Hi, trying to get the above to work. I have an animal named 'Bob'. I've ticked the animal attribute to 'True'. Every time the adventurer tries to talk to/speak to her, I get an error message.

Error running script: Function not found: 'Print'

The tutorial notes mention an attribute 'Playercannottalkto' or 'talktoanimals'. Do I need to set that to either the 'player' object, or 'Bob' object. Or is there something I've missed.

Where did you get the libary from? The version on the Quest docs site is pretty old. The most recent version is here:
https://github.com/ThePix/quest/wiki/Conversations:-Library

ETA: In fact I have now edited the Quest docs so the old versions of my libraries weill no longer be available.

It still does not appear to be working Pixie. I've set the animal attribute on the 'Bob' object to be true. I noticed that the speak attribute was in grey, so I've left that alone because it looks like the following code that needs to be pasted is already there:

if (GetBoolean(char, "animal") and not GetBoolean(game.pov, "talktoanimals")) { msg ("You spend a few minutes talking to " + GetDisplayName(object) + ", but something seems to be missing from the conversation... like any indication the creature understands a word you say.") return (true) } return (false)

Or do I still need to over-ride the Function 'Playercannottalkto'

Looks like the formatting on the tutorial page got messed up for that code, it is possible that is the issue. That code needs to go into the PlayerCannotTalkTo function; it does need to be overriden, and the capitalisation is important.

Cannot find 'PlayerCannotTalkTo' Function. I've opened up 'Show Library Elements' and entered the function name in the search box at the top , but nothings coming up.

Ah... I now realise I have a new version of the library, which has PlayerCannotTalkToin it, but I had not uploaded it, as it requires Quest 5.7. I did, however, update the tutorial, and hence the confusion.

In the hope that Quest 5.7 is out soon, I have now uploaded the new version, so if you change to that, it might work. And you might find new bugs...

Ok. Uploaded new library file. Located relevant Function 'PlayerCannotTalkTo'. Copied it into game. Pasted relevant script. Parameters 'c' changed to 'char' (because first time I tried it, it threw an error message: Unknown Object or Variable). Added a gagstring to the 'Bob' object (animal in this case).
Still throws an error message: Error running script: Error compiling expression

My bad (again). The script for PlayerCannotTalkTo should be this (with c as the parameter):

if (GetBoolean(c, "animal") and not GetBoolean(game.pov, "talktoanimals")) {
  msg ("You spend a few minutes talking to " + GetDisplayName(c) + ", but something seems to be missing from the conversation... like any indication the creature understands a word you say.")
  return (true)
}
return (false)

Guide has been updated, and I have tested this to make sure it works for me.

Ok, Cheers Pixie.
