- Adding a level trigger
- Open up Sandbox
- Select a spot to add a talking character (via F1)
- Next to the character, select a spot, then use ` (above TAB) to start the console. Type "newent mapmodel -1."
- Select the surrounding box and hit F3. Go to level_trigger and use the slider to pick a number. Remember it. Also, while the menu is still up, go to trigger type and select either 8 (for repeated pop-up text) or 12 (one-time).
- Move the box "into" the character.
- Save your map.
- Beginning scripting
- Re-open the map you saved. Go into edit mode (E) and then hit F6. Go to the bottom of the menu and hit "Load", then "Execute".
- You can also do this externally, outside of Sandbox: go to the Sandbox folder, then mystuff/packages/base. Either create a new .txt doc (make sure to save it as a .cfg) and edit it, or edit an existing one.
- Scripting
- A pop-up menu is known as a gui. Anything modifying the gui would use the gui- keyword (with the proper ending).
- Let's make a character say Hello and ask you
