I created a custom innkeeper for my hotel. I can rent a bed from her and the money is removed...all that is fine until I close the conversation after renting and she should say...'I will show you to your room' and she should walk me there. She doesn't, she just says 'farewell'.

Everything else works fine, the bed ownership is changed for 24 hours, I have rented the room etc...perfectly fine....except for this. Not sure where I am going wrong here. This is what I did....

*Created my NPC, gave her the following factions...

-JobMerchant Faction (rank 0)
-JobInnkeeper faction (rank 0)
-JobRentroom faction (rank 0)

*Placed an xmarker where I want her to stand during the day, gave it a unique ref 'SEErinRentRef'

*Made a sandbox AI package and gave it to her....ref the xmarker, radius 100

*Gave her the 'RentRoomScript'

*Set ownership of the bed I wanted rented to her.

*Opened script 'properties' and selected the bed.


I must have missed something here. Any help is much appreciated, thanks.

Is there some sort of quest that has to do with renting a room? Just a thought. I have also tried to do something fairly simple and was confounded by it not working, thinking there must be something small that I missed. Maybe it is the same type of thing.

there is something odd about rent a room ... but I can't quite remember what. Maybe it is a quest, with a Scene that forces the Inkeeper to do the walk-to-room bit?

Have a scratch around ... I'm sure I remember some slightly odd mechanism that makes it work.

Did you also select the "WIFunctionsScript Property, which is needed to call the "ShowPlayerRoom function"? (WIFunctionsScript Property WI Auto {Pointer to WIFunctionsScript attached to WI quest} )

That was the missing piece. She is now showing me to my room. Thanks!
