Help on alternative choices in dialogue

[Groovejet]

I've seen that in Blades of Avernum scenarios there are dialogues where you have to give your opinion about something and that question is just asked once. May someone tell me how is this done or is there a place where I can find a tutorial on dialogue?

 

Thanks

Do this with the condition and action parts of the dialogue script. It would look something like this:

 

Code:

begintalknode 1;state = 1;personality = 1;nextstate = 2;condition = get_flag(0,0) == 0;question = "Person name";text1 = "Yes or no?";begintalknode 2;state = 2;personality = 1;nextstate = 1;question = "Yes.";text1 = "You just said yes.";action = SET_SDF 0 0 1;begintalknode 3;state = 2;personality = 1;nextstate = 1;question = "No.";text1 = "You just said no.";action = SET_SDF 0 0 2;

Thanks, I was also wondering you can you force the end of a dialogue. I remember there was an option for that in Blades of Exile, but I can't find it on Blades of Avernum.

Yes. Either

 

action = END_TALK;

 

or

 

code =

// whatever

end();

break;
