Long story short, I set up a simple script whose sole function is to reference two (newly made by me) global variables. I need to access those variables and change them through dialogue options. I can read the variables through conditions directly (GetGlobalVariable), but I am having trouble figuring out how to change them.

The script for the globals (mostly comments!):
Okay, so I can get the dialogue fragment to find the LGBM01Script by using

LGBM01Script property TourDone Auto

At least, I think it's finding it, because that's all that compiles. Here's what I am trying:

;BEGIN FRAGMENT CODE - Do not edit anything between this and the end comment;NEXT FRAGMENT INDEX 1Scriptname LGBM_TIF__0200B09F Extends TopicInfo Hidden;END FRAGMENT CODE - Do not edit anything between this and the begin commentLGBM01Script property TourDone autoget tourdone if Tourdone > 1		return	else Tourdone=1		return	endif

I'm getting an EOF error at "if" , and I think I need some sort of event, but I don't know what to put in. I just want to set Tourdone to 1 if it hasn't been incremented yet. I tried jamming in an OnInit, but no joy (I honestly don't know much about events, but I thought that would tick off ANYthing). I feel like there's a simple step I am skipping, but after hours of looking at the wiki and other posts, I'm still drawing a blank.

Note: I've been able to just set the variable in another dialogue fragment with

(getOwningQuest() as LGBM01Script).TourDone.setValue(3)

but when I try to use that in the CK editor, I do this:
Confusion reigns.

Bump?

The missing EOF error happens when the parser finds code that should be within an Event Or Function. So yes you're right.

The Fragment scripts are auto-generated, and they will place your fragment code within Function blocks for you.
The Function blocks will be called at the correct time; eg. at the start of a line of dialog.
So it just looks like you need to enter your code in the fragment window within the CK, and not append it to the script itself.

First, click on the Properties window of the fragment and Add a new property. GlobalVariable pTourDone

;This is your fragment code.If pTourDone.getValue() < 1  pTourDone.setValue(1)EndIf

You will rarely need to manually edit the fragment script.

Gaagh! Forgot about the auto-generated function blocks! Thanks for the reminder, I really need to stop skull-sweating things out and let the CK do things for me when I can get away with it - I'm obviously not very good at this, and any and all shortcuts I can find I need to take.


Yay, much much cleaner, and we DO like neatness! Thanks tunaisafish!!
