Remembering a State Check, Dialogues at Rest Time Options

[Sir_Carnifex]

I can't seem to find the state check for initiating a dialogue during rest. I vaguely recall seeing something like PartyAtRest at one time, but I don't remember where. I tried searching through the IESDP but came up with nothing. Perhaps I was looking in the wrong place. Anyway, if someone can point me in the right direction, that'd be great.

Thanks!

Dialogues at rest (when the player hits the "rest" button) are scripted via the "npcnameD.bcs". The "D" for dream dialogues is actually a script, not a dialogue file, although it is assigned to the pdialog in the tp2. Just create (and compile) a d.baf named as you assigne it via tp2, and put a trigger script block with the dialogue conditions into it. Then the dialogue will be triggered upon rest, if the conditions are met.

Have a look at the romance coding tutorial here, too: Romance Authoring Tutorial, under "Sleep Scripts"

Note: For this, do not use the "splitted" method introduced in "How to ensure your banters always run when you want them to. " (for all other NPC-initiated dialogues, I recommend it very much as it helps to prevent stuttering).
