Simple question (I hope) about making a custom token

[Legacy_Skhroll]

               Hi everyone, I'm not what you can call a "script person", and I wanted to make something that I suspect it's rather simple, but I just can't figure it out.

What I want is to make a custom token, like those that you can put in conversations like, <class> or <race> but that tells the age a player chose for his character...

Quick example:

NPC- How old are you, exactly?
PC- I'm X years old

Is it possible? Any help is greatly appreciated

               use the following commands (i'll attach a script to this thread later - if you'd rather wait a hour or two until I get back)...



GetAge(object oCreature)  ... is what you use to get the age of the PC



SetCustomToken(int nCustomTokenNumber, string sTokenValue) ... is what you use to set a token.

               Try placing something like this in the text appears when spot for the "im x years old line'

int StartingConditional()
{
    SetCustomToken(987,IntToString(GetAge(GetPCSpeaker())));
    return TRUE;
}

Then you would use < CUSTOM987>   for the x in your convo. 

im < CUSTOM987> years old line'

                Hey there man 

First of all, thank you for your time and help.

Now, I've been trying those commands that you provided but I just can't seem to make it work. '>
So, if you could post a script I would be sincerely thankful.

                hello Lightfoot8 I've done what you said, but when I try to compile the script it says:
"pc_age_test.nss(3): ERROR: PARSING VARIABLE LIST"   line 3 is the "int StartingConditional()"
What does this error mean?
Eitherway, thank you for helping out '>

EDIT: nevermind, fixed it. Thank you so much for your help.
 ehye Khandee too, thank you.

               You did put it in the "TextAppearsWhen" and not the "ActionsTaken"?
