Need for simple script- 2

[Leodoidao]

Greetings.

I´m in need for help again... need advice about how to do the following:

1- Player talks to a NPC and when the talk is done he just attacks player furiously, with no room for the "surrender/yelding weapon" option (get permanently hostile) .

What is the script? How can it be done?

2- A very simple spell that teleports player to a given interior cell (player home that will be added at the end of the quest)--- but this spell WILL ONLY WORK when casted in outdoors.

Anyone could help me?

1. a. If you have you own topic on the NPC then in the last thing the NPC says you can check goodbye and put in the result script StartCombat player .

b. If you're not in control of the NPC's dialogue then attach this script somewhere (a quest would probably be best, or directly onto the NPC if it's your own):

scn CombatStart


short attack


Begin Menumode 1009

 if (TalkingNPC.getCurrentAIPackage == 6)

  set attack to 1

 endif

End


Begin Gamemode

 if (attack == 1)

  TalkingNPC.StartCombat player

  set attack to 0

 endif

End

 

I do not know how to make the NPC unyielding though. Possibly set the aggression and deposition really high? 2.

scn TeleportSpell


Begin ScriptEffectStart

 if (player.IsInInterior == 0)

  player.moveTo MyHouseXMarker

 endif

End

For the first, you simply need to add a few lines to the Results Script of the dialog:

YourNPCEditorIDGoesHere.moddisposition player -100

YourNPCEditorIDGoesHere.startcombat player

[/codebox]

This will make the NPC hate the player so the player can't yield, and initiate combat. You might want to check the "Goodbye" box on that piece of dialogue too, so that dialogue will stop and game mode will resume automatically when the NPC is done with his line.

For the second, here is a very simple spell script. I am assuming you already know how to set up a basic spell with a script effect. For simplicity, place an XMarker or XMarkerHeading where you want the player to land when the spell is finished. Give it a persistent reference ID. Create a new script, and make sure you set the type to Magic.

[codebox]
ScriptName YourScriptNameGoesHere

short Ported

Begin ScriptEffectStart

If Player.IsInInterior == 1
Message "You cannot use this spell indoors."
;or "You cannot teleport from this location." or whatever you like, can also omit this line for no message.
Return
Else
set Ported to 1
Player.MoveTo YourXMarkerEditorIDGoesHere
EndIf

End

Begin ScriptEffectFinish

If Ported == 1
;we need to use this condition or the message will display even if the player didn't get teleported
SetPlayerInSEWorld 0
;change to 1 if teleporting into the Shivering Isles; this check ensures NPCs don't get the I HAVE NO GREETING bug when going from one side to the other
Message "Welcome to YourLocationNameGoesHere."
;optional, but a nice touch - edit to suit or omit for no message.
set Ported to 0
;reset to 0 so the message will only display once
EndIf

End

You can remove the comment lines (they start with a semi-colon) for tidiness when you're done. I just wanted you to see what each line did and where you could customize it to suit your preference.

Good luck!

Edit - Oops, sorry Critterman, I didn't mean to post on top of you!

Thank you very much Khet and Crit.

Now just ONE LAST question:

I want to make the bad guy really tough, but during my quest someone will craft me a new weapon to waste him.

How can I make him vulnerable to this particular weapon/

[WillieSea]

There are probably as many different ways to do that as there are ways to copy a file in windows.

What I would probably do is add an enchantment on the weapon that does extra damage if the reference that is hit is a specific NPC.
