Conversation Nodes

[Legacy_Devari]

               Hey peeps, having a little trouble with conversations and scripting, now I am not 100% sure if its possible but I figure i'll ask just in case, see I wish to use one script on the ActionsTabs for multiple conversation choices. So basically the thing is if a player clicks Choice A or Choice B or Choice C they execute the same script, but in the script I want to be able to define the differences.

I've tried using GetPCChatMessage to see if that would help at all, I didn't think it would  and I was right. So I was wondering is there a way to get that the conversation node so I can use that as a check to what choice the player did.

This is so I dont have to create a seperate script for each relatable item in the menu..

Cheers

               You need to use NWNX and the nwnx_events plugin, to get these functions:

   int GetCurrentNodeType();
   int GetCurrentNodeID();
   int GetCurrentAbsoluteNodeID();

It's been released for both linux and windows, but as far as I know only the linux plugin offers the above functions. Linkage

               There is a Branch of the nwnx svn, called Events_Update

http://nwn.virusman....s/events_update

I dont know if it works, but it contains conversation node code.

               Cheers both of you, i'll have a look at NWNX and see if I can made head or tail of the event node stuff, cheers.
