Can't get the sevice tab to work

[Necroflange]

im a newb at moding but i think im getting the hang of it ..slowly

ive watched crows vendor tut and i get it... i can get most of it to work properly.

my question is i cant get the "barter exit" option under the service tab to work. when the barter menu closes it goes right back to my choices menu...am i missing somthing?

too..id like to know how to get an npc to attack the player straight out of dialog..( i.e. when you piss off Lucas Sims in megton by telling him you want to take his hat).

 

i really hope some one can help..thanx a ton.

Well, if by goes back to the choices menu you mean that when exiting the Barter menu the game goes back into the dialog with the vendor, that's what it always does with vanilla NPCs. So if you want it to do something else, I'm not sure what you mean.

 

As for the attacking straight out of dialog, why not just look up that dialog with Simms and see how they did it? Seems pretty straightforward to me.

the scenario is: i want my player to try to rob a vendor im making. i got it to work with "startcombat player" but i wanted it to drop out of the dialog window immedietly and start to attack. but i kept having to click "goodbye" out of the dialog window first. but i got it to work by checking the "goodbye" box. (duh lol) thanx dude for making me search harder..that was really eluding me.

 

as for the barter exit bit..i went around to all the vendors in megaton and it seems your right, they do exactly what you said. my memory of then was wrong..i was looking for something that wasnt there..lol.

i was under the assumption that by useing the "barterexit" thing in the service tab i could get the vendor to say somehting witty BEFORE going back in to the dialog..if thats not the case then what does it do?

 

and thanx again..youve freed me up to work on my mod again instead of chaseing my tail..lol
