well, if you want an example:

Code: Select all

level_trigger_1 = [showgui npc1-1]
newgui npc1-1 [
guitext "Yo, what's up, dawg?"
guibar
guibutton "Uh, hi?" [cleargui]
guibutton "(Ignore him and go away)" [cleargui]
] "Weird Guy"

okay thank you for all your help, now is there any way to have a conversation with them instead of just one gui would i just add a new gui like this:

Code: Select all

    level_trigger_1 = [showgui npc1-1]
    newgui npc1-1 [
    guitext "Yo, what's up, dawg?"
    guibar
    guibutton "Uh, hi?" [showgui npc2-2]
    guibutton "(Ignore him and go away)" [cleargui]
    ] "Weird Guy"

    level_trigger_1 = [showgui npc2-2]
    newgui npc1-2 [
    guitext "Yo, what's up, dawg?"
    guibar
    guibutton "uhh hello.." [cleargui]
    guibutton "Walk away" [cleargui]
    ] "Weird Guy"

would that work?

yes, it would be the same, but you wouldn't need to put npc2-2 in there; it's easier to put npc1-2 (person 1, menu 2) in there. Got it?
Also, you wouldn't need a second "level_trigger_1" to pull it up.
With corrections, here's what I think you're looking for:

Code: Select all

    level_trigger_1 = [showgui npc1-1]
    newgui npc1-1 [
    guitext "Yo, what's up, dawg?"
    guibar
    guibutton "Uh, hi?" [showgui npc1-2]
    guibutton "(Ignore him and go away)" [cleargui]
    ] "Weird Guy"

    newgui npc1-2 [
    guitext "Seriously, how're you doing?"
    guibar
    guibutton "I'm doing fine, thanks." [showgui npc1-3]
    guibutton "Walk away" [echo "Hmph. The nerve of some people." ; cleargui]
    ] "Weird Guy"

    newgui npc1-3 [
    guitext "(BLAH BLAH BLAH)
    guibar
    guibutton "(BLAH BLAH 1) [action]
    guibutton "(BLAH BLAH 2) [action]
    ] "Weird Guy"

I changed a little bit of it, a guy isn't gonna say the same thing twice now, is he?
I also continued it, put in some placeholder kind of things.
