few questions about NPC and their speech

[Pendule]

Hi!

I've tried the ON=@SEENEWPLAYER event as it is written on the tutorial from this forum and the one from Quickening's site, none of them have worked. I tried the werewolf script by barkley (by Theol Admin Dark) and still, no event. I've tried it by creating the NPC with my AD and logging with a player account and entering its screen.

I've also noticed that on some tutorials they use TEVENT instead of TEVENTS. Does it matters?

If you have any idea of what could be my problem, I would enjoy your advices thx

Does anyone knows how to set the [SPEECH] section in SPHERETables.scp?

I only have

Code: Select all

[SPEECH]
// Assign names to the speech blocks and files.

and I couldn't find any information on that.

Make a file in your speech directory that fits the purpose. For example this file is vendor.scp

Code: Select all

ON=@SeeNewPlayer
   if ( <DISTANCE> > 5 )   // too far away ?
          return 1   // do nothing for now
   ENDIF
   FACE
   SAY Equipment for sale
   SAY I have some of the best deals in the area
   RETURN 0

Then you need to add the new speech to your tables.scp file. Here is mine for example. Note that vendor shows up in that list

Code: Select all

[EVENTS]
eacceptitem
erefuseitem
escavenger
einternalspace
evilguards
orderguards
killed
monster
guards
packanimal
resist
eNecro
eUndeadRage
eSummoned
townshopkeep
santa

Then you add the event to the npc. Here is my vendor. Notice the line that says TEVENTS=vendor

Code: Select all

It turns out my speech folder was in scripts\... I reside in shame.
Thanks for the help, still very helpful.
