Fallout 1 scripting - spawning critters and and their items.

[Sorrow]

How does it work? For example spawning Kenji in Junktown and Blades in laadytum?

talk_p_proc

if ((map_var(5) == 1) and (local_var(7) == 0) and (global_var(GVAR_HIRED_BY_GIZMO) == 0)) then begin

critter_attempt_placement(LVar1, 28283, 0);
set_map_var(5, 2);
end

KENJI.ssl

import variable Killian_ptr;

procedure critter_p_proc
begin
if (tile_distance(tile_num(self_obj), 26281) > 3) then begin
animate_move_obj_to_tile(self_obj, 26281, ANIMATE_WALK);
end
else begin
if (obj_on_screen(self_obj)) then begin
float_msg(self_obj, message_str(SCRIPT_KENJI, 103), FLOAT_MSG_RED);
attack_complex(Killian_ptr, 0, 1, 0, 0, 30000, 0, 0);
end
end
end

Thanks .

Hmm...
I can't find similar procedures for spawning and equipping Blades during their invasion on Boneyard - any idea in which script they are?

[Sorrow]

I've seen them. Am I missing something or they don't have the equipment part?
Is it hardcoded or something?

 

[Wasteland Ghost]

That's because Blades are already placed on level 1 of the map. AddInBlades procedure in map script just moves them to level 0.

Thanks .
