Copying Min01 quest (Sanctuary)

[MesaSolar]

I'd like to copy/mimic the Sanctuary quest where the player has to build certain items from the workshop to make Sanctuary a settlement for the minutemen.

 

I took a look at the Min01 0005DEE4 quest in the CK and it's a bit of a mess so I'm hoping someone here might be able to dumb it down for me.

 

1. I need to set up an area within my custom worldspace as a settlement

2. Obviously need someone to report to like Sturgess. ( I have an NPC in mind already)

3. Need to be able to check for each task being done.

 

Sheltered beds, clean water, food and defenses.

I have my settlement built and am ready to start scripting the quest.

 

Min01 has its own quest script which I'm assuming I can copy and just adjust some parameters to match my quest. Not sure where to start though and I'm still confused when looking at the quest stages of Min01.

 

Appreciate any help making this work.

I followed this tutorial but when I activate the workshop I get a message that I need to clear the enemies from the location even though there are no enemies or NPC's at this location yet. Any idea what could be causing this?

Does the Location of the settlement has the Location Ref Type "Boss"? If so, then you need to kill the that NPC (or NPCs) to make the location "Cleared".

 

(You can call SetCleared() on the location).

I found a property setting to have the player own the settlement. That seemed to fix the enemy problem. Next I'm on to scripting for the actual quest. I copied the script from the Min01 quest and deleted what I didn't need. This is what I have so far:

 

Scriptname APWQuest07Script extends WorkshopEventsQuestScript Conditional

 

bool initialized = false

 

bool bAllObjectivesComplete = false Conditional

;WorkshopEventsQuestScript myWorkshopEvents

 

; called once by startup stage

function InitializeQuest()

if initialized

return

endif

 

;myWorkshopEvents = (self as Quest) as WorkshopEventsQuestScript

 

; register for events

RegisterForRemoteEvent(Game.GetPlayer(), "OnLocationChange")

RegisterForRemoteEvent(Alias_Preston.GetActorRef(), "OnLocationChange")

endFunction

 

 

; call when starting beds objective to check for beds already made

function InitializeBedsObjective()

float beds = GetBedsRating()

debug.trace(self + " InitializeBedsObjective: starting beds=" + beds)

if beds > 0

WorkshopParent.UpdateWorkshopObjectivesSpecific(self, WorkshopObjectives, Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript)

; check if everything is complete already

HandleWorkshopEvent()

endif

endFunction

 

; call when starting water objective to check for water already made

function InitializeWaterObjective()

float water = GetWaterRating()

debug.trace(self + " InitializeWaterObjective: starting water=" + water)

if water > 0

WorkshopParent.UpdateWorkshopObjectivesSpecific(self, WorkshopObjectives, Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript)

; check if everything is complete already

HandleWorkshopEvent()

endif

endFunction

 

; call when starting food objective to check for food already made

function InitializeFoodObjective()

float food = GetFoodRating()

debug.trace(self + " InitializeFoodObjective: starting food=" + food)

if food > 0

WorkshopParent.UpdateWorkshopObjectivesSpecific(self, WorkshopObjectives, Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript)

; check if everything is complete already

HandleWorkshopEvent()

endif

endFunction

 

; call when starting food objective to check for food already made

function InitializeSafetyObjective()

float safety = GetSafetyRating()

debug.trace(self + " InitializeSafetyObjective: starting safety=" + safety)

if safety > 0

WorkshopParent.UpdateWorkshopObjectivesSpecific(self, WorkshopObjectives, Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript)

; check if everything is complete already

HandleWorkshopEvent()

endif

endFunction

 

function HandleWorkshopEvent()

WorkshopScript workshopRef = Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript

 

; wait for recalc to finish

workshopRef.WaitForWorkshopResourceRecalc()

 

; if all objectives are complete, then set completion variable

bool allComplete = true

 

int i = 0

while (i < WorkshopObjectives.Length) && allComplete

WorkshopParentScript:WorkshopObjective theObjective = WorkshopObjectives

if IsObjectiveCompleted(theObjective.index) == false

allComplete = false

endif

i += 1

endWhile

bAllObjectivesComplete = allComplete

endFunction

 

 

float function GetBedsRating()

return WorkshopParent.GetRating(Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript, WorkshopParent.WorkshopRatingBeds)

endFunction

 

float function GetPowerRating()

return WorkshopParent.GetRating(Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript, WorkshopParent.WorkshopRatingPower)

endFunction

 

float function GetWaterRating()

return WorkshopParent.GetRating(Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript, WorkshopParent.WorkshopRatingWater)

endFunction

 

float function GetFoodRating()

return WorkshopParent.GetRating(Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript, WorkshopParent.WorkshopRatingFood)

endFunction

 

float function GetSafetyRating()

return WorkshopParent.GetRating(Alias_Workshop.GetRef() as WorkshopScript, WorkshopParent.WorkshopRatingSafety)

endFunction

If you set the property OwnedByPlayer = True direct on WorkshopScript you will break the WorkshopParent registration. Fact

 

You need to either use the WorkshopSetOwnedTrigger

 

Or call the function myWorkshop.SetOwnedByPlayer(true) in script

 

Or call the function from the comnsole [cf "WorkshopScript.SetOwnedByPlayer" 1]

 

If you are following a fancy guide that sounds great but doesnt actually explain what you are doing, use something which does like https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/articles/2298 step 13 seems appropriate.

Ok I set the property back to false and I added a WorkshopSetOwnedTrigger, but the trigger doesn't seem to be working, and when I try to save the script I get these errors:

 

variable WorkshopParent is undefined

variable WorkshopObjectives is undefined

variable Alias_Workshop is undefined

none is not a known user-defined script type

cannot cast a void to a workshopscript, types are incompatible

[SKKmods]

No idea what it is that you are doing, but its probably not following the instructions that dont involve saving scripts: (13) ObjectWindow > RenderWindow add WorkshopSetOwnedTrigger infront of workshop to automatically grant player ownership.

 

Are you monkeying around with WorkshopSetOwnedTriggerScript ?

Apparently the problem was that I was coc'ing directly into the cell. I tried entering the game in a different cell and walking to the settlement so now it works. I just need to get the Min01 Script working now still getting these errors with my custom script:

 

variable WorkshopParent is undefined

variable WorkshopObjectives is undefined

variable Alias_Workshop is undefined

none is not a known user-defined script type

cannot cast a void to a workshopscript, types are incompatible

EDIT: I added a LocRefType to the NPC's in the render window and that fixed the problem.

 

Ok so i think i found a workaround by simply attaching the original Min01 quest script to mine an pointing the global variables to custom ones. Next I added a couple of Unique NPC's to the area that are needed in the quest and I got this warning:
