A favour to ask...

[Fallz]

If youv'e read my post's before, you'l know I go on about not been able to write script, so I'm gonna ask this -
Anybody know where I can get a prebuilt scrpt for a recruitable mercenary for F2, anybody got one? or ... well I dont know...
I suppose I'd need a bit of instruction or tutorial but thats not the problem... yet.

The Cheatboy mod for fallout 1 had some generic party member scripts included. You could use them on fallout 2, though you will have to modify any global variable references in the scripts. You will also have to allocate new global variables in fallout 2 for the scripts to work properly.

Here is the link to the mod.

Hey youve been a lot of help recently Corpse! - One question remains, and its a BIG question (well, it is to me cos I cant script!)
...just what the hell are global variables? I mean I messed about with them when I used to play F1, but I usually ended up crashing my pc or... well nothing happened...

Global variables are used to control various elements in the game, such as the status of a quest, npc, town reputations, etc.

Altering a global variable is not advisable unless you know what it is used for; if you want to find out what they do, you can find a list of all global variables under data/data/Vault13.gam on the Master.dat, and a more complete list including definitions under scripts/headers/global.h on your mapper folder.
