Tutorial for FSM's?

[IndeedPete 1038]

Are there any basic tutorials on how to create .FSM files? I think i figured out how to make conversations via topic/conversation system but i got no idea on how FSMs are working. And the Biki isn't very helpful, so if anyone has knowlegde about those files please share it with me!

Yes please. If anyone has something I'd like to see it as well. I've tried to figure it out but I'm struggling.

Hm if no one knows anything about FSMs maybe you have other ideas on how to create multiple choice dialogues? I can only think of conversations via addAction but that's a lot of work and it looks stupid. Or maybe there's a way by using dialogs? Any idea will be appreciated!

If you open up the Addons/mission.pbo file and look in the campaign folder under C01_FirstToFight, it has plenty of examples of using FSM/BIKB/etc files for convos.

And you are editing these with the BIS FSM editor right? Not as text?

Of course not.

Hell they don't even give you a half decent tutorial for the actual game itself.

Ah great thank you! I'll take a few looks at it.

Why do you not use the FSMEditor by BI?
