DMFI 1.09, adding Custom Skills

[Legacy_Evelath]

               Hello Everyone,

I am attempting to add my own custom skills to the DMFI 1.09 system that runs d20 roll checks whenever a player types the particular skill. (for example: "Bluff" would initiate a d20 roll for bluff, modified by the particular modifier.) 

DMFI 1.09 System

I've modified "dmfi_execute" and added the line:

case 105: iNum = 1; iSide = 20; sAbility="Nature Check, "; iMod = GetSkillRank(SKILL_NATURE, oUser); break;

I've also modified "dmfi_plychat_exe" and added:

    else if ((FindSubString(sLCEmote, "nature") != -1))
        SetLocalInt(oPC, "dmfi_univ_int", 105);

The particular skill is also included in the .2da file for the module.  I've added it to the conversation for the dicebag, and have had no luck.

When a player types: "nature"; they get a 5d0 dice roll.  Not sure where that is coming from, and when I run the dicebag it doesn't work either.  :/

I've tried to figure it out, so much appreciation to anyone who can assist!

Thanks!

//// Here some with animal empathy

int iAnimalEmp = TestStringAgainstPattern("**/A.E.**",sSpoke);

if(iAnimalEmp==TRUE)
{
SetLocalInt(oSpeaker, "dmfi_univ_int", 71);
string sNSpoke = StringReplace(sSpoke,"/a.e.","");
string sNSpoke2 = StringReplace(sNSpoke,"/A.E.","");
SetPCChatMessage("");
SetLocalString(oSpeaker, "dmfi_univ_conv", "pc_dicebag");
ExecuteScript("dmfi_execute", oSpeaker);
        return;
}

///////end
It run through the DoDiceBagFunction function in the dmfi_execute script of DMFI
hope this helps you get in the right direction.

               I was able to figure it all out.  If anyone is interested post here and I'll explain the full process. 

Essentially I was missing the declaration of my SKILL_* Constants.  

I'm still trying to figure out the actual dicebag conversation; however the main piece: Typing *nature* rolls a 1d20 + Modifier for the Nature knowledge skill, is working.

               The OnActivate for DMFI 1.09 Sets up some locals  Pre the module event hook.  So you might want to start your search for the missing piece in NW_S3_ActItem01.  this it the script that is ran everytime an item is activated, Before the Event Hook.

               Thanks for that; I included my constant script; and made a few edits to the conversation.  It's working at about 90%.

For some reason, one of my skills isn't being picked up by the conversation; and when I use a diceroll, it returns to a main-menu that doesn't include my "Skill Rolls (New Skills)" category.

I'll take a closer look later this evening.  Thanks a ton for the mention of that file, it helped me find the main culprit of the issue.
