    How would you go about scripting a bartender?

    I would like to choose a drink through dialogue, meaning once I select what I want in the conversation, I would be given the drink, I would use it, and a certain amount of gold would be taken from me.

    Also is there any way to examine the NWN campains in the toolset?

    Thanks in advance.

    This has been done several times on NWVault. Check for some bartender scripts there.

    Well, you need to tell us what you are able to do. For example, do you have any programming skills?

    If not, then the best bet is to do as Tal says and get one of the ones already done by the community.

    I'll assume you know how to use the converstion and script editors. The script commands that you'll need are: GetPCSpeaker, GetGold, TakeGoldFromCreature, and CreateItemOnObject.


    Assuming you're using standard drink items (ones already created for you), first you need to create a script that gets the object for the PC speaking to the bartender (GetPCSpeaker), checks how much gold he's got (GetGold), takes the price of the drink (TakeGoldFromCreature), and then creates the drink item on the PC (CreateItemOnObject).

    Then, on the conversation line where you select the drink you want, select the script name of the script you created above from the pulldown on the "Actions Taken" tab.

    Simple as that.

    I know all that, but what is the command to actually forces the PC to drink it, but without ending the conversation. I want all of it to take place during the conversation.

    What I have tried as always ended the conversation, while the PC drinks the drink.

    You could, rather than actually create the drink, simulate its effects. Under "other actions" in the dialogue editor, set the PC to do the drinking animation, and set a temporary effect that reduces the PC's int (or wis? I forget) by one.
