Using the Console to make NPCs Non-Essential question.

[j0NO99]

Hi, I was curious about making NPCs non-essential via the console. I want to make NPCs non-essential for one of my four characters (an Orc going on a Skyrim destruction spree) and I was wondering if any console commands I input on that character affect the others?

 

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

setessential <ID> 1 to mark as essential

setessential <ID> 0 to mark as non essential

 

if you don't feel like looking up the ID you could use this:

Thanks, but I already know how to make the NPCs non-essential, I was wondering if doing that via the console made the NPC (ex. - Maven Black Briar) non-essential for ALL my characters and not just the one character I used the console with.

Just that one character. The game doesn't record anything outside your saves.

what about make animals none-essential to fix what something else broke

Randomly checking that I did put in the right cc, @ Twilightfallen, depends if going to console an disable/enable isn't fixing it,try:

...on the other hand if your using Requiem and can't understand why your awesomesauce sword is doing zero damage to ice wraiths, don't feel bad I console removed hundreds before I noticed Serana roasting them away...
