More State Checks... Options

[Sir_Carnifex]

Two questions here...

I know I saw somewhere (but can't remember where) that someone mentioned using this because it includes a lot of states... The problem is WeiDu gives me this message when I use it:

[StateCheck] argument [CD_STATE_NOTVALID] not found in [State.IDS]

The mod still installs, but with warnings. Is this usual when using that state check, or am I using/typing it wrong? This is how I have it:

!StateCheck("character",CD_STATE_NOTVALID)



And the second question. What is the check to determine if it is raining or not? I did find the weather identifiers, but not what check to put in place. Or is there such a thing?
Edit: Found the answer to the weather question.

What parse error do you get? Is it still there after you add the custom state to the ids via the tp2-patching? (Sorry for not pointing that out earlier, btw. I mentioned the custom state but didn't tell you how to implement it. It's from CamDawg, btw., just for the credits.)

To weather: No check, unfortunately, only action. So, if you want a banter only fire if it's raining (or not), you have to set the whether, run a timer of say 5 sec and then trigger the banter. I did that for one of Ajantis's love talks in BG1NPC project (script block slighty adapted to the example):

/* Weather change (no weather) */
IF
InParty(Myself)
(...)
!Detect([ENEMY])
See(Player1)
!StateCheck(Player1,CD_STATE_NOTVALID)
CombatCounter(0)
Global("C#WeatherTalk","GLOBAL",0)
OR(3)
AreaType(OUTDOOR)
AreaType(WEATHER)
AreaType(FOREST)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("C#WeatherTalk","GLOBAL",1)
Weather(NOWEATHER)
RealSetGlobalTimer("C#WeatherTalkTimer1","GLOBAL",5)
MoveToObject(Player1)
END

Have a look in the IESDP which weather can be set: http://iesdp.gibberlings3.net/files/ids/bg2/weather.htm
