I just wanted it for a very simple "he/she" text in the append_string thing.

I don't want to have a pre-made party, cause that eliminates my monster changes level along with party script.

Anyway, thanks for all of your help. If there isn't a call I'll have to go without.

I've nearly finished the scripting for town 10 (Baron Effek's dungeon).

But it's slow going, and I haven't started on the dialogue yet.

Another silly question: (i'm full of them today)

Is there a call to make the game check what graphic picture a character is.

eg (something like this).

if (get_graph_picure(char) == number) {
SOME SCRIPT
}

RWG FAQ in Richard White Games
Agent
Member # 4506

57. Is Richard Black another name for Richard White?

That answer is classified by the neddle/ferret shock troops association.

58. Are Richard Black and Richard White the only two colours used?

That answer is classified by the neddle/ferret shock troops association.

59. Can Richard White really travel through time?

Yes. It's a special skill of his. How he does it still baffles all the bungling fools over in the department of Galactic Temporal investigations.

Yes, the player will most certainly notice if you kill and then revive their party. :P

You'll just have to find some way to make it not stand out too badly.

Hmm. I might make the dialog box say that you were tortured then.

Will this keep ALL of their items? (Because When I sometimes die, not all of my items remain(if three of my chars die on the same spot!).

I thought about that, but it wouldn't work with custom items from other scenarios.

Last thing I ate was 2 plates of suppper (I was hungry), and I was still wearing my Dance gear still, and it proves my devotion to either Richard White or Richard black cause my dance gear's all black. Ofcourse, RW's got more of a following, so I thought of him first.

I have, but I was just wondering if there was a "nicer" way to do it, rather than just that.

Guys,

I'm pretty sure that Ive asked this question before (and got some helpful answers), but I can't seem to find it anywhere, so I'll ask again:

I want a bit where my party is split up (eg. the Vahnatai prisony place in A3), so that only one person can go through this secret passage at a time. What script would be best for me to use? (and why?)

AND

I want the party's items to be "confiscated" from them when they enter the town, yet they can find them again before they leave. (undamaged etc).

How do I do this?

I use a crate in the final dungeon in ETS to let the party get past the magical field, But I'm pretty sure that you can make something different. And if you do, I'd love to know how.

Thanks!

- Archmagus Micael

P.S. Here's the code that I use to check for the crate:
beginstate 22;
run_animation_sound(34);
if (get_flag(30,1) == 0) {
message_dialog("You step on this mat, and hear a small clicking noise. A crate falls from above, onto the rune in front of you.","");
set_flag(30,1,1);}
put_object_on_space(17,49,2);
end();
break;

beginstate 25;
//Checks if object is on block. If it is, allows you to pass.
if (is_object_on_space(23,53,2) == 1) {
block_entry(0);
}

Nice idea.

It would be nice if it was true, but I can make an educated guess which says it isn't.

Guys,

I want to make a custom monster which only blasts the party with the "Fireblast" Mage spell. How do I do this? I assume it's sometething to do with specifically saying what spells it can cast and how often or something, but I don't quite get how to do that...

:(
