I did have to switch the script from an ObjectReference to an Actor script, but since Actor extends ObjectReference, there was no problem with that. The other thing I changed was that I didn't want the update starting OnInit, since that means it's running the whole game. Because new enemies were getting summoned in, OnCellAttach wouldn't work because enemies would get summoned without triggering their own OnCellAttach. In the end, since I wanted the cleanup to happen once you're outside of the cell, I had the RegisterForSingleUpdate chain start OnCellDetach. It reduces the time between starting and ending the update as much as possible. I'll do a stress test to make sure that if you accidentally fill up the place with fifty replicated enemies it doesn't crash when each of them has their own update script running, but other than that, it seems like the script is working perfectly now. Thanks a lot!

I wasn't exactly sure how to use OnUpdate. Is that what you'd suggest using if I wanted to take the first option? For example, I'd put something on the enemy's script along the lines of (ripped from the CK wiki): Event OnInit() RegisterForSingleUpdate(10.0) EndEvent Event OnUpdate() Bool bKeepUpdating = True If Quest.GetStage() == EndStage Self.Delete() bKeepUpdating = False EndIf If bKeepUpdating RegisterForSingleUpdate(10.0) EndIf EndEvent So that it'll check every 10 seconds and if the quest stage is completed (or the global variable is ticked, or whatever conditions I put in there) then it deletes itself?

I've set up some scripting in a mod of mine where copies of an enemy spawn in OnHit. I have no problem with this--the problem is with trying to clean up after them. I'd like to be able to Kill and/or Delete all of them once I'm done, so that they're not cluttering up the place. What I have on each of the enemies (applied to the base NPC, so that each enemy spawns with a copy of the script): Scriptname EnemyScript extends ObjectReference Function KillAllEnemies() Self.Delete() endFunction And then, from there, I want to use another script to delete them from afar. What I tried was: Scriptname KillScript extends EnemyScript Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef) KillAllEnemies() EndEvent While I didn't get any actual errors, the problem was that when I called KillAllEnemies, it used Self on the activator I had attached KillScript to, not on the enemies. I know that I could accomplish this with SKSE and a GetNumRefs/GetNthRef script, but for reasons of compatibility, I'm trying to figure out some way to do this without using SKSE functions. The difficult part is that I can't, say, set properties that point to the enemies, because of the way they'll spawn in. At the moment, I'm using an OnCellDetach event in the EnemyScript to handle it, and while it works, I'd like to find a way to make this more flexible.
