Noobie question about starting a quest

[randomproduct]

Is it possible to have a quest begin by having the player enter a cell? I can't seem to find any way to get it to work.

Yes you can put a trigger in the cell so when the player enters it triggers a script something like the following:

 

short bStartedQuest

Begin OnTriggerEnter

   if bStartedQuest == 0
       SetStage MyQuest <StartingStage>
       SetObjectiveDisplayed MyQuest <StartingObjective>
       Set bStartedQuest to 1
   endif

End

 

Well something like that, I never played around much with triggers but from what I've seen this is the basic idea I've seen ingame scripts use.
