Talk, fight, talk, fight, talk problem

[Trex]

Hi all.

I'm trying to put together a big duel which is in 4 parts. You fight, talk, then fight, then talk etc.

I have this this script in the utc's ScriptDamaged :

void main() {
   int nFlag = IntToFloat( GetCurrentHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) ) < ( 0.1 * GetMaxHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) );
   if( nFlag && !GetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF , 10 ) ) {
      SetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF, 10, TRUE );
      SetMinOneHP( OBJECT_SELF, FALSE );

CancelCombat(OBJECT_SELF);
        SurrenderToEnemies();
        ChangeToStandardFaction(OBJECT_SELF, STANDARD_FACTION_NEUTRAL);

        object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("syyth");
  location lMe=GetLocation(GetFirstPC());
    ActionDoCommand(SetCommandable(TRUE,oNPC));
  AssignCommand (oNPC, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC()));
   }
  
}

Which works fine, but only for the first round. After the first mid-fight conversation has happened, my baddie just keeps fighting and never turns to neutral and talks to you a second time.

How can I make this work?

Well, it only runs if local boolean 10 is not set. Here it's set.
Maybe if you want a second happening use another boolean number instead, and repeat the script, with different damage value...

I see.

So, in theory, if I add a script into the actual conversation to reset the local boolean to false each time, it should work?

EDIT : SOLUTION FOUND

Add a little to the end of the script to reset it (using a seperate script doesn't really work)

void main() {
   int nFlag = IntToFloat( GetCurrentHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) ) < ( 0.1 * GetMaxHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) );
   if( nFlag && !GetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF , 10 ) ) {
      SetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF, 10, TRUE );
      SetMinOneHP( OBJECT_SELF, FALSE );

CancelCombat(OBJECT_SELF);
        SurrenderToEnemies();
        ChangeToStandardFaction(OBJECT_SELF, STANDARD_FACTION_NEUTRAL);

        object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("syyth");
  location lMe=GetLocation(GetFirstPC());
    ActionDoCommand(SetCommandable(TRUE,oNPC));
  AssignCommand (oNPC, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC()));
  DelayCommand(0.5, SetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF, 10, FALSE ));
   }
  
}

Works, but not really dependant on HP. And the NPC can be killed before that time. I was more thinking (not using 2 scripts);

void main() {
   int nFlag = IntToFloat( GetCurrentHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) ) < ( 0.5 * GetMaxHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) );
   int nFlag2 = IntToFloat( GetCurrentHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) ) < ( 0.1 * GetMaxHitPoints( OBJECT_SELF ) );
   if( nFlag && !GetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF , 10 ) ) {
      SetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF, 10, TRUE );

      CancelCombat(OBJECT_SELF);
        SurrenderToEnemies();
        ChangeToStandardFaction(OBJECT_SELF, STANDARD_FACTION_NEUTRAL);

        object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("syyth");
  location lMe=GetLocation(GetFirstPC());
    ActionDoCommand(SetCommandable(TRUE,oNPC));
  AssignCommand (oNPC, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC()));
   }
  
    if( nFlag2 && !GetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF , 15 ) ) {
      SetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF, 15, TRUE );
      SetMinOneHP( OBJECT_SELF, FALSE );

CancelCombat(OBJECT_SELF);
        SurrenderToEnemies();
        ChangeToStandardFaction(OBJECT_SELF, STANDARD_FACTION_NEUTRAL);

        object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("syyth");
  location lMe=GetLocation(GetFirstPC());
    ActionDoCommand(SetCommandable(TRUE,oNPC));
  AssignCommand (oNPC, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC()));
  DelayCommand(0.5, SetLocalBoolean( OBJECT_SELF, 10, FALSE ));
   }
}
