Speech tree with timer , looping which doesnt break
Posted: Wed Dec 19, 2007 4:57 pm
Fallout tactics hasn’t speech tree like Fallout and Fallout 2.
Until now there are some known ways to have speech tree in Fallout tactics.The first is to use Zones to select your answer, the second is to drag items from your inventory(Yes and No entity.) and the third is to use the world text(I downloaded the mission with the Mad Max and his dog.}
There is an other way to have speech tree in Fallout tactics different than the previous ways.
With this way you don’t need to choose zones,have items in your inventory or use the world text.
The only you need is to use the timer and select your answer with the help of the timer.
The advantage of this way is that you can have dialogue only with the click of your
mouse on the NPC character.
For examble: You meet someone in a place and he asks your help.
You have two or more possible answers which you can choose with the timer.The trigger works like this:When you talk to the NPC a timer appears on the screen(Timer=0 sec at the start.)
If you want to choose the first answer you will have to talk again to NPC when the timer is 0-3 sec ,second 4-6 sec and the third 7-9 sec.
(I believe that three seconds are enough to choose your answer.Someone else will need less or more than three seconds to choose his answer.)
When you choose your answer the NPC responds with his answer.
Each different choise you do you will have different reactions from the NPC character.
After you can see the speech at the dialogue screen of Falout tactics so you will always know what each NPC told to you and which was your answer.(Fallout tactics has this positive option to keep all the Dialogues.)For each different speech of the NPC you need one mission variable.

No, honestly: There just aren't much people interested in Fallout Tactics - and even fewer in modding. Maybe you should post your stuff at
