Simple script

[lord_corellon]

I made a target spell which has this script effect:

 

scn SlaveSpellEffect

 

ref self

 

begin ScriptEffectStart

 

set self to GetSelf

self.additem aaaFriendToken 1

 

end

 

 

It doesn't work. I have no idea what I am doing :P First I tried just "additem xxx" but it said i need an actor reference. Bah...im lost

Who is the item getting added to? Scripting isn't my strong point...

Try using the form ID 8 numbers, not the editor ID.

The script is supposed to add the "Friend Ring" from Companion Share Recruit to the target NPC so they can be shared with/recruited etc.

 

I can't believe no one has made this spell and put it on the Nexus yet. Doesn't it bug anyone that you can't recruit/share with half the NPC's in the game?!

 

Anyway thanks...I will try using Form ID but I doubt it will work :( the form ID changes based on what plugins you have loaded anyway right??

How do you know it doesn't work? I don't know much about Companion Share and Recruit, but I see no reason why that script wouldn't work as it should. In fact, the "self' variable shouldn't even be necessary at all, but if you're getting errors I guess it is. Here's an alternative you could try for bugtesting purposes.

 

scn SlaveSpellEffect

ref self

begin ScriptEffectStart

set self to GetSelf
if (self.GetItemCount aaaFriendToken == 0)
  self.additem aaaFriendToken 1
  message "Adding friend token"
else
  message "Target already has a friend token"
endif
end

 

What happens if you cast it a couple of times on a target?
