// this is made for a boss monster,  I did it for my mod for two of my dm buddies.
// it does a 10D roll and then based on the outcome
// it will speak a phrase and respawn. Eventually it will die because the roll of the die
// will not be a number. this will destroy the Creature and start a merchant by Fading it in
// and placing a MERCHANT. This one doesnt work unless you name the tag as MY_MONSTER
// place this in the onDeath Script of a creature.

void main()
{
// set up some variables
// get the object by its TAG- (note, the TAG is not the Blueprint, its the TAG you gave it, Look under the Basic TAB
// also Good scripters and builders alike share a standard TAGs should be upercase blueprints are
//  mandatoryily lowercase (forced by the toolset)

//set your monsters tag here or comment this line out and use the one below which will use the default
// name OBJECT_SELF
object oSelf = GetObjectByTag("C_MY_MONSTER") ;
// use the one above or this one below this line dont use both  this one works better for multiple spawns
// object oSelf = OBJECT_SELF ;

// this is for the Die roll, 
int nWhich = d10() ;
// this is the delay for the creature before it speaks its string and gets up.
float fDelay = 3.0;

// this is the function that makes the creature get up after speaking the string.

// if you do a spawn object here, you could actually switch between different versions of the
// same creature making the arm, leg, torso, or something invisible or add some effects like
// wounding, you can also change the nWhich to an actual number and use a While loop(for advanced scripters)
