it is definitely do-able via conversation.

Conversation approach is almost useless for me, but could work for some situations like roleplaying. So lets see, if we can see this done ehye_khandee :innocent:

Under two hours later, I have 35 lines of nwscript that should do the trick. I'll test it myself tonight and see how it runs, if it works as intended, I'll release it here in this thread tomorrow.

It works off the talk and whisper channels and requires only a short prefix be spoken followed by the number of the spell effect or the SPELL_(constant). Easy enough to keep a short list of your favorite spell numbers next to your desk I figure - doing mouse related selection is out of the question though, text is a FAST interface anyway.


Happy holiday.

UPDATE - my partner in code has agreed that my 35 lines of instruction will do the trick. We are testing this today on ArgentumRegio, subject to successful testing, a release will follow very soon. Stay tuned to this thread for details and PLEASE ADD MORE IDEAS TO OUR COLLECTION. We love these kind of challenges.



Be well. Game on.

It is in, tested a bit (not every spell but it seems to work so far). Here it is, the 'impossible to make in nwscript' script to allow your PCs to remove spells on themselves which they cast themselves. 31 lines of lean, clean code. Enjoy.



It is also on nwvault but not approved there yet so no link supplied at this time.

This is a decent script.  It looks similar to the second half of a little something I've been using in Aenea since the end of May.

You might also want to consider adding a chat-command function to quickly give players a list of the spell IDs for the self-dispelable effects that they currently have active on them.  That way they won't need to keep an out-of-game reference list, especially as they become more experienced with more and more spells available.

nice thread. I was hoping to get a little help with a script that I thought worked already with my module when I had Sherincall create the base mod for me but it has never worked. I need a script/script system so that when Players die they drop all of their gold into a sack and ALSO have a 20% chance to drop 1 randomly selected equipped item EXCEPT for plot items.

I'm not sure if this 'chance' is even possibly or the randomly selected equipment slot either. Much love if you could figure it out for me

this is what the script currently has in it, but again it never seemed to work:

 object oVault = GetLocalObject(GetModule(), "TM_Vault");
    int nDropLevel = GetLocalInt(oVault, "TM_PCDropLevel");
    int bPVP = GetIsPC(GetLastHostileActor(oPC));



    if (d100() < TM_PERCENT_ITEM_DROP_ON_PC_DEATH &&  nDropLevel != DEATH_DROP_NONE)
    {

      if (nDropLevel == DEATH_DROP_PVE && !bPVP)
      {
        int nSlot = Random(NUM_INVENTORY_SLOTS);
        object oItem = GetItemInSlot(nSlot, oPC);
        while (oItem == OBJECT_INVALID)
        {
           nSlot++;
           if (nSlot > NUM_INVENTORY_SLOTS-1) nSlot = 0;
           oItem = GetItemInSlot(nSlot, oPC);
        }
        location lLoc = GetLocation(oLootBag);
        CopyObject(oItem, lLoc, oLootBag);
        DestroyObject(oItem);
      }
    }
    AssignCommand(oLootBag, TakeGoldFromCreature(GetGold(oPC), oPC));

PRR hasn't been converted to use a SQL database as near as I know, but would be a starting point for giving NCP's a memory... use it in a module I'm working on. Contagious diseases can be handled by faction area creature who's function is to infect and dispence disease. Using a custom disease.2da and effect scripts, and a bit to spellhooking. Enter the STD that can't be cured or only cured with the intervention of a quest NPC... wicked I know but rewards those that can show a bit of restaint when it comes to that type interaction with other PC/NPC's. Could easily be used to for generic custom diseases, add a target object to faction disease depensing creature fire a ude for  the creature and zap... bad things happen to your hero or the target depending on ude fired.

Its impossible to do the way I wanted. Your solution is very ugly and not user friendly. Thats for your blustering about.

For me, it wouldn't be such problem to use this, I even remember some spells ID. But for general player this wouldn't be much to use. The conversation option is also not ideal. Only right way is to code it into nwn client. But thanks to try.

Ouch.  I think it's a fine bit of scripting ehye_khandee did, which seems to be what the title of this thread is leaning towards.  If there's no way to be happy about a scripted solution, why ask for something in a "scripting ideas" thread?

Most scripting I know of is of no use to the general player...only to a builder that can use that script to deliver a better playing experience in a module/PW.

And for those wondering, a conversation option can work, as long as there is a call to ClearAllActions(TRUE) right before firing up the conversation (the "TRUE" part drops the PC out of combat so that the conversation can be started).  I just prefer the chat-command version to save on adding multiple scripts to my module.

Ah, he changed the thread name, I noticed just now.

It was "REQUEST FOR NEW IDEAS TO CODE" first.

@Vhaeraun Baenre:
Doesn't look like the whole script, oLootBag and the constants aren't there. Maybe there is an nclude file? This systems seems to need a object called "TM_Vault" somewhere in your mod and on it some variables, which control the behavior of the script. First check, if the constants and the variables needed are set. If you didn't find them, set values per hand for trying it.

This should have nothing to do with not doing its job, but the while loop in the script seems to be an infinite loop, if the PC dying is naked. That needs to be redone.

The initial work I'd done on sorting out NPC
memory/attitudes was based mostly on the on perception event of the NPC
combined with NWNx2, and MySQL.  Probably each involved NPC remembering
every UID they see, then running it twice for each on perceive event would be
too much.  But I still like the idea, and as there are better coders out
there than I, it's worth a mention.  This
could give rise to reactions and reputation, among other things.



As far as the diseases go, I entirely enjoyed some of the contagious disease
events that occurred in WoW.  Also it could give some fun opportunities to
low chance random encounters or plagues, demon ****houses, whatever. 
Having the custom diseases spread in a variety of ways, and transparently, I thought
it would be a particularly evil way to torment people.

I will certainly put a link to this post into my notes in
the event I ever actually get the time to sit down and script this in the
future.  Thanks for the feedback!

I think you underestimate other PLAYERS, they can well use cheat sheets or even memorize a handful of spell numbers to use (their frequent use ones). This is consistent with the rest of guile's posts, er, ShaDoOoW that is. You might well recall advice I gave prior in this thread.

"In many things, the difference between possible and impossible, is in the approach. -GM_ODA"

The approach I choose leads to the realm of possible. You should try it sometime.

Here's what we use on HG to do this. It's a lot slicker, but it takes a lot more code, and some plugins to boot. It's done via custom SIMTools (chat) command, and takes a lot more types of input (you can cancel AoEs, weapon props, etc). I'm also including our listing function, which solves the whole issue of pcs having to look up / write their favorites. Code is acaos'.

First, the listing command (players do this by speaking '!effects'):

            } else if (sCText == "effects") {
                DeleteLocalString(oCPC, "FKY_CHAT_LOCAL_CTEXT");

Nice stuff going on here.

As for suggestions, well . . .

I've always wanted an 'introduction' system:

I'm playing Glokk, a half-orc barbarian.
You're playing Tilla, a halfling cleric.
He's playing Shaelitha, an elven ranger.

I look at Tilla, Her name, though, on mouseover shows only a physical descriptor: 'A female halfling'. Likewise, Shaelitha has the name 'a male elf'. My own shows as 'a male half-orc'.

Now, I overhear Tilla telling Shaelitha her name. So, I type !intro add Tilla, and a targeting cursor comes up. I click Tilla. Now, her name shows up as Tilla to me. I could get the wrong name, if she'd lied to Shaelitha. Or, I could give her a name of my choosing, like 'an annoying halfling', if I never got her name.
Entering a new name would overwrite whatever name I'd previously given.

Now, I'm SURE this can't be done that way, because the same name is seen once set, by everyone, right?

So. It'd still be cool to keep track of who you've met, or whatnot, somehow. Suppose you could chat !known, and get a list of those in your perception range that you've set up on your 'known' list, with names for them you've entered. You could then at least RP that you don't know the displayed name of a PC until you've 'met them' or at least given them a name of your own choosing to keep track.

Boy, it sounds more confusing than it is, I think.

Thoughts?

Back to the original question. It seems to me on a practical basis there can be too much scripting going on in some situations. For instance the not being able to drink with a helm on. Sure it would be a bit impractical to eat but what about a straw for drinking or an open faced helm? Anyway there is expendiency and reality in these games. So there is a spectrum where people go to one extreme or the other but like a bell curve most are in the middle.



One area I think some rudimentary work has been done in in is healing. Like in AR you don't get your hp's back right away with bandages but after a brief delay, perhaps you could vary that somewhat, or, mercy me, actually have bandages fail, or heal slowly over time like a regeneration spell. So, for instance, bear jerky gives you 1-2 hp/rd for 10 rds.

Some things I like about AR are the tracking, though I suppose you could have it recognise you rown tracks, though you know it was you that made them, it could say you passed by here or maybe if the PC was wounded when they made the track. There was a battle here and a bit of blood. Oh well stuff like that so that a ranger could say: 'Two hobbits lay here. They were bound, they crawled off...their bounds were cut.'

Nice stuff going on here.

As for suggestions, well . . .

I've always wanted an 'introduction' system:

I'm playing Glokk, a half-orc barbarian.
You're playing Tilla, a halfling cleric.
He's playing Shaelitha, an elven ranger.

I look at Tilla, Her name, though, on mouseover shows only a physical descriptor: 'A female halfling'. Likewise, Shaelitha has the name 'a male elf'. My own shows as 'a male half-orc'.

Now, I overhear Tilla telling Shaelitha her name. So, I type !intro add Tilla, and a targeting cursor comes up. I click Tilla. Now, her name shows up as Tilla to me. I could get the wrong name, if she'd lied to Shaelitha. Or, I could give her a name of my choosing, like 'an annoying halfling', if I never got her name.
Entering a new name would overwrite whatever name I'd previously given.

Now, I'm SURE this can't be done that way, because the same name is seen once set, by everyone, right?

So. It'd still be cool to keep track of who you've met, or whatnot, somehow. Suppose you could chat !known, and get a list of those in your perception range that you've set up on your 'known' list, with names for them you've entered. You could then at least RP that you don't know the displayed name of a PC until you've 'met them' or at least given them a name of your own choosing to keep track.

Boy, it sounds more confusing than it is, I think.

Thoughts?

I think there was a nwnx plugin that did something like this.

2) I have yet to encounter any underground emerging/burrowing/re-emerging foes like vine crawlers. It would be similar to a teleporting foe but much slower animation with shorter reappearance distances. There could be such a variety of special attacks assigned (like paralyze, poison, daze, called shot type damages, etc.) and strategy to master them, it seems a totally unexplored avenue.

We use a system that shows a burrowing out of the ground creature and reburrowing for things like anhkegs and bullettes and such like.

It has been done on the vault as well with some easy scripts.

It's called nwnx_names, by virusman, and yes, it displays different names to different clients:

How about a nice script that will take you from one location to another without having to sit around doing nothing in a wagon for 42 turns?

FP!

absolutely totally spot on!
lol

42 turns? hmmmm...I think I have to check my scripts....

...
...
string sName =  GetPCName(oPC)
if sName == "FesterPot"
{
wait(42 turns);
WaitSomeMore ();
PretendToActuallyDoActions;
NowJumpToOriginalPointHeStartedAtand RepeatProcess;

else // For All other players
{
JumpToLocation(iLoc); // immediately go to spot player wants

I'm still watching and hoping more gems will come down this way soon. So post your thoughts please!



Be well. Game on.

Well I sent you a pm about it but you never responded....


how about a script to make spell resistance % based instead of DC based like 2nd edition
