Script help.

[simsarmy]

Right, not sure how to say this but.

Im doing my first mod, 'Sortof' (I have been working on mods for a while now, being the first I have ever done, but now I am settling down and working on a mod everyone will like)

 

Anyway!!! :)

 

I have made it so that when you equip a ring it teleports you to a xmarker.

 

Begin onEquip player
  Player. moveto xsimsarmysxmarker
End

 

But when you get there, my character cannot move from the xmarker, unless you save, and reload...

I think that the problem is that, when you equip the ring, you are still in the inv, that might cause a problem.

So please, can someone tell me a way of fixing this, or telling me what to type to make it come out of your inv, before it teleports you? o_O

[simsarmy]

OH!, and as long as I have the chance, I need to know how to make my DARNED NPC's, speak!!!

 

I don't need to give them sound, just to make sure.

 

Problem:

 

Right I type in, urm lets say...

Hello my name is bob

 

I put in:

GetisID xsimsarmysbob == 1

 

RIGHT???

o_O

 

All I come up with is the almighty: I HAVE NO GREETING???

 

 

AND!!!!!!

 

I also, seem to have a glitch witch means that the Mage Schoars still call you an apprenitce, even when you are Arch-Mage, this kinda links with the problem that I have with making NPC's speaking, but at the moment I have made a patch () that simply asks if you are in the Arch-Mage rank...

 

Getfractionrank < 9

 

So if you are in the Arch-Mage rank, it will just go to rumours...

 

BUT, I want to know how to make my own dioulogue, or if a patch already exists?

Try going in game and select the ring as a hotkey. Then equip the ring using the hotkey, so you won't be in your inventory while doing it. This isn't a solution, but it helps you see whether the inventory is the problem.

 

Or if the ring being equipped is the problem, what if the ring would be unequipped right away?

Begin onEquip player
player.UnequipItem YourRing 1   
Player. moveto xsimsarmysxmarker
End

And maybe you can check my quest tutorial to find out how I made the greetings. ;)

No, I think that the problem is that your still in the inventory screen when you teleport...

So there must be somthing like

inventorymenu.disable o_O or somthing...

 

How would I go out of my way to find out?

 

Plus

 

I DO THE WHOLE JUNK for diolouge, *Pant* >:( its all there,

I go to greeting, do it all

Put in GetIsID Myguy

But nothing... Waaaaa! :ohmy:

 

PLUS!!! Thanks Povuholo, your a real mate!

[Povuholo]

If you show me a screenshot of your quest window with your greeting, I'm sure I can figure it out. ;)

 

I tried searching for disabling/closing inventory already, but I couldn't find anything.

You could do something with a spell. I think it will work, but I'm not sure.

ScriptName YourScriptedSpellScript

begin ScriptEffectStart
Player.moveto xsimsarmysxmarker
end


begin ScriptEffectFinish
end

Add a new spell with this scripted spell effect.

And then this is the script for the ring:

Begin onEquip player
cast YourScriptedSpell player 
End

[simsarmy]

Ah, thanks! I tried using a spell for this too, but I put in:

 

begin onActivate

 

for the spell script

 

And, I lost the modem for my computer latey, and I can't transfer data from this comp and the one with my mod on... So I can't show you a screenshot... Thanks anyway!!!

 

Anyways, I'm off now to try out the new starting part for the script, if it doesnt work, I will just carry on with the main part of the mod.

here is the function you need: MenuMode

 

example:

begin OnEquip
If (MenuMode 1002 == 1)
		Player. moveto xsimsarmysxmarker  
Endif
end

Yes but the player was supposed to be moved when the menu was CLOSED. This only prevents it from running when the item is equipped while the menu is closed (E.G. by using a hotkey)

 

So that would be(MenuMode 1002 == 0). But since you have to be in your inventory to equip the item (Or you'll have to hotkey it but not everyone will know that and that's annoying.) the menu is open, so the player won't be moved.

 

If I'm wrong I'm sorry, but I think I'm right. I suggest you stick with the spell, since the spell will be casted after you close your inventory which means you get what you want.

Why would you need a script for dialogue?

 

You can go to the dialogue section of the CS and make you dialoge there. Find bob and click the dialogue box and find the greeting you made.

 

Personally, I'd just skip dialogue altogether.

Why skip dialogue? Because of the voice acting? As long as your lines are good people won't mind the lack of voice acting...

 

The dialogue question was an extra question, not related to the script help. And let's not forget you should go into the quest window of the CS to make your dialogue, because the real dialogue window with 'filtered dialogue' can create some bugs... Somehow.

 

Alright about the dialogue: Did you add the dialogue to a quest? If it was a new quest you created, did you change the priority (If it's at 0 it won't work)? Did you use the quest window to go to your dialogue, instead of going directly to the dialogue window as mentioned above?

 

(wow I've been posting a lot here. Oh well it's no spam so...)
