Problem with dialog options off

[steptoe]

Hi..  Problem with dialog options off

The below works but with a slight problem.

With 2 options left it does not 'return' but goes straight to option 4.

Code: ags

// Dialog script file
@S  // Dialog startup entry point
Chris: We need to pull together.
Chris: What do you have in your pockets Dopey?
Richy: Let me see...
return

@1
Richy: A penknife
Chris: That could prove handy. Can I borrow it?
Richy: Sure
  cChris.AddInventory(iknife);
option-off 1 
return

@2
Richy: A shopping reciept.
Chris: Paper. Mm, could be useful to start a fire!
Richy: A fire??
Chris: One never knows
  cChris.AddInventory(ipaper);
option-off 2
return

@3
  if (player.HasInventory(iskunk))
  {
Richy: I've got some skunk.
Chris: I have some skunk already.
option-off 3

  }
  else
Chris: Can I have some?
Richy: What for? I've only an ounce left!
Chris: I have an idea.
Richy: Ok but you owe me Del.
Chris: Cheers mate
Richy: Yeh
  cChris.AddInventory(iskunk);
option-off 3
return

@4
Chris: Thanks
Richy: Ok
stop

{
Richy: I've got some skunk.
Chris: I have some skunk already.
  }
  else 
{
Chris: Can I have some?
Richy: What for? I've only an ounce left!
Chris: I have an idea.
Richy: Ok but you owe me Del.
Chris: Cheers mate
Richy: Yeh
  cChris.AddInventory(iskunk);
}
option-off 3
return

I have included what you said but no avail, so far

Code: ags

// Dialog script file
@S  // Dialog startup entry point

Chris: We need to pull together.
Chris: What do you have in your pockets Dopey?
Richy: Let me see...
return

@1
Richy: A penknife
Chris: That could prove handy. Can I borrow it?
Richy: Sure
  cChris.AddInventory(iknife);
option-off 1 

return
@2
Richy: A shopping reciept.
Chris: Paper. Mm, could be useful to start a fire!
Richy: A fire??
Chris: One never knows
  cChris.AddInventory(ipaper);
option-off 2 
return

@3
  if (cChris.HasInventory(iskunk))
  {


Richy: Skunk. But I've only got a little left.
Chris: That's ok I have some.
option-off-forever 3

 }
  else
	{
Chris: Can I have some?
Richy: What for: I've only an ounce left!
Chris: I have an idea.
Richy: Ok but you owe me Del.
Chris: Cheers mate
Richy: Yeh
  cChris.AddInventory(iskunk,6);
	}
option-off-forever 3 
return


@4
Chris: Cheers.
Richy: Hope the things can help us!
stop

Thanks anyhow

In dialog system the problem is that you can't mix regular scripting comands and dialog syntax within curly braces. Try this instead:

Code: ags

@3
  if (player.HasInventory(iskunk))  
  {
    cRichy.say("I've got some skunk.");
    cChris.say("I have some skunk already.");
  }
  else 
  {
    cChris.say("Can I have some?");
    cRichy.say("What for? I've only an ounce left!");
    cChris,say("I have an idea.");
    cRichy,say("Ok but you owe me Del.");
    cChris.say("Cheers mate");
    cRichy.say("Yeh");
    cChris.AddInventory(iskunk);
  }
option-off 3
return

Hi Adrian

after correcting a few errors of your code it still does not work as it should..

I shall persevere.

Hi Adrian

Oh yeah, sorry for the mistakes about say instead of Say and the messy indenting ect.

The thing is when you have only two options left and you choose one of them, the last one will be triggered automatically every time. This is normal behaviour and I don't know if there's a way to change that.

Hi Adrian

I made a 'Dummy' option and it works now.

Something to remember.

cheers

You can do this:

Code: ags

  game.show_single_dialog_option = 1;

That sounds handy LeKhris

cheers
