    int nHelpStringReference = 0,
    string sHelpString = ""
);

Parameters

oPC

The player to show panel to.

bRespawnButtonEnabled

If this is TRUE, the "Respawn" button will be enabled (Default: TRUE)

bWaitForHelpButtonEnabled

If this is TRUE, the "Wait For Help" button will be enabled (Default: TRUE)

nHelpStringReference

String reference to display for help. (Default: 0)

sHelpString

String to display for help which appears in the top of the panel. (Default: "")

Description

Displays a death panel that can turn off the "Respawn" or "Wait for Help" buttons. The "Wait for Help" button is only enabled when the game is running in multiplayer mode.

By default if sHelpString isn't specified, the value used is "Choose an option below. Respawning will incur a penalty of 50 XP per level of your character and the loss of 10% of your gold." (strref 66219 single player, 6600 for multiplayer).

Remarks

The BioWare death dialog can be displayed using the PopUpGUIPanel() function.

sHelpString should be changed when using a penalty for dying other than the default to avoid inconsistencies.

nHelpStringReference is an index into either the dialog.tlk file or a custom .tlk file associated with the module.
