Scripting help

[Silveredge9]

Hi, I'm having some trouble trying to determine what kind of script I would need to perform a function I intend to use.

 

What I'm trying to do is to have an event activate (For examples sake: Dialogue) when all 3 (and not just 1 or 2) of enemy NPC's have been killed in a fight.

 

Wondering if anybody could suggest a possible script? Any help is appreciated.

You could give the three enemy NPCs a custom OnDeath event script that checks if all three are dead or gone and if so triggers a conversation. For example:

 

void main() {
   [color=PaleGreen]// Set the tags of the three NPCs here.[/color]
   object oNPC1 = GetObjectByTag("FirstNPCTag");
   object oNPC2 = GetObjectByTag("SecondNPCTag");
   object oNPC3 = GetObjectByTag("ThirdNPCTag");

   [color=PaleGreen]// Check if all three NPCs are dead or removed.[/color]
   if ((!GetIsObjectValid(oNPC1) || GetIsDead(oNPC1))
       && (!GetIsObjectValid(oNPC2) || GetIsDead(oNPC2))
       && (!GetIsObjectValid(oNPC3) || GetIsDead(oNPC3)))
   {
       [color=PaleGreen]// Assign the tag of the NPC who dialog should start with here.[/color]
       object oTalker = GetObjectByTag("NPCToTalkTo");
       AssignCommand(oTalker, ClearAllActions());

       [color=PaleGreen]// Set the name of the DLG file to use here[/color]
       AssignCommand(oTalker, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC(), "AllDeadDialog", FALSE, CONVERSATION_TYPE_CINEMATIC, TRUE));
   }

   [color=PaleGreen]// Standard AI OnDeath shouts and custom event signals.[/color]
   SpeakString("GEN_I_AM_DEAD", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
   SpeakString("GEN_ATTACK_MY_TARGET", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
   SignalEvent(OBJECT_SELF, EventUserDefined(1007));
}

Yup, the script works fine. Thanks for the help again.
