Char. won't anim. after conversation!

[j-Hed]

Hello!

I want a character to walk out of the screen after you have asked the last question in the Dialog/conversation.

I have tried to edit the dialog script and made a "run-script" function in dialog_request.

The "edit script" in dialog looks like this:

// dialog script file
@S  // dialog startup entry point
return
@1  // option 1
KIDDY: Ok!
run-script 3    <------ HERE IT SHOULD CALL DIALOG_REQUEST
stop

Here is the dialog_request:

function dialog_request(int value) {
  if (value == 3) {
  SetCharacterView(KIDDY,7);
AnimateCharacterEx(KIDDY, 2, 0, 0, 1, 1);
Wait(800); <-------I TRIED WITHOUT THIS TOO
  }   
}
}

Can anybody help I would really appreciate it, THANK YOU!

Did you mean he animates but doesn't walk away or he doesn't even animate?

If you just want him to walk away, instead of usingAnimateCharacter[EX](), you can just use one of the MoveCharacter() functions (use the one you needed to) for example in the dialog request:

function dialog_request(int value) {
if (value == 3) {
MoveCharacterBlocking (KIDDY, 360, 100, 1);
}    
}

which will move the character to the right of the screen.
(and note that there's an extra } in your posted code, probably there're some misplacements).

The character won't even animate, and now I tried yours too (much better idea, thanks):

function dialog_request(int value) {
if (value == 3) {
MoveCharacterBlocking (KIDDY, 360, 100, 1);
}
}

But when the conversation ends just a split second the load-corsor comes up but nothing else happens.

Did you put the dialog_request in the global script? Put a Display() command to check whether is it called at all:

function dialog_request(int value) {
   Display("dialog_request() is called! Value=%d", value);
   if (value == 3) {
      MoveCharacterBlocking (KIDDY, 360, 100, 1);
   }
}
