I can get a single line to show up using fpgcrawtext when I approach a npc but I would like something differnet to show up when I appoarch a second time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Use RPG Mod.

Addendum:

It can be done with fpgcrawtext without RPG Mod but RPG Mod was created for role playing.

If CE or Storyteller doesn't respond first, I'll be back with a possible solution. Hint: using a variable plus more scripting.

This should work even without the pickobject condition:



If you write your own text, don't forget that you cannot use the following:

@Flatlander: I feel honoured that you expected me to answer this

Why not have state 10 loop back to state 5 instead of making a state 11?

Just trying to help...


The one and only,

I admit, that most of my scripts have 1 or even several *unnecessary* steps. Personally like it, when it's easy to subtract or add lines without having to change much of the existing.

In that case the *extra* line is simply there to include all sorts of things into the state=10 without touching the crucial fanial line(p.e. a player text like: "I better stay clear of that guy")

Just like the *extra* state=1, state=3 and state=5 lines in this script are also not only there to make the timer foolproof, but to leave space for text, the player will say

Hmmm, state 1 could have been state 0, but the way I see it, states 3 and 5 were necessary, since they end up going to different parts of the script.


The one and only,

He storyteller, since you have done some great work on the pickobject code, I knew you could come up with something. I hope you don't mind that I used the same text example as you did.

Now just to show that in programming, even simple scripting, there is always more that one way to code something.

Here is my code. The first thing I thought of was using a variable as mentioned in my first post. The reason for the second line for each conversation line is so that the line will remain on the screen while the player is within 50 units. When player leaves character it will disappear and increment the variable and wait until the player is within 50 units again. Of course this prevents the use of the timer; which there is nothing wrong with the timer.

of course... i'm a rokie, so it's not perfect but it's working
it's from my game 50.caliber
the global variation is used for opening a door.

It doesn't have to be elegant. The important thing is that it works .

''It doesn't have to be elegant. The important thing is that it works''




it's working on my computer, my game will cost 5 dollars, but, you guys can use ALL of my custom material, scripts, but not the game's main idea THAT'S MINEEEE !!!

THE GAME will take 4 years to be ready... every gun , floor, wall, will have a shader. I learned a ridiculous notion of scripting for now, but until the game evolve in to final product, i probably will know how to code an ''EXTREME AI'' i have here muth more complex scripts... if one of you guys teath me how to do that code thing , i will post it(and, how do i make my own thread ? i wanna present my game ).
