Do you remember Joy dancing in the Pheonix Tail Inn at Crossroad Keep? This is what they put in her heartbeat slot:

//31_joy_dance_hb

// Joy dances.

// TDE 9/11/06

void main()
{
// Joy only dances in the Inn
if ( GetTag(GetArea(OBJECT_SELF)) != "2101_ck_inn")
return;
		
if (GetLocalInt(GetModule(),"Stop Ambient Life"))

I use an entertainer heartbeat script that allows dancing, singing, and playing the lute, flute, or drum in my Harvest of Chaos: King's Festiuval + Queen's Harvest campaign.

Here is the script:

// bb_entertainer_hb
// by Brendan Bellina
// November, 2008
// Updated March, 2009 to add sing type and ability for musicians and dancers to sing

// Generic entertainer heartbeat script.

// Inspired by entertainer heartbeat scripts from OC 2100_Crossroad_Keep_A2
// 21_flutewoman_hb
// 21_guitarman_hb
// 31_joy_dance_hb

// Set entertainer heartbeat script to this script.
// Set local variable BB_ENTERTAINMENT_TYPE on entertainer to indicate type of entertainment:
// flute
// lute
// dance
// drum
// sing
// Set local int variable BB_ENTERTAINMENT_OFF to 1 to prevent the entertainer from using animations
// Requires waypoint wp_entertainers_face near entertainer
// For flute requires sound object snd_flute_1 near entertainer (play sound Flute)
// For lute requires sound object snd_lute_1 near entertainer (play sound Lute)
// For drum requires sound object snd_drum_1 near entertainer (play sound bb_drum)
// For vocalist requires conversation (see DoCall function comments) (must be barkstrings)
// To have a musician or dancer also sing, just create a conversation 00_bark_tag or
// assign a conversation variable bb_barkConv (see DoCall function comments)
// To stop all entertainers in the module from using animations set the module int variable BB_NO_ENTERTAINMENT to 1

void DoCall(object oSpeaker)
{
// if bb_barkConv is specified then use that
// else if ConversationPrefix is specified use ConversationPrefix + SpeakerTag
// else use "00_bark_" + SpeakerTag
// The reason the NPC's conversation is not used is because it is reserved for
// non-barking.
string sConversation = GetLocalString(oSpeaker, "bb_barkConv");
if (sConversation == "")
{
string sConversationPrefix = GetLocalString(oSpeaker, "ConversationPrefix");
if (sConversationPrefix == "")
sConversationPrefix = "00_bark_";

sConversation = sConversationPrefix + GetTag(oSpeaker);
}
AssignCommand(oSpeaker, SpeakOneLinerConversation(sConversation));
}

Give them some drinks.

I understand you may want to to this your own way Tsongo but I used Uncle FB's scripts for this.


My inn's are lively at night with music and dancing. By day the musicians and dancers are in the market chatting or sleeping. If you use his guard scripts for the dancers and play with the code I imagine you could also have your dancers change from night to day clothes (just in case semin nudity looks out of place in your market square

I know that sooo well

Also it's not all or nothing. You can have a dancer or musician stay in the same room all day. They will stay in one place if you put all of the waypoints in one place or move around as you wish. Dancing or playing to suit. the whole city does not have to use the script, just the dancers if thats all you want.

Shoot at their feet?

[PJ156]

It's easier than that. When you load up npc_control you get a set of bluprint with all the scripts attached and a set of waypoints.

So you grab the blueprint bard001 and place it in you area. Change the name to bardXXX (you make up the XXX) Pull in each of the six waypoints and renumber them to XXX matching your bard (just change the number). You can customise your bard to look as you want to.

Check the bards scripts you will see that the variables are allows a series of options. in simple terms you need to put the right number under wake, Act 1, Act2, dinner, sleep and midnight. Play flute is 14 for instance.

Then you are done. Put the waypoints where you want your man to play.

Only thing with instruments is you cant go from one to another without a break. so act1 your man can drum and act2 but if you want to drum in act1 then switch to flute you need to have him do something else for the next act then switch to flute.

Be careful to give each a discrete number if you start mixing up waypoint and npc numbers things get odd. Happened to me in Caravan Club that a cow kept appearing in the bar in the evening. I have a pick somewhere

PJ

[PJ156]

Have a care with using the 0 (script hidden function) it's a bit flaky and the npc does not always show up for work. if it's an ambient then that is no issue but if they are plot then use area transistions to send them to a holding area. That is far more stable.

I use my script in my Harvest of Chaos: King's Festival + Queen's Harvest campaign. I don't have any problem with them holding instruments. They may need a level of bard to do so. I suggest you download my campaign and take a look in the initial area of the first module.

UncleFB's scripts - some of which are based on mine - do more but are a bit more complex. If all you need is someone to stand and perform then my script should be sufficient.

Some advice about animating your city though. Don't go overboard. You can spend an enormous amount of time on it and the reality is that most players are just going to be running through on the way to the next dungeon entrance anyway. Some animation is good but set some reasonable limits on the time you spend on it. Just my 2 cents.

Regards

[Kaldor Silverwand]

Happy building. Glad you got it working.
