! ! Jimmy's Script. Derived from the adventurer script, but modified to ! to handle the one character. ! ! DESCRIPTION: Jimmy is a young Dwarf. He lives near a small town ! and works at Joe's pub. He is the player's friend and want's to ! go have some fun. His TEXT block shows the following keywords: ! ! 0 : Hello Hi! What are you up to? Going on a trip? ! 1 : Default Have I shown you my weapons? I'm dying to use them! ! 2 : Weapons In the chest over there.. Let's go do something.. ! 3 : Join What are we waiting for.. Let's get the weapons.. ! 4 : Chest I keep the weapons in the chest. We could get them! ! 5 : Get If we go on a quest, we should get them. ! 6 : Quest You know.. Go kill some monsters or something.. ! 7 : King I heard he was missing! That might be a worthy quest! ! 8 : Queen We could go talk to her in the Castle! ! 9 : Castle Where the King and the Queen live! ! 10 : Trip You're not thinking of leaving without me, are you? ! 11 : AdventurIt's a good time of the year to go look for adventure! ! 12 : Job Joe can find another bus boy. Let's go questing! ! 13 : Joe You know I work at Joe's Pub during the summer! ! 14 : Pub Yes! ! 15 : Ship I don't have one, but the Queen might lend us one! ! ! - V0 is TRUE when we've talked before. ! - V1 is TRUE if we've JOINED the group ! ! (c) DC Software, 1992 ! !------------------------------------------------------------------------! :@TALK ! START HERE WHEN YOU 'TALK' TO THIS CHARACTER ! !------------------------------------------------------------------------! ! First, say hello.. ! if npc.picture >= 0 then viewpcx(npc); endif; if NPC.V0 > 0 then ! We've spoken before, so don't give the standard greeting.. writeln( "Hello again! I thought you were gone.." ); else ! First time we talk, so give the standard greeting.. if not dotext( "Hello" ) then ! If the text block didn't have one, the following would be used.. writeln( "Hello ", player.name, ". What are you up to?" ); endif; endif; NPC.V0 = 1; ! This variable indicates we've talked before (see above) :CHAT L3 = getstr("Name","Job","Join","Bye"); if L3 = -1 goto CSTOP; ! Handle JOIN differently.. if L3 = 2 then if group.size = 6 then writeln( "Hey! Your party is full! There's no place for me!" ); goto CHAT; endif; if npc.level > player.level + 4 then ! Normal behaviour would be to decline until adventurer has more ! experience, but Jimmy is a friend, so it doesn't apply writeln( "Ok. But you are inexperienced, so let me handle the tough" ); writeln( "problems. You'd better take the better armor too.." ); endif; if npc.level < player.level - 6 then ! Normal behaviour would be to decline because the adventurer ! has too much experience. Encounters tend to be more serious ! and inexperienced members get killed easily. Again, since ! Jimmy is a friend, we wave the restriction.. writeln( "You mean it?! I don't have a lot of experience, but I learn" ); writeln( "very fast.. Thanks!" ); endif; if NOT dotext( "join" ) then writeln( "What are we waiting for.. Let's get the weapons!" ); endif; ! Now we might do some animation, so we restore the graphics ! ! to allow the player to see it ! if npc.picture >= 0 then paint(window); ! Assumes the picture fits in the window ! endif; !
