LE Need help with scripting a quest fragment

[HailHell]

i tried simply addign this line but it does not work, even if i include properties or try to make them via the properties button plz help

 

 

PlayerRef.AddToFaction(FalmerFaction)

[Mattiewagg]

What doesn't work?

[HailHell]

When i add PlayerRef.AddToFaction(FalmerFaction) to the papyrus fragment it throws errors at me, i want to change an npc's faction depending on player choice so that the npc attacks the player if he chooses wrong.

[skinnytecboy]

Try Game.GetPlayer().AddToFaction(FalmerFaction)

 

​Obviously you need to set faction in properties first. :blush:

In your line of code PlayerRef & FalmerFaction both require properties. You can avoid a property for PlayerRef by using Game.GetPlayer() as skinnytecboy suggested. The FalmerFaction must have a property set up before it can be used in the fragment.

 

What errors are being thrown at you?

PlayerRef.AddToFaction(FalmerFaction)

 

i cant use game.getplayer() because it is for an npc

If you are wanting to change the npc faction (assuming the speaking npc), what is here currently will change the player's faction membership. akSpeaker is used for the speaking NPC.

 

 

 

akSpeaker.AddToFaction (FalmerFaction)

 

 

 

It is helpful to post full error messages since the error message provides useful information on the specific problem and hints on what you need to change (won't tell the solution though)

 

Please post the error message so we can help you better

when i try to click the properties button with the code i get an error message saying:

 

 

errors encountered while attempting to reload the script!

Ok, this is a weird CK bug. Comment out your current fragment, and do a simple function such as Utility.wait (0.1). Compile that, and add the properties after. Once the properties are added, remove the wait, and uncomment your original fragment

[IsharaMeradin]

You cannot add properties inside of a fragment. Fragments are functions and properties must be defined outside of them. Also, you cannot add properties to a script that does not yet exist.

 

Here is what you need to do:

In the fragment box type the following

 

;place holder text

Compile the script fragment.

OK to close out the quest

Re-open the quest.

Go to the stage, click on the properties button and add your properties.

Replace the place holder text with your fragment code

Compile

 

Should have no errors throughout the process unless your script code itself has issues.
