More Functions

[axs]

Hello, I wrote this plugin for my own use but of course someone else can also have some purpose for using it.

In the near future I will add a few futures.

This realease functions:
Get/SetScript - Get/Set event script for Creature, Placeable, Module, Area, Door, Store, Trigger, Encounter.
I used the function from NWN engine, works even if currently the event field is empty.

CreateAreaTransitionOnLocation - This is little hack, function will create trap a change it into area transition trigger and use OnAreaTransitionClick script for jump.

(Current version 0.2.6) funcsext.tar.gz

Hm, no reports that I've screwed up.
Oh well, it's working now also with new function:

// Get surface material type from location
int GetSurface(location lLocation);

HOTFIX: Accidentally removed GetAnimation function implementation in public release.

update. Added new functions:

// Get current animation of oTarget
// Returned value isn't equal to nwscript constants, you need to check desired value for your own
int GetAnimation(object oTarget);

Timing Bar display like on rest or trap disarm.
Displayed message is hardcoded, so there is no text on bar called with this function.
Bar can't be canceled by player so you need to script it well.

// Display timing bar for creature and run sScript after delay
void StartTimingBar(object oCreature, int nSeconds, string sScript);

// Hide timing bar and run sScript if specified
void StopTimingBar(object oCreature, string sScript="");

Looks pretty cool. I'll have to check it out.

Hmm, it was very effective day

New update with new functions and few fixes:

// Remove gold from creature without feedback message
// Return: -1 on success, 0 on failure
int RemoveGold(object oCreature, int nGold);

// Remove item from creature inventory without feedback message
// Function will fail if oItem has no possessor
// Return: -1 on success, 0 on failure
int RemoveItem(object oItem);

// Apply nVFX at vPosition for oPC (Only specified PC will see visual effect)
void AreaVisualEffectForPC(object oPC, int nVFX, vector vPosition);

Very nice tool to make many script systems more user-friendly. So although I'm win user thx for creating this plugin, amazing work.

Wow, those are some really nice functions...

[acaos]

These look very nice. Do you have any objection to me integrating them into the main nwnx_funcs plugin?

I have a number of other unreleased ones as well I haven't had time to publicize, like BroadcastProjectileToObject.

Quixsilver: I have some functions as well which will do what you want, but they are some way from being released.

Wow! Those all sounds utterly great :D

Amazing how you managed to find those really cool functions for the linux servers! I have just one question... how can I figure out where the hooks for those functions are in the windows version? Is there a trick to it, or is it really just time spent studying the code?

[scarface]

Very nice functions.

Is there any way to create a function like your AreaVisualEffectForPC() but for sound effects and/or music?

[brilhasti]

I love the idea of subjective visual effects... I'm getting ideas

Is it difficult to port this to Windows?

[Baaleos]

Im getting ideas of Detect Evil, or Detect Good sort of spells from Baldurs Gate 2.

Eg - Evil Characters get a visual Cue above them, that only the caster can see.
