Hello! So I’m trying to make a Wizard NPC for my game Jawks! A ROBLXO Puzzle game, When the Player Picks the “I want the Potion!” then a potion will spawn!

Is This Possible?

Yes it’s possible, you would do something like this:

local Dialog = yourpathtothedialog
Dialog.DialogChoiceSelected:Connect(function(Player,Choice)
if Choice.Name == “TheNameOfTheDialog” then
–give the potion to the player
end
end)

So something like this?

local SpeedPotion = game.ReplicatedStorage.SpeedPotion

local Dialog = script.Parent.Parent
Dialog.DialogChoiceSelected:Connect(function(Player,Choice)
	if Choice.Name == "GivePotion" then
		local SpeedPotionClone = SpeedPotion:Clone()
		SpeedPotionClone.Name = "Speed Potion"
		SpeedPotionClone.Parent = game.Workspace
		SpeedPotionClone.Position = Vector3.new(-10.47, 27, -255.549)
	else
		if Choice.Name == "DontGivePotion" then
			return
		end
	end
end)

Potion Giver isn't working

I made it a local script and everything but it didn’t work, the potion doesn’t generate into the world at all, and the script for some reason doesn’t work

#6

have you placed the script into starterplayerscripts

Yes, this is possible.

How I would go about this:

  1. Adding 2 bool values to the GUI
  2. Scripting the corresponding bool value to make it true when the player clicks either of the option GUIs
  3. Then making a script to do what ever I want when the corresponding bool value is true.

( You could also make an event, but I personally don’t know how to do this. )

As for the script that does stuff for when the bool value is true, you could make it:

  • Play a sound effect
  • Give a potion / tool
  • Enable particle effects
  • Play an animation
    etc.

Hope this helps. :>

Oh no! I was using the ROBLOX Dialog prompt and stuff! I know how to do this with UI anyway!

I know it’s been a year but along with the if Choice.Name == "GivePotion" then you should put an and statement for if Choice.Name == "GivePotion" and Player == game.Players.LocalPlayer then otherwise the event will fire if ANYONE in the server selects that dialog.
