Killing Multiple People

[mastar891]

So, I've had this problem for a while.

 

Basically in scripts, if my NPC's aren't duplicates it's impossible for me to do:

 

If everyone's dead, then run this.

 

This is because what ends up happening is that I do:

begin OnDeath

If (Thisactor.GetDead == 1 && Thisotheractor.Getdead == 1)
run this command
EndiF
End

What ends up happening is that the script checks if everyone's dead after I kill the actor with this script and if they're not, nothing happens. So I'm forced to make the command run only once one actor is dead, which is...not what I want.

 

I was wondering if anyone knew how to do it like in the Hoover Dam Battle where the script checked if all of General Oliver's soldiers are dead as well as General Oliver before ending the game.

Any gamemode script? Create quest, attach script to it

begin gamemode

if Actor1Ref.GetDead && Actor2Ref.GetDead 
; do this
endif

end

And every N seconds (N = quest script delay, 5 seconds by default) code will run

So it worked, problem is. I can't go menumode:

begin gamemode

if Actor1Ref.GetDead && Actor2Ref.GetDead 
; do this
endif

end

Begin MenuMode

set button to getbuttonpressed

if doonce ==0
	If (button ==0)
{commands here primarily enabling stuff like Reference.Enable 1}
	EndIf

	If (button ==1)
{commands here}

	EndIf
EndIf
End

What you want to do here is bring menu before player.

 

You can use token. Create Misc Item and attach script to it

ScriptName MyTokenScript

Begin OnAdd PlayerRef
showmessage Yourmessage (with buttons)
end


Begin MenuMode

set button to getbuttonpressed

if doonce ==0
    If (button ==0)
   PlayerRef.RenoveItem MyToken 1 1
 {commands here}
    EndIf

    If (button ==1)
      PlayerRef.RenoveItem MyToken 1 1
{commands here}

    EndIf
EndIf
End

and add that token when all NPC are dead via PlayerRef.AddItem MyToken 1 1

When you do that - menu will show up

[mastar891]

Okay so it works :D which is amazing!

 

But the message keeps showing up every time you choose something.

 

Here's the item:

scn LTATOAlphaItemSCRIPT

short doonce
short button

Begin OnAdd PlayerRef

ShowMessage LTATOAlphaDestruction

End


Begin MenuMode

set button to getbuttonpressed

if doonce ==0
	If (button ==0)
(useless stuff that makes it really confusing to look at, they're all commands)
		PlayerRef.RemoveItem LTATOAlphaItem 1 1
	EndIf

	If (button ==1)
(useless stuff that makes it really confusing to look at, they're all commands)
		PlayerRef.RemoveItem LTATOAlphaItem 1 1
	EndIf

EndIf

End

And the Quest Script:

 

scn LTATOStationChecker

Begin Gamemode

If (LTATOStupidRangerNEW.GetDead == 1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier1.GetDead == 1 && RSAlphaCastilloRef.GetDead ==1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier2.GetDead == 1 && LineholmREF.GetDead == 1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier3.GetDead == 1)
SetStage LTAttackTheOutposts 30
PlayerRef.AddItem LTATOAlphaItem 1 1
EndIf

End

[tomm434]

You didn't do script blocker so script in gamemode executes every N seconds. Stop the quest or introduce a variable

If all are dead

if MyInt == 0
set MyInt to 1
PlayerRef.AddItem Mytoken 1 1
endif

endif

[mastar891]

So I did:

scn LTATOStationChecker

Begin Gamemode

If (LTATOStupidRangerNEW.GetDead == 1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier1.GetDead == 1 && RSAlphaCastilloRef.GetDead ==1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier2.GetDead == 1 && LineholmREF.GetDead == 1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier3.GetDead == 1)
	SetStage LTAttackTheOutposts 30

	int IntegerCheck
	set IntegerCheck to 0
	if IntegerCheck == 0
		set IntegerCheck to 1
		PlayerRef.AddItem LTATOAlphaItem 1 1
	EndIf
EndIf

End

Didn't work.

[tomm434]

That's right because you sen int to 0 every time script executes so IntegerCheck becomes 0 every N seconds.

 

Script always executes from Top to Botton. This script executes from top to bottom every N seconds.

Each variable is eval to 0 by default.

[mastar891]

Yeah it doesn't work. I tried making an integer that would go for both scripts, but I guess integers aren't global.

[tomm434]

Hm try this

scn LTATOStationChecker

    int IntegerCheck

Begin Gamemode

If (LTATOStupidRangerNEW.GetDead == 1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier1.GetDead == 1 && RSAlphaCastilloRef.GetDead ==1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier2.GetDead == 1 && LineholmREF.GetDead == 1 && LTATOAlphaSoldier3.GetDead == 1)

    if IntegerCheck == 0
        SetStage LTAttackTheOutposts 30
        set IntegerCheck to 1
        PlayerRef.AddItem LTATOAlphaItem 1 1
        stopquest <quest to which this script attached>
    EndIf

EndIf

End

Because it should work - token is added to player only one time so message should appear only one time
