Bringing up an item menu during dialogue when an NPC asks you for a specific item?

I am probably thinking too hard on this, but can you share the steps in doing this? Sort of like in Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (don't remember it being in OoT) when an NPC asks or hints for an item, then a menu pops up mid-dialogue and depending on what you choose will determine how the NPC will react.

    Well, you can show menu screens using the Call Menu Screen step, but it's currently not possible to have the selection there influence the event ...

    Ah shame. Alright, I suppose I'll find some other method for now!

    Well, you can use the Drop interaction start type to start an event when an item is dropped on the game object, maybe that helps :)

    That could work; however, it requires the item to stay in my inventory, so dropping would break the game!

    Maybe give it back to the player after the event?
  • GriffinGriffin
    That seems pretty logical! Not sure why I didn't think about it!

    Actually, where can I access the Drop interaction start type? I suppose I am looking for it in the wrong place.

    In the event interaction component, click on start type and scroll down and you should see it.

    Ah yea. The Scene Wizard. Thanks!

    You can decide in the event interaction if the item dropped on the object should be consumed or not :)

    I wasn't too sure about that click box! So basically, the item stays in my inventory when I drop it?


    What if I wanted the NPC to give a generic reply when you present the wrong item? Is there a way I can call an event for anything other than the required item?

    If you drop the item into the world, it will be removed from the inventory. If you drop it on a game object with an event interaction that's started by Drop, it will only be removed when the consume option is enabled.

    I'll look into adding a new step for selecting something from the inventory in one of the next updates :)

    That'd be great! But for the meantime, by dropping it on a game object, what do you mean specifically? If I just have a game object with that event interaction somewhere in the scene, it won't be activated unless I literally drop it onto it?

    Exactly ... like using drag+drop in battle menus, unless you drop it on the game object (which requires a collider), it wont be used on them :)
