EQEmulator Forums - Creating a new NPC

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to make a new npc in Halas and am having some trouble getting her to respond to hails etc.

I added her to the database, and spawn her on entering the zone.

I made a script file for her but it's not working.

Her name is Sabrina nightingale, and the script file is called Sabrina_Nightingale.pl

here it is:

Code:

## Sabrina_Nightingale.pl

##

## Buffer NPC.  This character will allow the player to get all spells scribed for the players

## current level



sub EVENT_SAY{

        my $spells = quest::saylink("spells");

        

        if($text=~/hail/i){

                plugin::Whisper("Why hello there $name!  I have heard many great things about you!  I am new in town

                        and specialise in $spells.  If you're interested I can teach you what I know.");

        }

        

        if($text=~/spells/i){

                plugin::Whisper("Great...  just give me a moment to gather what spells I can for you.");

                quest::emote("flips through the pages of her spell book...");

                quest::pause(10):

                plugin::Whisper("Ok!  found all the spells I can teach you....");

                plugin::scribespells():

        }

}

Am I missing something? I thought I could just write a file with the name of the npc for it to work

Thanks for any help here :)

EDIT: I found the problem.... typos!
