Maybe I'm just being blind, but I can't for the life of me find a script command to make the party leave the current town. The manual says that it can be done, but I can't figure it out. Any ideas? Thanks, - Erik. Posts: 33 | Registered: Thursday, December 13 2001 08:00 |

There might be a better way, but I see change_outdoor_location(). The manual says that's for long distance, though; I haven't seen another one. -------------------- -Newtfeet Posts: 151 | Registered: Saturday, July 13 2002 07:00 |

quote:Alas, I've already tried that. I'm not sure what change_outdoor_location() does exactly, but when I tried calling it from within a special encounter within a town the party didn't move at all. Thanks for the suggestion, though... Posts: 33 | Registered: Thursday, December 13 2001 08:00 |

Try this: move_to_new_town(which_town, x_coordinate,y_coordinate); -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power! Posts: 3726 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

If you want a script to boot the party out of the town and into the outdoors, then just create a really tiny town (ie. a small town with its boundaries being extremely constraining) and use a move_to_new_town(); to send the party there. (Be sure to properly identify this town's exit coordinates!) -------------------- * Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

change_outdoor_location() probably changes the coordinates the party will be at when they leave town. I can't be sure of this though, since I have Windows. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

If it works like its BoE equivalent does, then yes. (This kind of node is used to connect the caves in VotDT to the surface.) -------------------- * Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

There is no call to actually instantly boot the party out of a town. The best you can do is teleport them to a location at which they are then forced to walk out. - Jeff -------------------- Official Board Admin spidweb@spiderwebsoftware.com Posts: 960 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |
