dialog dependancies?

[lilinuyasha]

How would i make an option in one dialog (or a seperate dialog entirely) be available only after a seperate dialog has been chosen?

[m0ds]

In the current dialog you would use "option-on" or to affect another dialog you would need to call a run script command in both dialogs, one to set the option and one to read whether the option should be on or not. I think. Someone with some ACTUAL AGS technical knowledge will hopefully clear this up for you

[lilinuyasha]

Yes, that makes sense. Thanks! now if i can figure out how exactly to script phrase my other dialog activities, we'll be fine

Put at least one space at the beginning of the line to indicate to AGS that you're using a normal script command, not a dialog command, then use Dialog.SetOptionState():

Example:

Code: ags

...
@3
player: Do you sell weapons?
Merchant: Yes, of course.
option-off 3                                   // dialog command
  dMerchantBuy.SetOptionState(3, eOptionOn);   // script command, indented
return
...

I needed an option in a completely differnt conversation to open. i figured it out. thanks guys!

And I told you exactly how to do that
