How to set up "Ask X about Y"
brettbixler
14 Jan 2014, 15:54I am getting confused with this - I see the Ask/Tell tab and tried that, but when I run the game am not seeing the desired result. I want the player to ask a robot about one of the following three things: games, virtual worlds, simulations. Example:
Ask robot about games.
Ask robot about simulations.
The results should be a line of text only.
Thanks in advance.

--------------
"Ask" is a built-in specifically designed Command that uses a Script Dictionary
http://quest5.net/wiki/Command_element (Commands allow the user to type-in their desired input and the game engine tries to match it up with scripting, to act upon it)
