Quest Script

[mjab_flame_kill]

I have been trying to create a new simple script for moving on to a new stage after 5 have been completed however i have been unsuccessful so far.  What I have so far:

Scriptname AAQuestSetStage40 extends Quest  

 

Quest Property AAQuest  Auto

 

Event OnActivate (ObjectReference akActionRef)

 

  if (AAQuest.GetStageDone(31)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(32)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(33)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(34)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(35))

  endIf

   (AAQuest.SetStage(40))

endEvent

 

I have attached this to two places, the spell which you get after getting to stage 40 and the script tab under the quest that it is being created for.  Any help would be appreciated!

The event 'OnActivate' implies the player is interacting with something. So your script will never run since a spell or quest will never kick off the OnActivate block.

I don't script for quests, but I would guess you would add the script to dialog or something else.

thanks ill use the Event OnInit i think

[WillieSea]

OnInit only runs once, when the object the script is attached to is initialized.

Depending on how you have the quest setup, you might look into OnUpdate instead.

Such as:

Event OnInit()
registerForUpdate(1)
EndEvent

Event OnUpdate()
'do your code
EndEvent

sadly that doesn't work it just starts that stage whenever i open i new save or game.

Scriptname AAQuestSetStage40 extends Quest  

 

Quest Property AAQuest  Auto

 

Event OnInit()

registerForUpdate(1)

EndEvent

 

Event OnUpdate()

 if (AAQuest.GetStageDone(31)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(32)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(33)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(34)) && (AAQuest.GetStageDone(35))

 endIf

   (AAQuest.SetStage(40))

EndEvent

Its because your telling it to set the stage, no matter what quest stage has been completed yet.

You need to put the setStage code inside your IF condition. Then you need to unregister it for updates since it did its thing.

Event OnUpdate()
if AAQuest.GetStageDone(31) && AAQuest.GetStageDone(32) && AAQuest.GetStageDone(33) && AAQuest.GetStageDone(34) && AAQuest.GetStageDone(35)
    AAQuest.SetStage(40)
    UnregisterForUpdate()
endIf
EndEvent

ok thanks

[mjab_flame_kill]

it still doesn't do anything

[WillieSea]

Are you sure its running? Your using a clean save game?

 

I wonder about the AAQuest.GetStageDone command. Does it recognize all those stages as done for the same quest or will it only work for one quest stage per quest?

 

Anyway, you might need to do something different there if its never possible to be true.
