[Script] Translating a plane of water

[Zorkaz]

I want to move a plane of water (Activator) higher up but it behaves weirdly.

 

First it does nothing and after some seconds the plane of water transports to the end position.

Any thoughts or hints on this?

ObjectReference Property Water Auto
ObjectReference Property Xmarker Auto
MiscObject Property Plunger Auto

Event OnActivate (ObjectReference AkActionRef)
Game.getplayer().Additem (Plunger)
Self.disable()
Water.TranslateToRef(Xmarker , 10.0)

EndEvent

Just got this from another wiki page

Translating water activators:
Water plane activators can be translated, but their collision does not move with them unless the "Movable" keyword is added to the activator. This can be seen in TG08Water1024.

I plan on doing something similar for my quest mod but I haven't gotten to the level yet where I need it. I'm really interested to see if you manage to get it working, before I put my hands on it.

I wonder if this Movable kw would allow to move unmovable references that troubled me, so thanks for reminding. Speaking of hints, there is working script DN151_MovableWater and related quest?

As long as you add "movable" to the water plane it works.

 

I made a water plane that goes up and down, referencing two xmarkers at the top and bottom

Scriptname TBRWaterShaftScr extends ObjectReference

ObjectReference Property Xmarkerup Auto
ObjectReference Property XmarkerDown Auto
Int Property Into Auto


Event OnCellLoad()
If TBRBackroomsQuest.isrunning()
StartTimer (35, 100)
Endif
EndEvent


Event OnTimer (Int AiTimerID)
If AiTimerID == 100
If TBRBackroomsQuest.isrunning()
StartTimer (35, 100)
If Into == 0
Self.TranslateToRef(XmarkerUp , 60.0)

Into = 1
Else
Self.TranslateToRef(XmarkerDown , 60.0)
Into = 0
Endif
