(Solved) Adding comment on entering player's house in Sanctuary Hills

[F4llfield]

Hi all,

I'm using Nora Companion mod and I would like to add a comment she would make when entering the player's house in Sanctuary Hills. The comment would be something like "It's strange being back here."

One thing is, I don't think I want to use a marker since it could conflict with other mods I have. Is there a way do do this without a marker ?

 

In other words, how can I detect when the player enters is house in Sanctuary Hills by script without a marker?

You could try OnDistance Less/Greater than script events from an existing persistent object, triangulating that distance event with known distancees from TWO other existing persistent objects to ensure its the correct quadrant. It would be a total faff compared to simply placing (or spawning) a trigger volume in the doorway or room.

Thanks SKK!

Do I need to create a quest to only trigger by script a companion comment ?

[SKKmods]

If you dont simply attach a script to a placed trigger box object then yes you will need a quest form to attach a script to.

So, if I do attach a script to a trigger box, what script  function should I use to trigger a comment ? Do I need to creat a scene ?

Best to take a look at how the base game manages and triggers companion comments.

Thanks for your reply.

If you think of an easy example to look at, I'd appreciate. I look at CAT_Event but I don't really understand how they work.

Sorry cant help, never used those systems. Only noticed them in passing.

Thanks, like you said I looked at the slog companion comment, the way it was done and replicated it in Sanctuary player house. It works now.
