Script Requests

[Grohiik]

yes, i have it setup as an active magic script. That's all the script actually .-. I had changed the target actor to the variable name before, but it didn't work, changed it again now. I have no idea why i didn't leave it with the variable name .-. Anyways, i changed it to the variable name, but i still don't know what's wrong, it still doesn't work

 

 

Edit:

 

It's actually working now. Thanks for the help. It didn't work before when i had changed the actor target to the variable because of my save .-.

Are you using a dirty save game?

 

Are you sure you have the script attached correctly to the correct effect, which is attached to the spell? If not, you may not even be executing the script. A message display in your script might help determine this.

This is a simple one for you.. how do i make npcs in skyrim disapear and then reapear.I know its a event on activate script but i dont know the rest. The script is goin to be activated by a trigger box once the npc's enter the trigger box NOT THE PLAYER.

EXAMPLE

"They will be chasing you, you run through the trigger box, they go through and they disapear, and then reapear in another part of the same cell ahead of you somewhere" with a x marker placed on the floor to signify where they will reapear.

[WillieSea]

You place a trigger box zone.

Your script will activate based on the entry trigger of the NPC.

Scriptname LevelersForceFieldScript extends ObjectReference

Actor Property LevelersShanara  Auto 
Actor Property LevelersBilboBaggins  Auto 

ObjectReference Property myMarkerEndREF  Auto  

Event OnTriggerEnter(objectReference activateRef)
	if activateRef == LevelersShanara
		LevelersShanara.MoveTo myMarkerEndREF
	endif
	if activateRef == LevelersBilboBaggins
		LevelersBilboBaggins.MoveTo myMarkerEndREF
	endif
EndEvent

ah thanks but there is one tiny problem its giving me an error .

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source\temp\npcMoveScript.psc(11,18): no viable alternative at input 'MoveTo'

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source\temp\npcMoveScript.psc(14,23): no viable alternative at input 'MoveTo'

 

any reason why?

Willie left off some important punctuation. The lines need parentheses around myMarkerEndRef.

[WillieSea]

Yeah, I was coding from memory. Not bad I guess, after not even playing Skyrim in 4 months.

 

LevelersShanara.MoveTo(myMarkerEndREF)

 

When you have problems, check out the WIKI, it will show you how to use each command.

Hey guys, I asked about spell teaching script. I came to conclusion that it does nothing.

However me being total n00b at scripting skyrim I DID NOT COMPLE THE SCRIPT. Im pretty sure that the 2 scripts I mentioned do indeed handle the mechanics of learing spells.

Uhm trying to figure out what's wrong with my attempt:
 

Scriptname equipaggiaarmatura extends ObjectReference  
{Primo test da 0}

Actor Property Lydia  Auto  

Armor Property ornamentalhelmet1  Auto  


Event OnEquipped(Actor akActor)
	if akActor == Lydia
		Game.GetPlayer().EquipItem(ornamentalhelmet1)
		Lydia.EquipItem(ornamentalhelmet1, true)
	endif
EndEvent

That's just an experiment, nothing more, but at last I expected that could work since it's simple, but not;
As you can see if i wear a certain armor part the npc ref will do the same, but no.

 

[WillieSea]

EquipItem only works if the item is already in the inventory of the player/NPC you are trying to equip it on.

[Veinwolf]

Uhm still don't work or I didn't understand well the functions on papyrus:
 

Scriptname equipaggiaarmatura extends ObjectReference  
{Primo test da 0}

Actor Property Lydia  Auto  

Armor Property ornamentalhelmet1  Auto  


Event OnEquipped(Actor akActor)
	if akActor == Lydia
		Game.GetPlayer().EquipItem(ornamentalhelmet1)
                Lydia.AddItem(ornamentalhelmet1)
		Lydia.EquipItem(ornamentalhelmet1, true)
	endif
EndEvent

 

[BrettM]

OnEquipped happens when the item is equipped by akActor. In other words, the actor has to equip the item, and THEN the event will be called. The event was not happening because nobody had yet put on the helmet.

 

Your script checks to see if Lydia put on the helmet (which she can't do by herself), and then puts it on your character, as well as putting it on Lydia again.

 

If you want Lydia to put on the helmet whenever you do, then you would need something like:

Scriptname equipaggiaarmatura extends ObjectReference 
{Primo test da 0}

Actor Property Lydia Auto 

Armor Property ornamentalhelmet1 Auto 


Event OnEquipped(Actor akActor)

    if akActor == Game.GetPlayer()
        Lydia.AddItem(ornamentalhelmet1)
        Lydia.EquipItem(ornamentalhelmet1, true)
    endif

EndEvent

You do not need to use EquipItem on your character, because it was your character putting on the helmet that started the script, so it is already equipped on your character.

Well thank you both but no.. I've also noticed that even if I revert the property on the npc in the world space the property are cancelled after the closure of the edit window, in other words 0 at property value, I think that there's something wrong...

[WillieSea]

Not really sure what your saying, but if you mean the property in your script pointing to the armor vanishes, then...

Are you attempting to mod a mod? You can't like that. Properties for other mod added items will be removed from your mod on save.

[Veinwolf]

No Will it's start from 0, the only masters file are Update.esm and Skyrim.esm

[WillieSea]

Masters you can mod. Plugin's you cannot. Are you loading multiple ESP files?

[Veinwolf]

No Willie, as i said on the data list I've checked only the to masters file, I didn't even load the dlcs, the .esp it's only one setted as active file, I don't use multiple .esp file for a single test work.

[WillieSea]

Where does 'ornamentalHelmet' armor piece come from? Is it usable?

 

Also, when you do an 'addItem', you should wait a quarter of a second before trying the equip. The Item 'must' be in the inventory before the equip.

 

And the AddItem sometimes takes a few FPS to actually be added.

[BrettM]

I was wondering the same thing. Perhaps you should try your test with a pure vanilla helmet first, like a hide helmet or something.

[Veinwolf]

Where does 'ornamentalHelmet' armor piece come from? Is it usable?

It's a custom helmet, playable of course

 

About the wait, maybe I should integrate the same event of the mannequin about the time start up on cell load:

 

	
	;Trace("DARYL - " + self + " Waiting a bit because it's the only way to get code to run in OnCellLoad it seems")
	wait(0.25)
	

But I don't know how actually integrate on my script and that's commented as far as i know.

I'll try with a vanilla helmet just like Brett saying, just to be sure.

[WillieSea]

    if akActor == Game.GetPlayer()
        Lydia.AddItem(ornamentalhelmet1)
  
	wait(0.25)
      Lydia.EquipItem(ornamentalhelmet1, true)
    endif

Also, make sure you have the script activation correct. Lydia equipping the armor will not start the script since I doubt she ever will.

[Veinwolf]

 

Also, make sure you have the script activation correct.

 

This, how, an event to start if i good understand..umm on cell load will be ok?

 

EDIT: Wait give me a debugging error.

 

EDIT2: figure out, it's:

 

Utility.wait(....)

Edited November 3, 2013 by Veinwolf

[BrettM]

This script needs to be attached to the helmet, and it will activate whenever the helmet is used. You don't need an OnCellLoad event because this script doesn't have anything that needs to be done at that time.

[Veinwolf]

Nope..ok I give up, I've even take a ctd after few attempt :\
Btw, now the reverted property work fine, but not the script.

[Veinwolf]

Nononono wait, Brett, do you know what a hell you've doing now?

 

No really, there is a way to give you both a ton of cookies? Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooork, I didn't reversed a property for one script edit! Thank you!
