The Dink Network

Next, why are there two separate if() statements when one will do if you phrase them like this

void talk(void);

{

return;

if (&story == 1);

{

freeze(1);

\Conversation is in here

&story = 2;

unfreeze(1);

return;

}

}

-------------------------

Well, bdjnk, that's not really true. JonSultar wants to let the person say something when &story = 1 and then change &story to 2. If Dink talks to that person again, the person says nothing. In your script, nothing happens when Dink talks to that person, no matter what happens. You see, if &story = 1, the return; command will be run before the script reaches the check to see if &story = 1 so it doesn't matter. If story is 1 or 2 or 1234, the return; command will be run first. Here's the corrected version of the script:

void talk(void)

{

freeze(1)

if (&story == 1)

{

//Conversation here - you guys even had the comments wrong.

//It has to be // and not \

&story = 2;

//The variable &story is now 2. Of course, this variable has to

//be a global so it has to be declared in Main.c

return;

}

if (&story == 2)

{

return;

}

unfreeze(1)

//It's better to have the freeze(1) and unfreeze(1) like this because

//then it's easier to add things later, otherwise you have to add

//those two commands for each time you want to let the person and Dink

//talk but it's your choice

}
