Scripting help

[monkeyboi]

okay so i changed the script around but for some reason it wont appear on the list of scripts...

is there some stupid reason why that i could be missing?

[WastelandAssassin]

this is strange......

have you saved the script, and changed it's name before??

because if not, then you have just changed the original script

also, if you used that template for the script, then the mod that adds it is a master for your plugin (at least as far as i know)

so you need to load it as well, or just copy\paste the script, to prevent it being the master

okay so i got the script ingame and you were correct.

all it did was give me the other spell.

 

what is the command to cast a spell on player?

[monkeyboi]

alright i got a basic code up but every time i try to save it i get an error message

here is my code:

Scriptname 1ashieldtogglenodrainscript

 

Begin ScriptEffectStart

 

If player.IsSpellTarget 1ashield5== 0

player.cast 1ashield5

endif

else

If player.IsSpellTarget 1ashield5== 1

player.dispel 1ashield5

endif

 

End

 

the error:

line6 missing ObjectReferenceID

i have no clue what that means...

any advice on that?

I made a mod that's kinda like what you're talking about here. It's called Spellshields, and the link is in my signature in Oblivion mods. You're welcome to look at the scripts to check out how I did it. I'm not sure if it works exactly the way you want to set up your spells, but maybe it'll help you out a little.

i think the problem is with your ifs and else

remove the else, and change the second if to an elseif

and also remove the first endif

this should solve this problem

then try to save the script, and we'll see if any other problem pops up

ok, sorry it took so long (school). but i tried that and i still get the same error...

ill keep trying and posting...

 

documn i looked at your mod, first i like it it has a cool concept. i just need to figure out what your scripts do...

i don't recognize some of those commands

 

 

EDIT:

okay, i got the error to go away, and the spell is cast able.

but when i do i get the alteration XP and no enchantment...

i think what is happening is that the effect could be turning on then off too quickly...

 

 

code:

Scriptname 1ashieldtogglenodrainscript

 

Begin ScriptEffectStart

 

If ( player.IsSpellTarget 1ashield5== 0 )

cast 1ashield5 player

elseif (player.Ispelltarget 1ashield5==1)

player.dispel 1ashield5

endif

 

End

 

EDIT2:

so i got the toggle to work, all i did was add a time to the shield spell, but for some reason when i try setting time to zero it just wont work.

 

for now ill just set the effect to some ungodly time,

or try changing it from a 'spell' (1ashield5) to a power...

okay toggle works.

i think i know how to get the players magicka (getav magicka)

but i set it to

 

elseif (player.getav magicka <=0)

player.dispel <spell>

 

but when my magicka hits 0 the spell continues...

[WastelandAssassin]

i think this command gives you the max magicka, not the current one

 

i'm sorry i can't be more helpful, but my knowledge is limited......

[monkeyboi]

the command to change stats is modAv, setAV or forceAV... i thought... ill keep trying/posting
