How to detect fall impact?

[PapaLegaBooboo]

Seeing that there's no such event handler to detect fall impact of an actor, is it even possible in New Vegas?

This one maybe is what will work for you ? https://geckwiki.com/index.php?title=GetActorVelocity

But have a look at all the functions for movement https://geckwiki.com/index.php?title=Category:Movement_Functions

 

And just guessing you need some sort of a detection event light weight script constantly running ?

 

So maybe this will work https://geckwiki.com/index.php?title=IsInAir

And also looks like it is available in condition fields ... So maybe a Perk or Actor Effect could function as an event handler with it ?

 

But the easiest would probably be some player input at the time of falling ... if that is along the lines of what you are doing ... like you wanted the player to have a feather fall ability for example ?

This is interesting. Weird how New Vegas doesn't have that event handler.

No those are not it. I'm trying to detect when an actor hits the ground hard enough to cause damage.

 

EDIT: Never mind. GetActorVelocity is what I needed. Thank you.

Glad you finally realized there is not a script running that checks fall impact all over the map .

 

Can you imagine what it would take to do that ?
