I am trying to trigger the death (or seeming death) of an NPC during an event triggered by a second NPC. In short, if NPC oDog crosses my trigger, it causes NPC oLady to scream and fall over dead (yes, killing dear old Mrs. Schmooples is a bad thing). I have been able to create the effect using the OWNER_DIES action in conversation, but I have not yet found an action that can do it in a script.

Here's the trigger script:

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// scared_to_death trigger script
// Owner: Bill Hoyt
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
/*

    Dog Scares Mrs. Schmooples to death

    Note: this script redirects all events not handled into trigger_core.

*/
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

#include "events_h"
#include "global_objects_h"
#include "plot_h"
#include "utility_h"
#include "plt_who_let_the_dog_out"
object oPC = GetHero();
object oDog = UT_GetNearestCreatureByTag(oPC, "marabi1", 0);
object oLady = UT_GetNearestCreatureByTag(oPC, "mrs_schmooples", 0);

void main ()
{
    event ev = GetCurrentEvent();
    int nEventType = GetEventType(ev);
    int bEventHandled = FALSE;
    switch (nEventType)
    {
        case EVENT_TYPE_ENTER:
        {
            object oCreature = GetEventCreator(ev);
            if(oCreature == oDog)
            {
                WR_SetPlotFlag (PLT_WHO_LET_THE_DOG_OUT,
                    SCARED_MRS_SCHMOOPLES, TRUE);
            // Mrs. Schmooples joins the bleedin' choir invisibile
            //  MISSING LINES HERE
            }
         }
         break;
    }
    //If this event wasn't handled by this script, let the core script try
    if (!bEventHandled)
    {
        HandleEvent(ev, RESOURCE_SCRIPT_TRIGGER_CORE);
    }
}
            }
            break;
        }
         break;
// end script

Can anyone fill in the missing lines for me?  I would eventually like to convert it to a (I hope amusing) cutscene, but for now, I'm just trying to get the plot operational.  Thanks.

Is the dog tag correct?

Edit: Missed the question in the end
You can add the required actions in the plot script. I'll put in a more detailed response when I get home.
As an example, you can check how it is done (killing someone through script) in the Sacred Ashes quest where the PC can kill Genitivi in the cutscene.

 I have taken a swift look at the function list and maybe this one can be useful:

KillCreature
(effect_death_h)
Kills a creature.

Description:
Kills a creature by creating and applying a death effect. - Does
nothing if applied to an already dead creature. - Does nothing on immortal or
plot flagged creatures

void KillCreature (
object oVictim,
object oKiller = OBJECT_INVALID,
int nAbilityId = 0,
int bProcessInline = FALSE,
int nDamage = 0
)

Parameters:

oTarget
- The unfortunate creature to die.

oKiller
- The killer (OBJECT_INVALID for creatures killed by plot).

nAbilityId
- If used from an ability script, pass in stEvent.nAbility.

Next time I suggest to use the search tool in the script editor. I just typed kill, et voilà

Yeah, I got hung up by EffectDeath and FeignEffectDeath (thus my aside about seeming death). I guess I should have been more aggressive in finding different ways to kill off old Mrs. Schmooples.

I'll give it a try, but it looks like just what the mortician ordered.

Just curious: know of an easy way to make her scream?


Edit: O yeah, that worked. She's dead. Poor old bag.  Thanks again.
