Resurrection + Timer script help

[Guest]

Jusging by Abramul's far larger grasp of the TESscript than mine, I'd say go with his...it looks solid to me.

I believe OnDeath only runs once. Actually, looking at the original scripts, this may be the problem. I would suggest altering the preceding script like this:

 

scn MySecretScriptName

float timer

begin OnDeath
set timer to 25
PlayMagicShaderVisuals creatureEffectLichNether 30
end

begin GameMode

if( timer > 1 )
set timer to  timer - getSecondsPassed
if( timer <= 1 )
	PlaySound AMBThunder
	Resurrect 1
	set timer to 0
endif
endif
end

 

I'm not sure if you need to initialize the timer. From what I've seen, however, it appears you don't. You may want to wrap the if(timer>1)...endif in a GetDead, not sure about that.

 

Noticed a major logic error: since GetSecondsPassed isn't necessarily a whole number, using a timer==1 would likely prevent the script from working almost every time.

 

You could also just use an if/else, as shown here:

That one worked perfectly Abramul! Thanks! I make sure you get your credits :)
