Kiling NPC with a quest

Is there a way to KILL an NPC with a quest command?

Like quest::killself?
or perhaps set ist curent hp to 0?
or deal leathal damage?

in otherwords I need NPC to DIE as a result of event, with dieing animation, faction hits to anyone on its agro list, corpse fading animation etc (i know I can just depop them but thats not the same thing)

thanks =)

I think you're looking for $npc->Kill().

Example:

Code:

sub EVENT_SAY {

        if ($text=~/kill yourself/i) {

                quest::say("As you wish, oh great one");

                $npc->Kill();

        }

}

Found here: QuestObjects (Wiki).

Something interesting about the quest system is that, basically, the quest:: commands are wrappers for the commands listed in the above Wiki article. For example, you can make an NPC say something using $npc->Say(), although that one in particular takes an additional option (format).

ahh thank you so much!
i will try it out. I was just over that list of comands you mentioned, unfortunately looking at that list and knowing how to use it is 2 diffirent things =)

speicaly when it comes to special "format" set up, as you said =)

there is another thing there which perhaps you could help me with.
I am looking at:

GetEquipmentColor(material_slot)
GetEquipmentMaterial(material_slot)
GetEquipment(material_slot)

could you tell me to properly use this?
I read that on one of the server they got npcs customly dressed by randomly assigning them material of armor by slot. I would like to try to do the same thing, just not sure how to write up this script.
