Need help with disabling interaction...

[Samuel]

in my game,  My character talks to an NPC and says somthing like I'm going to axe you,  my character changes his view to an axing animation,  runs a loop and then the npc changes his view to his dying animation.  this all works fine,  my problem is that you can still look and talk to the NPC after he has died.  I dont want to delete him after he dies,  is there some way I can disable interacting with him?

Just use some variables.

at the beginning of the room script:

int axed;

and in the interaction:

if (axed == 0) {
  // axing stuff goes here
  axed = 1;
} else {
  // after death axing stuff goes here
}

oh right.... oops.  I feel stupid now.  thanks for you're help!
