The conditions seem to have precise data that I need to input in the tutorial. It's this bit:

"Then add conditions; First add one with:

Target: No
Fuction Name:GetInCell
Function Info: (YourInnCell)
Comp:==
Value:1
AND"

I don't know how to adjust the categories such as 'target', 'function name' and so on. It doesn't seem to let me alter them, just add a basic new one...?

Let me see if I can assist you. Those conditions are formatted the way they should be typed out if they were being put into a script. I sometimes think that scripting would have less debugging if scripts were created using something similar to this (wouldn't be as fast though).

Target = who the condition is going to be tested on. No means the speaker. Yes means the listner.
Function Name = your basic condition. What you want to test.
Function Info = what you want to test.
Comp = how you want the item to be tested against a number or global variable.
Value = either a number you can type in as a comparison or you can compare against a global variable.

In the case you listed above, you are testing whether the speaker is in a certain cell (GetInCell returns 1 if reference is in that cell and == and 1 means testing if condition is equal to 1). As for editing those parts, I would tell you if I had my CS open. Since I just reinstalled my OS, I'll come back when the CS is installed and open.

EDIT: Now have the CS open. You do condition editing in the boxes and menus to the right of the NEW button which you click on to add conditions. First, select the condition you wish to modify. Next, to change the following:
Target - Click the checkbox below the Conditions section. A cross means the condition applies to the listner and none means to the speaker.
Condition Function (Function Name) = Click the down arrow next to the function name. A drop box will then appear with all the various conditions you can select.
Function Parameters (Info) = Once you have selected a condition, you can click on this to specify additional parameters for your condition. A window will then appear with parameters that you can add for the condition. Note that if the word NONE is written on the button, it means that no parameters can be added because they are not needed (GetGold is an example of this). If you click on the NONE button, a window with greyed out options will appear.
Comp(arison) = Click the arrow and a drop box will appear with ways of comparing.
Value = Click in the text box and type a number. If you have checked the "Use Global" box above this text box, it will turn into a drop box which allows you to select any one of the global variables in existence.

Last is the Or check box next to Value. Basically, this means that only this condition or the one below needs to be true to have the topic appear. Otherwise, both have to be true. If there is only one condition or this is the last condition in the list, the Or box will have no effect.
