I don't know why the script is getting changed on you, but you could try the following and see if it helps you...


In the state that has JoinParty() add
ChangeAIScript("script_name",OVERRIDE) //replace script_name with your script's name.

I think that this will ensure that your script is properly assigned.

I tried this Action already, but it still doesn´t work.
I also created a new CRE and new Scripts and Dialogs, but the Problem still exists.
I use a Vanilla-BGT Installation, with no Mods, just the Textpacks and some Bugfixes.

Well, you would need to reinsure it by ActionOverride()

So it would go like this:

ActionOverride("DV",ChangeAIScript("script_name",OVERRIDE))

Where the "DV" is the creatures Script Name(editable with .cre editors like Near Infinity), inside the quotemarks.

Okay, I tried these:

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN 1-2
	SAY ~Mir gehts gut. Kann ich mich dir anschließen?~
		IF ~~ THEN REPLY ~Ja, klar.~ DO ~SetGlobal("##dbjoined","GLOBAL",1) JoinParty() ActionOverride("##db",ChangeAIScript("##db",OVERRIDE))~ EXIT
		IF ~~ THEN REPLY ~Ne du, grad nicht.~ EXIT
END

Still doesn't work.
This is freakin, I´m very sure that my code match the codes in the tuts and compiling works without any problems.
I don't know what's going wrong.
That's bad I can't mod anything while my NSC has not a script...

Ermmm... did you append the appropriate 2da files in the tp2?

[Arren]

Sorry, did you mean this?

APPEND ~pdialog.2da~
~##db ##dbP ##dbJ ##dbD ##db25P ##db25J ##db25D ##db25~
UNLESS ~##db~

APPEND ~interdia.2da~
~##db ##dbB ##db25B~
UNLESS ~##db~

If not, then no, I only append this 2DAs. Which should I also append?
(Sorry, it´s my first time as a BG-Modder, I don´t know exactly what you mean...)

If all else fails attach your work in progress here, so that other people might have a closer look at it.

Okay, that´s a good idea^^
The file contains the NPC I created.
If somebody could take a look at him and maybe find the error, I would be very happy.

Not sure what you are doing, but this works for me. Even when I delete the "Change AI Script" action from the dialogue.

I added a simple block to the override script to check whether the script is run.

IF
	InParty(Myself)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
		DisplayString(Myself,1234)
END

[Arren]

Argh, this is curious(for me...)
Maybe their`s something with the Installation, huh?
I think I try a complete new-one, then I will look.
Thanks @all
(If a few more people could try, if it works for them, it would be perfect!Thanks!)

You guys seem to be testing on BGT while I tested on vanilla ToB.
I'd say, there is something in the area script of AR0015 (candlekeep prologue), that messes with your override script.
Could be the HP adjustment, that Ascension64 did come up with.

/Edit:
If you give your NPC at least 2 XP, he should not be affected.

BÄM!
THANKS Taimon and all other of course also.
After I give my NPC 20 XP, it now works perfectly and he has his script.
Thanks a lot!
But what WAS exactly the problem? sorry, but I don´t get it...

[Taimon]

BGT does some magic to ensure that your players get the correct amount of HP on startup and in one particular case it needs to check something via script. (It uses the override script slot to do this.)
The whole HP adjustment process is only done if your player has 0 or 1 XP.
