Title: Tired of boring-typical NPCs?
Post by: HolyQuebec on December 22, 2007, 03:07:09 AM
a good idea that i'd like to share with you all.
I haven't see anyone using it, so I might as well share it with you all XD

Npcs. how to make them? usually it's something like

<>Message

same message over and over...

TIME FOR SOME CREATIVITY DOODS!!

create a variable called NPCs(1 variable is needed for all the npcs(villagers and stuff)for the whole game! isn't that great?)

simply do it that way:


<>Var.operation[XXXX NPC],set,Rnd[1-3]
<>Branch if var[XXXX NPC] = 1
<>Message1
<>
<>Else Handler
<>Branch if var[XXXX NPC] = 2
<>Message2
<>
<>Else Handler
<>Message3
<>
<>End
<>
<>End
<>Var.Operation[XXXX NPC] set 0


And Tada!! 3 set of message which are ''displayed'' randomly.
you can do 4,5,6 blabla that way too.

Have fun with that!

credit me if you want LOL :o

These are good, but they are tutorials, not event systems. I'll move them to Tutorials, and thanks for sharing

Seems nice but im picky if mine say the same thing over and over so mine have like 30 different messages to say, sometimes they ask you something or sometimes they play a little game with you.

I tried to make mine like the Animal Crossing chat system.

This sytem works rather well, seeing I have worked with the event for a very long time on his project, It can be kind of hard to use say if you want a diffrent amount of texts made per NPC, but otherwise it works nicely. Good job making it bro! LA RECHERCHE 4 LIFE!
