Need help fixing a damned script!!! >:(

[ABVXYzackattack]

Hey I've been working on a script for my custom ecstacy. I want it to increase the effects for each one you "consume" during the duration. And at 5 doses, you die. Here's what it looks like:

 

scn ZEcstacyEffectBackupScript

 

short count

 

Begin ScriptEffectStart

 

player.triggerhitshader 5

ZDancer1Ref.pms ZEcstacyShader

ZDancer2Ref.pms ZEcstacyShader

ZEcstacyBeam1.enable

ZEcstacyBeam2.enable

ZEcstacyBeam3.enable

ZEcstacyBeam4.enable

ZEcstacyBeam5.enable

ZPartyRoomDoor.disable

 

set count to (count + 1)

 

End

 

Begin ScriptEffectUpdate

 

if count >= 1

 

player.triggerhitshader 5

set count to (count - 1)

 

End

 

 

The problem is that after 1 dose, it stops keeping track, so new effects don't load. What can I do to ensure that it keeps adding to the total dose count?

[viennacalling]

Try putting all the contents of the ScriptEffectUpdate block inside the ScriptEffectStart block.

[tunaisafish]

You'll need to keep the 'count' variable outside of the effect script.

Use either a global or a quest variable for that.

 

Each tab of X is getting it's own instance of the script, so each instance of 'count' within will never be greater that 1.

 

BTW, There's a mod that is very similar to what you are doing.

It adds visuals to the alcoholic drinks. More drinks = more visuals.

alright. i get what ur saying i think.

 

so if i made a personal script to the actual object, not the effect that looked like:

 

Begin OnEquip Player

 

set ZEcstacyEffects.count to (ZEcstacyEffects.count + 1)

 

End

 

And then change all the ( count ) variables inside the effect script to ( ZEcstacyEffects.count )
