Hi All,

Does anybody know if it is possible to briefly stop "shouts" to the CHAT window by somehow using the "UIRadialNode_Mouse_Action_Quickchat_Hide" XML command (or some other), but bypassing the manual contextmenu.xml method?

That is, I want to be able to stop (or hide) "shouts" from reaching the CHAT window without having to use the manual way of doing so that involves right-clicking on the CHAT window and removing the "star" image next to "Include Shouts" from the list.

It seems the UIRadialNode command requires use within the context menu, which in turn must be within the GUI it applies to. Is there any other command I can use that does the same thing, but makes a direct call to the CHAT window from my own GUI?

Thanks in advance,
Lance.

// This function is used to send a chat message, as if spoken by a PC or by the server.
// Except for 'CHAT_MODE_SERVER', oSender must be a PC or nothing will occur.
// oSpeaker - the PC who will speak, OBJECT_INVALID if channel is CHAT_MODE_SERVER. This must be a valid PC object for CHAT_MODE_PARTY to work.
// oReceiver - if nChannel is CHAT_MODE_TELL or CHAT_MODE_SERVER, then this must be the PC who will be receiving the message.
// nMode - CHAT_MODE const indicating the type of message to be sent. Only the CHAT_MODE_* values provided are accepted.

// bInvokeCallback = the module's OnChat script will be invoked to filter this message, if this is TRUE.
//   WARNING: use extreme caution if setting bInvokeCallback to TRUE  from within the OnChat handler itself --

not sure if you can use this, Lance; but there's a shiny new 2009 function someone at Obsidian added.

The tip for the OnChat module event says:
"Specifies a script to run when any chat message is spoken."


I imagine it might be possible to set a local from your GUI and catch it with the OnChat event before the [SHOUT] gets to chat ... err auh

Hi KevL,

That was an interesting find. Unfortunately, I was trying to avoid NPC shouts from the window (not PC) and so I don't think this will catch them. I decided to simply disable the SHOUT manually for the time being.

Cheers,
Lance

as i thought about it more, it was misleading of me to put the constants & functions here.

The pt. of it is there's an OnChat event ...

 

 

might be something to investigate for the future

 

edit: but yeh there doesn't appear to be any 'GetChatType()' function ...

Ah, I see what you mean ... I suspect it would only detect PC "Chat" though, even so.

edit2: nor any function that actually stops a message from going through (whatever its origin) -- so, uh, anyone have any idea what the OnChat event can be used for?

 

I mean, wouldn't it be there to stop the 'naughty bits' ...?


if so, then how

guess you're right : the event appears to be OnPlayerChat in NwN1

Oh well,

If you (or anybody else reading) ever manages it, let me know.

Cheers,
