How to ?
 

Ok heres the deal, my npc is standing in the direction "up" and i want my NPC to (when (playertouchsme)) change direction to south and say 1;

Please Help..

ROLLS! Sorry... he he.

NPC Code:

---

if (created)

{ dir=0;}



if (playertouchsme)

{ dir=2;

   message 1;

}

I think he wanted this code, you've done Message and Im sure its say, the NPC will prbally be a Man who when you touch him says ''Oh hello'' or ''Dont jump up on my like that'' So script I think you need it:

NPC Code:

---

if (created)

{ dir=0;}



if (playertouchsme)

{ dir=2;

   say 1;

}

---

Please note the first sign is 0, Make sure you have the correct number of sign or it wont work or will say wrong message

you both have horrible script formatting

LOL, I just threw that code together, I didn't care what it looked like. I NEVER EVER EVER script like that x.X
---Shifter
P.S. He said have it say 1 =P
---Shifter

I know but I think he knows basic script so Say is signs,

Well either way, He has both scripts whateva he ment. =D

I meant say as in the NPC reading from sign nr 1 , as in say <signindex>;

Eh the code if kinda buggy, when i enter the room, he says the stuff without me having to touch him =/

Re: How to ?
 

well.. the beeeest way to make something alitlle bit better is..
if(playertouchsme){dir=(playerdir+2)%4;}

but if you wanna make this... Use sleep to the npc turn before say something.... it starts with dir equal 0 and when you touch it it changes to 2.. I think you know that.. rofl

...or maybe you can do this?

NPC Code:

---

if (created||playerendsreading){

  showcharacter;

  // input character properties;

  dir=0;

}

if (playertouchsme){

  dir=2;

  say2 <Insert NPC text here.>

}

---

lol, all of this for a simple sign script. :D

I still think my way was the simplest, but if he wants to do say2, just use say <signindex> and it should work just fine! or if you FEEL it has to be complicated:

NPC Code:

---

if (created)

{ this.touch=0;

   timeout=0.5;

}



if (playertouchsme)

{ this.touch=this.touch+2;

   say <sign index>;

}



if (timeout)

{ dir=this.touch;

  timeout=0.5;

}

---

I don't even care if it works, the first way is too easy, and it is about POINTLESS for us to explain this 100 times over.

how is using % so inefficent? I remember you saying something about % being inefficient in other posts but I'm curious, why are you against the usage of %?

Close this thread, pointless x.X

amen to that brother :)

Did I not make it clear I didn't care what that looked like because it was a stupid pointless script? Look @ my other's... not bad. And really, why the hell would it matter as long as you can read it and it works?? If put:

NPC Code:

---

if (created)

{ for (i=0;i<allplayerscount;i++)

{ with (allplayers[i])

{ if (strequals(#a,Accname))

{ setplayerprop #n,#a (Guild);

}

}

}

}

not quite pretty @ ALL but you can somewhat read it, and it works. If you space things out, there shouldn't be a problem. So if you don't like my scripting style, then stfu and don't read it!
