NPC 'twins'

[DarthJebus05]

I made a recruitable NPC, forgot to make the 'Eliminate Twins' script. So after I recruited the NPC, he was still stand where I spawned him, but also a Twin was in behind me in my party.

 

So I exit the game and make this script:

 

void main() 
{
ActionPauseConversation();
object oGoodbye;
oGoodbye = GetObjectByTag("Juhani");
SetGlobalFadeOut(1.0, 0.5);    
DelayCommand(1.0, DestroyObject(oGoodbye));
DelayCommand(1.0,SetGlobalFadeIn(0.7,0.0));
ActionResumeConversation();
}

 

Tag is Juhani, since my NPC replaces her.

 

But I have a problem still, he still has Twins when I recruit him.

 

Is that Script right or am I doing something wrong?

 

:EDIT: I got it to work, but now I need the recruit script to trigger right after the conversation ends. I needed to put the Twins script into the last line of conversation, so the recruit script triggers during the dialog.

 

Any help please?

Merge the 2 scripts together. The easy way would be to make each script it's own self contained function call.

 

//This is Psuedocode not the real thing.

void TwinsFunction()
{
  //My code for the twins script.
  ............
}

void RecruitFunction()
{
  //My code for the actual recruiting of my NPC.
  .............
}

void main()
{
  TwinsFunction();
  RecruitFunction();
}

 

 

You could also pass paramaters such as coordinates into those functions if you wanted or you could self contain the coordinates if you don't need to.

Thanks! I'll try it soon, looks promising.

I just tried the script, it compiled alright, I tried repacking the .mod with the script, but I get this error if I have the script in the ERF/MOD builder and wont let me build it:

 

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this

application or machine (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

 

For example:

 

<configuration>

<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

 

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine

rather than being handled by this dialog.

 

This is the script:

 

void TwinsFunction()
{
  ActionPauseConversation();
object oGoodbye;
oGoodbye = GetObjectByTag("Juhani");
SetGlobalFadeOut(1.0, 0.5);    
DelayCommand(1.0, DestroyObject(oGoodbye));
DelayCommand(1.0,SetGlobalFadeIn(0.7,0.0));
ActionResumeConversation();
}

void RecruitFunction()
{
  RemoveAvailableNPC(5);
  AddAvailableNPCByTemplate(5, "reign");
  DelayCommand(8.0,ShowPartySelectionGUI());
}

void main()
{
  TwinsFunction();
  RecruitFunction();
}

 

I named the script endar_two_scripts.

[DarthJebus05]

I got the script to work and the BUILD MOD worked too.

 

But for some reason, the Party Selection Screen doesn't come up, my NPC does disappear, but can be added when I get to Taris.

 

Script used:

 

void TwinsFunction()
{
  ActionPauseConversation();
object oGoodbye;
oGoodbye = GetObjectByTag("Juhani");
SetGlobalFadeOut(1.0, 0.5);    
DelayCommand(1.0, DestroyObject(oGoodbye));
DelayCommand(1.0,SetGlobalFadeIn(0.7,0.0));
ActionResumeConversation();
}

void RecruitFunction()
{
  RemoveAvailableNPC(5);
  AddAvailableNPCByTemplate(5, "reign");
  DelayCommand(8.0,ShowPartySelectionGUI());
}

void main()
{
  TwinsFunction();
  RecruitFunction();
}

[Darkkender]

Try reducing the delay to '1.0' instead of '8.0'. You could be generating too large of a delay.

[DarthJebus05]

Tried it. Didn't work It's only started not showing when I merged those 2 scripts.

 

:EDIT: Got it working.

 

Thanks all.
