Any way to change an NPC's Package with scripting?

[rbddc12]

So I'm working on a mod and I want to be able to change an NPC's package using a script or papyrus fragment that is run at the end of a scene and I can't seem to find a way of doing it.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

There are two ways you could do this:

 

1. Give the NPC your package at first index and give that package a condition (like a global variable you set with a script)

2. Use an quest alias for your NPC to add an alias package, that will run on the actor you fill into the alias ( alias.forceRefTo(...) )

I'm having problems to get this method working. I know the procedure and used this a lot in Skyrim without problems. However it is not working for me in F4: NPC's won't execute the new packages and additionally added papyrus debug notifications inside Begin/End/Change of the package aren't firing either.

 

Alias spells are added to the npc reference so the alias has been filled correctly... but packs aren't working (evaluatepackage).

 

Any idea?

Fixed: Make sure the package is pointing to the quest that holds the alias'
