Following NPCs have their own scripts, too, so you can do the same thing but have it in the character's script -- which may be better, because then it will have the "Done" button that it wouldn't have otherwise. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Overwhelming Infiltrator Member # 4637	written Thursday, July 22 2004 09:26 Profile Homepage #3 What I was thinking is that the player should use the talk icon to talk with the NPC. And when he does it in a specific place or area, new talking nodes would appear. For example. I try to talk to the NPC and receie a message saying we do small talk. But when I try to talk to him inside a certain building, for example, then it would trigger a dialogue (stored in the town's dialogue script). -------------------- Visit the Blades of Avernum Center and the Beta Testing Center -------------- "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."

That's why I was asking if there was a way around this. :) -------------------- Visit the Blades of Avernum Center and the Beta Testing Center -------------- "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."
