I'm glad those scripts were workable! You should make up the special merchant or even a weird NPC that has a dialog that can sell you a grenade (subtracting gold via scripting). Then remove the auto-replenishing line from the 'byebye' scripts. That w...  [Read More]

I agree that's a pretty easy solution. Then if the fight is over sooner, you can talk to the creature. :p Anyway you should be able to use the OBJECT_SELF shortcut instead of the GetObjectByTag function... it's faster, shorter, and more generic. A...  [Read More]

Ok. Let's try using the heartbeat event instead then... Try this for your Spawn script: #include "k_inc_generic" #include "k_inc_debug" void main() { GN_SetSpawnInCondition( SW_FLAG_EVENT_ON_HEARTBEAT); GN_SetDayNightPresence(...  [Read More]

For fine tuning, you may need to use the DelayCommand function on the CreateObject function. This will help synchronize the visual effect with the appearane of the creature. Likewise, you could do the same with the DestroyObject functon if you use a...  [Read More]
