Hey there, sweetie,
I seem to be doing something wrong. Maybe you can help? Here's what I did.
I made stackable apples and set it at 1.
Then in the script, where it says return tag of item, I put in "Apple"
Where it says return number of items, I put "10" because I want the player to collect 10 apples.
Where it says return xp reward, I put "50".
And where it says return gold reward, I put "20"
Just so you know, I replaced the entire return statement with the word apple or the numbers mentioned, with quotations of around it of course.
Then down where it says int nCheck = 0, nStack; I changed the 0 to 1, since we only need one stack of 10 apples.
Then down where it says // requirement is fulfilled
nRequiredAmount = 0; I changed the 0 to 10 since I just want 10 apples.
Naturally the npc isnt responding like I want.
Please help...hehe. I'm hopeless.

This should work for you. It's compiled and tested just in case. Make sure to not add it to the last node of the conversation or things won't work (GetPCSpeaker will be an invalid object because the convo is over so the script won't know who to take the items from).
edit: Tried to make the code look decent instead of the stupid mishmash this forum style gives it. Bah.
edit again: added XP and gold reward
