moryndin Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Okay i will begin this by saying i am new to scripting and realize that it is no easy thing to jump into. Recently i have been wanting to learn some oblivion scripts and make a Mod of my own. I have succeeded in making simple scripts such as teleporter the player with coords by activating a activator but i am now trying to set up a script where in when a pressure pad is activated it will unlock a door but for some reason i cannot seem to get the script that is attached to the activator to target the door. I would assume it is because i have not learned how to make the script point to a reference. I have had no luck at all to get any script to point to a reference not even the teleport script which i first tried to make it a MoveTo script but wouldnt accept any reference i tried. I kept running into a syntax error saying that the reference was invalid and could not be used. I have been searching the wiki for days to find out how to get it to work so i decided to make a post on the forums. If anyone could explain how to get references to work and how to get them to work in my unlock door script as well. I would very much appreciate any advice. Below is the last script i tried to get the unlock door script to work TimedUnlockGate1 is the object ID and i have also tried to put a reference ID there instead as well. scn PressurePlateUnlock1 Begin OnActivate TimedUnlockGate1.Unlock End Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, was not aware that i needed to do this nor did i know that you could. Will try this tonight and fool around with it further. thank you very much!
