Rings Script Help

[Jojash]

So, I'm trying to make two rings (One is called Light and the other one is called Dark) that are useless unless you equip them both but I can't make it work, here's the script I'm using for it:

ScriptName 0Dark&Light

 

short GotLight

 

Begin OnEquip Player

 

if GotLight == 0

Player.ModActorValue Destruction 100

Player.ModActorValue Illusion 100

Player.ModActorValue HandToHand 200

Player.ModActorValue Strength 100

set GotLight to 1

endif

 

End

 

 

Begin OnUnequip Player

 

if GotLight == 1

Player.ModActorValue Destruction -100

Player.ModActorValue Illusion -100

Player.ModActorValue HandToHand -200

Player.ModActorValue Strength -100

set GotLight to 0

endif

 

End

 

This script is for the ring called dark not Light because I want the ring to work only of the other ring is equipped, Light has a similar script.

 

I don't know if the script is the problem but it seems to be the only thing that can really go wrong, so any help would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance :)

umm the only problem that i can think of is that the variable gotlight is not set to anything before the script starts but i am not 100 percent positive

Canyou tell me how to do that? Or post a link to a tut that would teach me how to do so? (Sorry I'm pretty terrible at scripts :( )

Short variables are 0 by default anyway so there is no need for it to be set before the main body of the script.

 

Give me about 20 mins and I will write an alternate version for you and edit this post to show this.

 

 

ScriptName 0Dark&Light ;object script

 

short GotLight

 

Begin GameMode

 

if GotLight == 0 && player.getequipped < Ring ID > == 1

Player.ModActorValue Destruction 100

Player.ModActorValue Illusion 100

Player.ModActorValue HandToHand 200

Player.ModActorValue Strength 100

set GotLight to 1

endif

 

if GotLight == 1 && player.getequipped < Ring ID > == 0

Player.ModActorValue Destruction -100

Player.ModActorValue Illusion -100

Player.ModActorValue HandToHand -200

Player.ModActorValue Strength -100

set GotLight to 0

endif

 

if player.getequipped < Ring ID > == 0 ;just to make sure GotLight is set to 0

set GotLight to 0

endif

 

end

 

Try it this way, although I could not see what was wrong with your origional script.

You are trying to make 2 objects with a different ID, but a script that has a variable dependant on the script for the other ID. That will not work unless you use a refernece to a quest variable.

I don't suppose you would know where a tutorial for it was?

Hmm i tried the CS wiki, but with no luck

You still might find something there though : http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Main_Page

If you have no luck with the CS Wiki let me know ( via PM is best ), I can show you how it's done, but you will have to give me allot more details about what you have done so far and exactly what you are trying to achieve.
