Hi all,

If I want to make sure that a certain script runs whenever the party enters combat, how would I achieve that?

Is there an event I can use?
If so, how do I attach the script to it?

See ya

As far as I can tell, In K2 there is an "OnAttacked" that is used in the scripts section of a UTC file. The script looks like the right one. You will probably need to redefine "k_def_attacked1".

#include "k_inc_switch"
#include "k_inc_debug"

void main()
{
ExecuteScript("k_ai_master", OBJECT_SELF, KOTOR_DEFAULT_EVENT_ON_ATTACKED);
/*
//Shout that I was attacked
SpeakString("GEN_I_WAS_ATTACKED", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
//SpeakString("GEN_COMBAT_ACTIVE", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
if(GetCommandable() && !GN_GetSpawnInCondition(SW_FLAG_AI_OFF))
{
if(!GN_GetIsFighting(OBJECT_SELF))
{
GN_MyPrintString("GENERIC DEBUG *************** Determine Combat Round from On Attacked");
GN_DetermineCombatRound();
//Shout that I was attacked
SpeakString("GEN_I_WAS_ATTACKED", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
//SpeakString("GEN_COMBAT_ACTIVE", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
}
else if(GetCurrentAction() == ACTION_QUEUEEMPTY)
{
GN_MyPrintString("GENERIC DEBUG *************** Determine Combat Round from On Attacked");
GN_DetermineCombatRound();
//Shout that I was attacked
SpeakString("GEN_I_WAS_ATTACKED", TALKVOLUME_SILENT_TALK);
}
}
if(GN_GetSpawnInCondition(SW_FLAG_EVENT_ON_ATTACKE D))
{
SignalEvent(OBJECT_SELF, EventUserDefined(1005));
}
*/
}

Thanks for the hint.

It seems to work but not exactly as I would have wished. The event seems to be fired whenever someone is hit and not as soon as the party enters combat.

I am currently looking deeper into the event handling.
Any ideas where I can get some more infos about it?
