Creation Kit Scripting Question

zenetx · May 12, 2014

Hi guys! Please, I need some advice.

I'm trying to do my first mod and I was doing well ... until now.

I did some scripting following this tutorial

and everything worked flawless. But now I am stuck with a stupid doubt.

I need to do a set quest stage after the game detect the player cast a spell, something like the Winterhold College entry test (but simpler)

So I did my script:

Scriptname DetectSpellCastScript extends Quest

Event OnSpellCast()

SetStage(20)

endEvent

And it compiles with no errors. The problem is: How do I attach it to a papyrus fragment??

I mean, it is not a function! How can I invoke it without a function?

Thanks in advance.

Apply it as a separate script on the player alias in your quest.

Scriptname DetectSpellCastScript Extends ReferenceAlias
 
Event OnSpellCast()
GetOwningQuest().SetStage(20)
EndEvent

Thanks IsharaMeradin, you're a Gentleman and a Scholar.

After your advise and a little study, I managed to make it work.
