How to make followers ignore friendly fire?

[Deleted31005User]

So I noticed that Frea (the skaal village follower) completely ignores friendly fire and I would like to know how I can implement this for all my followers in my own mod.

As it stand right now they sometimes hit each other in combat and start fighting, same thing if I hit them a few times they will fight me.

But the annoying part is that I like to set my followers on essential which causes these fight to go on for ever, so having them ignore my friendly fire and friendly fire from other npcs as well would be great fix for this.

 

My mod also includes summonable creatures so if these could also somehow ignore friendly fire that would be great.

 

Can someone help me out on this please?

I haven't done it because I use AFT, But you probably just need to give them the DefaultIgnoreFriendlyHits script.

I checked out frea's scripts and she doesn't have that "DefaultIgnoreFriendlyHits", nonetheless it does seem to work on all my essential followers, so thank you for the assistance.

 

By the way for anyone else wanting to do this, you will need to add the "playerfaction" to every single follower/creature, even summonable ones, if you want them to ignore the friendly fire.

That "DefaultIgnoreFriendlyHits" script only works with "playerfaction" I think.
