Shrine Script Problems

[Razakel]

I'm trying to write a script that will do the following:

 

Upon activating a Shrine it will

 

1: Check for an item in inventory.

2: If the player has the item then they'll be prompted to offer it or not.

3: If not, nothing happens.

4: If the player chooses to offer it a spell will be cast on the player and the item will be removed.

Go to http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Main_Page

 

1. see GetItemCount

2. see MessageBox

4. see RemoveItem and Cast

This is what I've got so far..it's casting the spell and I'm getting the message for the spell but nothing else works. :sad:

 

ScriptName 1aDarkLairMephalaShrine

 

ref target

 

Begin OnActivate

 

if IsActionRef player == 1

 

if ( player.getitemcount Nightshade == 0 )

MessageBox "Nothing happens."

elseif ( player.getitemcount Nightshade > 0 )

MessageBox "Do you wish to make an Offering?" "Yes" "No"

endif

 

MessageBox "Mephala accepts your offering!"

Cast 1aDarkLairMephalaShrineSpell Player

elseif ( Player.RemoveItem Nightshade 1 )

endif

end

The way you have this coded, it will cast the spell every time regardless. You need to check what the player selected using GetButtonPressed. Something like

 

short Choice

...

MessageBox "Do you wish to make an Offering?" "Yes" "No"

set Choice to GetButtonPressed

...

if Choice == 1

MessageBox "Mephala accepts your offering!"

Cast 1aDarkLairMephalaShrineSpell Player

Player.RemoveItem Nightshade 1

endif

 

Look at the examples in the MessageBox page.

Alright with this script it will show the message "Nothing Happens" if no nightshade is on the player and will remove the nightshade, give the message "Mephala Accepts Your Offering" and cast the spell on the player if nightshade is on the player.

It won't show the second message box for the option to make the offering or not...but I suppose this works! Thanks for your help.
