Talk:Simple Companion Tutorial

Thanks for the tutorial Mightylink, it looks pretty nice and thorough. There are a few things that need to be done to wiki-fy it, though. As this is a wiki, no pages are allowed to have by-lines so the credits section would need to be removed. It would also be good to section the article using headers. There are other goodies on that page, including how to link to internal wiki pages, that are good to know. Again, thanks and welcome to the wiki!--Haama 11:51, 30 March 2008 (EDT)

I removed the whole credit section, along with the byline notice Haama put up. Haama already explained it well enough, I don't have to do that again. And I'd like to add that a companion tutorial is most welcome, thank you!

Ya sorry im still new to wiki and cs, im very surprised I even made that tutorial and wondering why more advanced users havent done so already, it was quite easy to make after i figured out how to use quest variables. I would of killed for that tutorial but like they say if you want it done right you gata do it yourself. Now others dont need to struggle like I did :P I'm also gana change the part about quest priority, I didnt know how it worked till now.

Please help!

I did everything exactly as you did in the tutorial, planning to change the name of the NPC and relocate her in a small new cave, surrounded by baddies. I also was planning to use the inventory sharing thing that you said about. however, every time I get to the part where you type code into the result script box and hit compile, I get a bunch of errors! they all say: trying to access local variable 1 in script 'AAveroniascript'-- variable not found continue? yes/no/yes to all.

Please help!!!! just breaking into the NPC section of the CS. did the basic NPC tutorial you have a link to. understood it fully. made a couple of test NPC's. I am semi-proficient. I had not been exposed to questing or dialouge, but I did everything as you dictated and meticulously checked and re-checked it. Is there something different with the post Shivering Isles CS? I know the lip syncing thing is supposed to be broke but that shouldn't affect the stuff done in this tutorial. I am very frustrated right now as I have spent 2:00 (home from school) to 10:00 (10 minutes ago) trying to get this to work.

<Mightylink> You had the same trouble as me when I first started :P You use the quest name not the script name.

set questname.variablename to 1
