Noob Question - Sitting Npc

[Hamacek]

Hi all,

 

Have starting reinventing my Morrowind mod Musica Prima for Oblivion.

 

I've made NPC #1 and would like it to just sit in a particular chair and do nothing else for now

 

Anyone know how to do this simply? Do I need to use AI to get it into the chair with PickIdle or can I do it some other way?

 

Any suggestions appreciated :huh:

I don't know that much about AI (yet) but I believe you need to use the useitem function, and select the particular chair as the target. :)

 

Of course you will still have to choose when he does it and for how long.... Maybe you know how to do that already or maybe it is simple, I don't know.

Open your chair's edition window, make it persistent reference by checking checkbox, give your chair a nice name so you can easily find it afterwards in a drop-down menu (you don't have to give it any name, all you need is to check persistent reference checkbox, but sometimes it's hard to find reference you need if you have a lot of persistent references in your cell, so I, for example, usually use names like MyNPCsitshere :))

Then make a Find AI package for you NPC and give him your chair as a target. That's it. :)
