Triggerbox activator can't be activated by player. Help?

[YouDoNotKnowMyName]

Good afternoon everybody!

 

I made a triggerbox activator that the player can activate.

(Gave it a unique ID, attached a scirpt to it that does some stuff OnActivate).

 

But when I load the game and go to where I placed it, I can't activate it.

 

Is there some keyword that I need to add?

You need ontriggerenter not onactivate

You need ontriggerenter not onactivate

But I want it to be an activatable "invisible box" that I can place over something (to not break PreCombines, if I replaced it with an actual activator that would break them).

Triggerboxes don't have meshes, they can't be "activated". You'd need an actual object for that.

Yes, it is possible:

 

You know the Covenant-Quest where you can activate certain things to "investigate"?

That is done this way!

 

I also found the checkbox "player activation".

Neat. Consider it stolen.

 

I'm going to update the Prydwen VertiCall mod with that!

Well just post the script then.

Maybe use the Covenantbox as a base if it helps

It works with normal trigger boxes.

Just check the checkbox "player activation" in the reference window.

 

In the script I just use "On Activate" like for any normal activator.
