Forcing Skill Checks
« on: August 27, 2011, 02:29:30 am »


               I know it's possible to force skill checks for different things, but neither I nor my friend know how...

Personally, if I could figure out how to
make/force a skill check or a stat check in a dungeon, I'd do it.
Character walks up to a book, it starts a conversation with them.. you
have different options to make a skill check, stat check... and it leads
to other parts of a conversation in the book..





Maybe it's written in draconic, and you need that language token to go
further in the conversation. I'd so make dungeons like that (and I know
such things can be done, seen it done before) But, the sad part is I
don't know how.


That being what my friend wants. So, if someone can give me a script to force a skill/ability check for different things, I would be very thankful.

               basically you would want to put a check in a script with a function, depending upon HOW you want to set up the conversation depends upon which type of script you will make.

You can use the Script Wizard in the conversation to do the check, TextAppearsWhen would check to see if they passed, if they did then a line would become visible, if not, they would see the other line.  (the line with the check should be above the one without the check)

Essentially that's how you do a skill check, force ably.

You can also use the script wizard to check for a host of other things, like a required alignment, race, items in inventory, etc.  If you want a real easy way to script it yourself, use Lilac Soul's Script Generator  That's the easiest way to make simple scripts.

If you need more detail help, let me know.

Do you want the check displayed to the character?

               Thank you and yes, I am indeed wishing to display the check to the character.
