The idea was to produce a dynamic book as a travel guide in your inventory.
Let us say that you would like to provide some information about a cave, a house or a graveyard. Normally you will use a signpost near the spot to give the information.
But what if you want to hide some information for certain classes or you want to provide information only to players with a high lore? What if you want to provide some information on that signpost to everybody and hide other information for the higher levels, or for a different race?
Instead of using a placeable signpost giving the information with the lack of information division; you will use Dynamic Book System.
With Dynamic Book System you are able to divide information between different categories of races, classes, levels and lore. In other words; you can provide information to your players in a new and smart way. On the same spot you can have information to everybody and hidden information which only will reveal for players who are e. g. Druids level 11.
And you are not using any signposts!
The information is written into your Guidebook in your inventory. And dependent of your stats you will be able to read it accordingly.
Dynamic Book System consists of 3 scripts, 1 item and 1 trigger.
It will need Neverwinter Nights 1.69 to function. It will show how the new GetDescription() and SetDescription() functions work. It works with CEP 2.1 or without. It doesn�t matter.
