Enabling an object with Havok enabled?

[SGTbayk47]

Hey all.

 

I'm using trying to enable a disabled reference *and* make the havok kick in. What happens at the minute is the object is enabled but doesnt react to the physics unless the player interacts with the item themselves.

 

I'm enabling the item in a simple OnActivate script with another item, so would there be something I can add to that script to enable havok right after the object is enabled?

 

This is the script I'm using:

SCN EnableScript

Begin OnActivate Player

DisabledRef.Enable
SetDestroyed 1

End

Hopefully someone knows how to achieve this, if it's possible.

 

Cheers, BayK.

You can PlaceAtMe a fake explosion, like I did for the havok bounce

[SGTbayk47]

I've made a fake explosion, by removing the model and all the sounds etc. and leaving a bit of force and a radius. Then I tried using PlaceAtMe to put the explosion on the object which needs havok. I'm guessing that the explosion is called way to quickly after the reference being enabled, because nothing happens in-game.

 

Anyhow, this is the script at the moment:

SCN EnableScript

Begin OnActivate Player

DisabledRef.Enable
DisabledRef.PlaceAtMe FakeExplosion 1
SetDestroyed 1

End

If the explosion is called too fast, do you know how to add a delay to a script?

You do that in gamemode. Something like this:

SCN EnableScript

int bEnabled
float fTimer

Begin OnActivate Player
   if DisabledRef.GetDisabled
      Let bEnabled := 1
      DisabledRef.Enable
   endif
End

Begin GameMode

   if bEnabled == 1
      if fTimer < 2
         Let fTimer += GetSecondsPassed
      else
         Let bEnabled := 2
         DisabledRef.PlaceAtMe FakeExplosion 1
         SetDestroyed 1
      endif
   endif
End

PS for the model, you should use a specific model, it's named null-something, don't remember the exact name

Can the same thing be achieved without NVSE? Because I can't get NVSE to work with my GECK so I can't save the script.

SCN EnableScript



int bEnabled

float fTimer



Begin OnActivate Player

   if DisabledRef.GetDisabled

      Set bEnabled to 1

      DisabledRef.Enable

   endif

End



Begin GameMode



   if bEnabled == 1

      if fTimer < 2

         Set fTimer to fTimer + GetSecondsPassed

      else

         Set bEnabled to 2

         DisabledRef.PlaceAtMe FakeExplosion 1

         SetDestroyed 1

      endif

   endif

End

That worked great, thanks for the help :)
