SD Flags: in Blades of Avernum
Rushlock Apprentice Member # 12070	written Friday, November 23 2007 14:08 Profile Homepage #0 WARNING! Extremely long winded post below. Years ago I purchased BoE and began creating my own massive Scenario. I was doing more then just fine with Maps, NPCs, Dialog, Story Line, etc...basically I covered the entire gambit from points "A" to "Z," that is, until I was finally confronted with the dreaded "stuff done flags." I just didn't get them. I knew what I wanted to have happen, but didn't know how to make the program listen to me (so to speak). For instance: a generic Mayor (or other NPC) from a generic Town requests that you and your companions venture forth towards a generic Cave in order to kill a specific Enemy (a basic quest). After killing said Enemy, you return to discover a bit of new dialog coming from the Mayor, and, he/she rewards your group with a bit of cash, and/or an interesting item, and/or some rep points, and/or some experience points, and/or some new information regarding where to go next. Sounds simple enough, right? Well...I still don't get it, and that bytes because I would very much like to purchase BoA in order to recreate my previously failed BoE scenario. Like I said above...I know what I want to do, but not how to program it all in. My question here is: is there a walkthough, or other such, available on "stuff done flags" which offers a "very detailed" step-by-step tutorial? One that even someone like me (dazed and confused as I am)could understand? Thanks for listening. -------------------- Hmmmmm... Posts: 1 \| Registered: Friday, November 23 2007 08:00
