Enabling an Xmarker with a Terminal

[chucksteel]

OK, I'm trying to have a terminal enable and disable an Xmarker which is the activating parent of several other objects. I'm trying to use the Papyrus fragment in the form I've added a property.

 

I'm using "myRef.enable()" in the fragment.

 

I get this when I try to compile. I can't get it to work and I'm unsure of a vanilla form to look at as an example.

Here's an image of the terminal window.

 

 

 

I didn't mod Skyrim and now it seems the easiest thing in the world to do in FO3/NV has now become overly complicated.

 

what am I missing

 

thanks for any help

The issue you are having is that, in your script, you should have this:

BTInt_Options.Enable()

BTInt_Options_Door_Ref is the reference that the Property BTInt_Options is set to - in Papyrus you can't simply point to the name of the reference, which is why you need to use a Property. Edited May 4, 2016 by Reneer

Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!

 

I just spent about three or four hours trying to figure this out! Reading tutorials, watching videos and ether I missed something or I'm very very dumb. :wallbash:

 

Worked like a charm! :dance:

Don't worry, it confused the heck out of me too when I first started writing scripts for Skyrim.
