Immediately after calling the die procedure, the sprite becomes inactive and the script is terminated.

The engine does not wait until the die procedure is done executing, only until it has a chance to.

So, if you can't have any wait-type commands in the die procedure (say_stop, move_stop, wait, etc) .

Or you could try something like this:

void die(void)
{
script_attach(0);
freeze(1);
say_stop("Aha! I can speak!", 1);
say_stop("Multiple lines!", 1);
unfreeze(1);
kill_this_task();
}
