Scripting help for an "Armor Epoxy" - Geck

[Norfuer]

So I've done my first foray into porting a mod from FO3 that actually involves scripting. In this case, BEArbiter's Alien Aroxy - http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/11486/?

 

I tested it out, and for some reason, it wasn't as effective as you would expect when you have 100 Repair.

 

Not knowing jack about GECK, I nevertheless have SOME background in CS, so I decided to give it a whirl and try to understand the problem. Found out that the script for the original Epoxy uses "GetWeaponHealthPerc" (Percent of Health), while NVSE uses, for equipment, "GetEquippedCurrentHealth" (raw numbers). Which meant it was adding 30HP instead of 30% HP. Fair enough. I improvised a variable (armorHealthMult) to stand for the armor's health percentage, modified THAT, and then set the final health to armorHealthMult x armorMaxHealth.

 

It worked well enough. The problem arose when I added some code for it to fix helmets as well. For some reason, it stopped working altogether. So I have no idea what the problem is other than how it's somehow connected to the helmet code. Maybe there's some kind of conflict between the two, I dunno.

 

So, here's the script... any help would be appreciated. Thanks, and sorry for my rambling. :smile:
