this item questsdisplay pages on screen with response
in one section on live if you read that page you get an offer quest
if you then accept the quest the next page is displayed, if you decline the quest the book is closed

Code: Select all

function ReadStory1(Item, Player)
    offerquest (Item, Player,474)
	-- if accepted then 
    conversation = CreateConversation()
	AddConversationOption(conversation, "Continue Story 1","ContStory1")
	AddConversationOption(conversation, "Close")
	StartDialogConversation(conversation, 2, Item, Player, " ")
    
end

so in the above is there a way to wait for a response? from the offer quest?

Accepted function of the quest script.

As you need an item I would store it in a temp variable then retrieve it in the accepted function or clear it in the declined function of the quest script.

ok so i did the offer quest with temp variable, and that portioan works what i did notice though is that none of the "close" respnse seem to be working

from what i understand that if i do not put a 2nd parameter (to the function) that it will close the dialog

but none of the close options are closing the dialog, i also just noticed that if i press close first then the other option does not work either

Code: Select all

Ayr'Dal!")

Yea, that seemed to have broken at some point for conversations that use an item. A workaround for now is to use the lua function CloseItemConversation(). this can just be put into the AddOption like so

Code: Select all

AddConversationOption(conversation, "Close", "CloseItemConversation")
