...



...
Carry on.

[Moldew]

- finished multiple animations and activity in the Sanctum of the Deepdark (sleeping gnomes, new dialogs, bunch of anims, etc.)
- moving on to last area, Menagerie of Telon, starting area for gnomes!

Note to self: Will have to edit various NPCs that have the issue below.

I found a little gotcha. If NPC is in a nonstop animation loop (many of mine are), to stop it when hailing this is the proper way to do it.

Code: Select all

function spawn(Npc)
    AddSpawnCallback(Npc, "sort_shit", 5)
end

function hailed(Npc, Player)
    Stop_Everything(Npc, Player, 10)  -- add in this line, set the pause here
    Hail_Plus(Npc, Player, conversations) -- leave pause blank here
end

function sort_shit(Npc)
    PlayNonCombatAnimation(Npc, 400135) -- sort
    AddSpawnCallback(Npc, "sort_shit", 5)
end

[Moldew]

ALL NPCs now have hail scripts, many have paths/animations, sell what they are supposed to sell, etc. I will continue to tweak things as time goes on, but it's now time to move onto quests!

I'm starting to dig through websites and gather any information regarding quests in Mekalia. Based on what I've found so far, the most important details seem to be : Quest title, quest level, starting NPC and location, ending NPC and location, quest task, rewards, previous and next quest(if it's part of a chain), and whether or not its a repeatable quest. Is there anything else to track down or make note of that would be important in rebuilding the quests?

[Moldew]

I took a little break today and updated the Gnomish Proportional Size Device. If you want one to test/play with, let me know. Enjoy!
