Mattiewagg Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Hvae you tried OnMCMMenuClose (OnConfigClose?) to EvaluatePackage if the value of the position has been changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsharaMeradin Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Won't be as helpful as you think. I have a hotkey to force evaluate the package stack. It wouldn't do anything when the conditions for the same package were still valid. The actor literally has to do a different package before the new values will be used. I had auto-walk on when I did my testing, so there was no going into idle mode. If they were truly stopped rather than menu paused, there most likely wouldn't have been a need to evaluate the package as the idle package would have kicked in. Still, I can toss one in. It wouldn't hurt anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackRoseOfThorns Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 This looks so good! I hope you will release aplha soon. I can see myself using it together with "Fast Sit 'n Relax with Follower Support". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVpWWLvhbSQ&x-yt-ts=1422503916&x-yt-cl=85027636 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsharaMeradin Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Thanks to a SKSE beta function. I can now have the follower re-evaluate the AI package stack when they sheathe and unsheathe weapons. This means that unlike in the video demonstrations where I either waited for the stack to be evaluated on its own or pressed a hot key to force the evaluation, it can happen much more seamlessly and with less interaction on the player's part. Player draws weapon and so follower draws weapon. If walking beside the follower will drop back until weapons are sheathed. If in combat (need to test) follower should not force evaluate when they are switching between melee, ranged or magic. Thinking I should condition sneaking out. Meaning that when sneaking the follower will drop back as if weapons were drawn. But I'm on the fence about that. Cause I suspect anyone who is going to be sneaking around will have either told the follower (via hotkey) to follow behind or have a weapon drawn causing the follower to follow behind.

BlackRoseOfThorns Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Personally I sneak with no weapon drawn, especially when I have a spell equiped. I think in sneak mode the follower should carry on with set up distance, unless commanded with hotkey. If it's possible, MCM sneak style option toggle would be the way to go. There could be lots of problems when follower decides to reavalute it's distance on it's own whenever you crouch. Let say you cross navmeshed tight bridge in the dungeon and you notice bandit on the other side. Usually those paths have wider parts somewhere in the middle. You crouch to sneak and hide behind braizer on a half column. Then stand up to snipe enemy with either bow or magic and hide/crouch/move around when they shoot back. In mean time follower on the bridge will go crazy and possibly fall down as it won't be able to judge the situation and distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsharaMeradin Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 When you sneak without a weapon drawn, is your spell "drawn" (i.e. at the ready so all you have to do is cast)? If so, then the follower will already be following behind with their weapon/spell drawn. The concern is sneaking without any kind of weapon or spell drawn.
