    that can happen from either not entering the command correctly [entered wrong] in the console
    or
    having an old, out-of-date version of the script file

    fyi - it is a * not a ?

    from ed import *
    from co8 import *

    btw - the * is an asterisk character, <shift>+<8>

    I shoulda been

    from ed import *

    not

    from co8 import *

    to get loc() going.

    note you have to do this again if you reload a save (though it is till there, just hit the up arrow rather than typing it in anew).

    My mistake. In that case it was a typo.

    Oh yah, also the latest version of ed.py should be added to data\scr for the Co8 5.0.1 mods and updates from the new version of ToEEWB. This is for ed.py to be version 6 instead of being an older version like version 4.

    Have you got a Co8.py file in your scr folder?

    ok not sure if this is somthing i did wrong in the console of if it is a problem with the new NPC itself. i put in game.obj_create(#,x,y) # being the number of the npc in proto, x and y being the cordinates i had. he didnt show up what i got was his named followed by a real long string of numbers in the console. Korroc(1338968101122). any thoughts on what that is?

    That is what game.obj_create returns in the console. It is a handle for the object created, so you can manipulate the object in the console or script later. The fact that you got it means the object was created in the game, maybe just not where you expected it to be.

    Ah, I see the problem now. game.obj_create takes a proto number and a location, not coordinates. You need to use
    Code:
    game.obj_create(#, location_from_axis( x, y ))
    In case anyone was wondering, location_from_axis derives a location the game can recognize from a set of coordinates on the x,y axis, and location_to_axis derives a set of coordinates on the x,y axis from a game location.

    Yeah, Co8.py does not ship with KotB, nor does ed.py. You have to manually put both of them in the scr directory for KotB. You have to have both of them in there for from Co8 import * to work.

    Hey lord_greywolf, If you're just trying to test an NPC, you can use.

    create xxxxx (using the protoID) and it will place the NPC where you're lead character is standing. It's simpler.

    KotB is not shipping just yet ;) But the second starter pack thingy does come with ed.py, I couldn't live without it.

    well importing from ed works for me so ill stick to that.

    now as to the other well create and the # works, sort of, it brought something just not what i was expecting so thats got to be from me putting in a wrong number in the npc discription. instead of my dwarf i got a door lol. i tried the game.obj_create(#,location_from_axis(x,y)) and got the string error again. oh well back to the drawing board, i have got to figure out what some of those numbers in the collums mean so i know which ones to use :sadblinky

    one of these days ill figure out how to do it right lol to bad none of the tutorials tell you which collums you really need to fill in and with what.
