Morrowind Dialogue Scripting T_T

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 1:11 am

I am having some... issues with dialogue in Morrowind. I have an NPC who has a linked topic (@...#) in his greeting. When I press on the linked topic his response comes up correctly. I added a "choice" function using "Choice '...' 1" and on the desired response I used "function choice = 1" (in the boxes). When I press on the choice all that happens is his original response to the topic comes up with the choice function again. This happens whenever I press on the choice and the only way to exit the dialogue is to exit the game. If anyone knows what I am doing wrong please tell me... =P

The dialog associated with the response of the Choice needs to be above the Choice itself in the dialog list.

The game scans dialog from the top of the list to the bottom. The first dialog that meets the criteria gets displayed.
I suggest reading through a dialog tutorial, as this is common info that gets explained in detail. :)

Thank you so much! I really should read the basic tutorials... I only read ones about the result box or the functions because I thought that was where the problem was. I never would have thought about that. Thanks again. It works perfectly.
