As you can see, these result scripts refer to each quest objective and the quest itself. The last stage #210 do not have any script, because it is flagged as Complete Quest. This means that even if it had a result script, this script wouldn't be processed. I am using stage #210 only to finish the quest. | As you can see, these result scripts refer to each quest objective and the quest itself.

This is next stage after #10: Player has met Amanda and went to Springvale School, following the quest target. This target was set by us on the SpringvaleSchoolDoor01toExteriorREF in Quest Objectives tab, for quest index #10. Now Player enters the school and we want to change the quest stage. Let's go '''SpringvaleSchool01''' interior, activate it in the Render window and double click on '''SpringvaleSchoolDoor01toExteriorREF''' on the list of cell objects. | This is next stage after #10: Player has met Amanda and went to Springvale School, following the quest target.

Click on the icon with a cube and the T letter on the toolbar and draw a cubic object that will cover door's teleport marker. It will be a new base object, and I name it '''aBHSpringvaleSchoolTrigger'''. | In front of the door we will create a [[Creating Primitives|primitive form]], a trigger zone.

=== Result scripts === | |||
Finally, we need some result scripts to manage the quest. The first one will be used when Player agrees to help Amanda. Left click on the aBHTopicAgree and in the Result Script (End) enter the following code: | |||
<pre>setstage aBHQuest 30 | |||
</pre> | |||
Click on the Compile Scripts button to check if the code is correct and to compile it. | |||
Second script is for aBHTopicHaveTeddyBear, when Player has aBHTeddyBear item and meets Amanda: | |||
<pre> | |||
player.removeitem aBHTeddyBear 1 | |||
if (GetStage aBHQuest == 30) | |||
SetObjectiveCompleted aBHQuest 30 1 | |||
else | |||
SetObjectiveCompleted aBHQuest 5 1 | |||
endif | |||
SetObjectiveDisplayed aBHQuest 200 1 | |||
SetStage aBHQuest 200 | |||
</pre> | |||
With this script we take the item from Player, according to the quest stage we mark proper quest objective as completed, and set the final stage. | |||
