There's a script here:

 

http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=143412

 

that has a "How can I make an NPC walk up to me and start a conversation?" type script... not sure if that's what you're looking for however? I'm a script-tard®

 

void main() {
 object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("npc_tag");
 location lMe=GetLocation(GetFirstPC());
   ActionDoCommand(SetCommandable(TRUE,oNPC));
 AssignCommand (oNPC,ActionForceMoveToLocation(lMe,FALSE));
 AssignCommand (oNPC, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC()));
}

you could setup a script off of a trigger placed infront of the person you want the conversation to begin off of.

 

And to make it fire just once setup of a global number.

 

I think you know how to do this already though.

If you are like me you have a good idea, but then have to settle with doing something you know will work but won't look as good. Dems da breaks.

You should probably use MoveToObject rather than MoveToLocation, otherwise the NPC will move to where the player was when the script triggered, rather than to where the player really is, which isn't necessarily the same if the player is moving when spotted.

 

Here is an untested variant which I think would work (which is no guarantee that it actually does work ).

 

Compile and put this script as the OnPerception event script of the NPC:

void main() {
   object oSeen = GetLastPerceived();

   if (GetLastPerceptionSeen() 
       && (oSeen == GetFirstPC())
       && !GetLocalBoolean(OBJECT_SELF, 61)
       && (GetCurrentAction() != ACTION_MOVETOPOINT)) 
   {
       // ST: Spotted the player, move to them...
       ClearAllActions();
       ActionForceMoveToObject(oSeen, FALSE, 2.0, 10.0);
       ActionDoCommand(SetLocalBoolean(OBJECT_SELF, 61, TRUE));
   }
   else if (!GetLocalBoolean(OBJECT_SELF, 61)
       && (GetCurrentAction() == ACTION_MOVETOPOINT))
   {
       // ST: (Hopefully) moving to PC, do nothing...  
   }
   else {
       // ST: Do the usual on-perception AI....
       ExecuteScript("k_ai_master", OBJECT_SELF, 1002);
   }
}

thanks for the script.

 

 

and yea, your right about that.

I think I may have posted this before, but "ActionForceMoveToObject()" usually makes sure that the NPC goes to the PC.
