

if ( IsActionRef Player == 1 ) && ( Doonce == 0 )

 

setstage SaltyMuffinQuestPirate 10

 

set doonce == 1

 

end

 

Stay Salty

You don't need to use any blocks for declaring a variable, just stick them at the beginning of the script right after you declare the name.

 

And Kieranfoy, the singular of kudos is kudos. Just pronounced more like a z than an s. George Carlin made it so!

@Uberman Oh, I know. It's a reference to an old Christmas carol that runs "Give us our figgy pudding."

 

@Smoblikat: Yummy, it is!
