Hello, Thanks in Advance.. and to those who feel like helping please give in-depth answers explaining your post.

1. How do I make these dynamic where they re-size themselves dependent upon how many commands are available? or something like that.. without having to always manually re-size dialog backgrounds?

resizepic 12 14 5054 203 200
gumppictiled 19 22 187 185 5124

2. How do I make a dialog recognize the page its on for example
Page 1 of 2 without manually typing in the numbers?

3. What is the best way to have the dialog load information in accordance to your plevel? Example. I would like players who click commands have "variable" commands listed. If Counselor clicks commands have it list only counselor commands and all of player's commands. Seers show seers commands and counselors and players commands?

Try this:

resizepic 12 14 5054 <LOCAL.ResizepicWidth> <LOCAL.ResizepicHeight>
gumppictiled 19 22 <LOCAL.GumppictiledWidth> <LOCAL.GumppictiledHeight> 5124

Figuring out how to calculate those variables... that is the tricky part.

By Default, the sphere_admin.scp has some definitions for the PLEVELs:

Code:

[DEFNAME admin_strings]

// Titles for privilege levels

admin_plevel_0         "Guest"

admin_plevel_1         "Player"

admin_plevel_2         "Counselor"

admin_plevel_3         "Seer"

admin_plevel_4         "Game Master"

admin_plevel_5         "Developer"

admin_plevel_6         "Administrator"

admin_plevel_7         "Owner"

lets add a few more to make the code more readable...

Code:

// Titles for privilege levels

admin_plevel_Guest        0

admin_plevel_Player       1

admin_plevel_Counselor    2

admin_plevel_Seer         3

admin_plevel_GM           4

admin_plevel_Developer    5

admin_plevel_Admin        6

admin_plevel_Owner        7

So make some basic functions that check for the minimum PLEVEL for a given command... maybe like this:

Code:

[FUNCTION f_PLevelAtLeastGM]

IF (<ACCOUNT.PLEVEL> >= <DEF.admin_plevel_gm>)

   RETURN 1

ENDIF

RETURN 0

Then in the DIALOG itself, do stuff like this:

Code:

//dtext x y colour text

dtext 10 10 <QVAL <SRC.f_PLevelatLeastGM>?<DEF.color_snow>:<DEF.color_red1>> text that is white for GMs (or higher) and red for anyone less than GM

//a button (3) that is pressable only by GMs or higher:

//button x y gump_down gump_up is_pressable page id

button 0 10 2704  2705 <QVAL <SRC.f_PLevelatLeastGM>?1:0> 0 3
