If some has 1050 gold with your current code they willl get a goldbar, change it to:
CHECKGOLD > 999

You have said the player has already got a gold bar, but where have you checked for it?
#ELSESAY
Im afraid you have already got your gold bar now be on your way please.

There is no @gotgoldbar for the script to load.

[GhettoFx]

gd for ur first attempt if u need any help on npc speak to me i'll help u out

 

[IceSlice]

ty mate. ill ask you when i finished doing db work etc.

 

[Mystickiller]

dont listen to pherrel

flags are old

variables and checkname lists are the future. or the current w/e.

 

[••Ðøåkÿ••]

You need to add flags so the noob cant just get money when he likes...

 

[Far]

checknamelists work exactly the same just require 100's of txt files. why confuse him anymore when hes already having trouble with #IF statements.

 

[MentaL]

LOOK!!!! Heres a simple way of doing it

[@main]
#IF
checkgold x
#ACT
take gold x
goto @1
#ELSEACT
goto @2

or

[@main]
#IF
checknamelist list.txt
#ACT
goto @1
#ELSEACT
goto @2

[@1]
#IF
checkgold x
#ACT
take gold x
goto @x
#ELSEACT
goto @x

personally think there easy enough to get used to.

problem with flags is they can be exploited, and you also need to remembe what flags are used for what, if you arrange your quest folder around properly (i know most major servers do, i did i had around 100 different folders full of txt's back in the day) its alot easier to use / get the hang of / keep track off.

 

[Fire]

flags cant be exploited unless you make a sloppy npc script or keep undocumented notes for your npcs. but since there is a limit on the number of flags namelists are better in some circumstances (ie when you dont want to use mapquest)

anyway the best version of the npc to use is mentals and just fill in the blanks
