Need help with making a quest perk

[DarkHoof]

Basically, I'm new to the G.E.C.K. and I wanted to make a small mod that would add different small quest-rewarded perks for completing the quests that are already in the game. I don't know how to make them work without changing the quest reward, as I don't want to mess up any mods that change it.

I wanted to make some kind of a script that'd check if the quest is completed that means the perk is rewarded.

Wonder how to put that function of 1 and 0 to "player.addperk <base id>"

P.s. Yes, I'm really, really dumb.

Update: got a vague idea.

scn <scriptname>

 

Begin GameMode

 

if [GetQuestCompleted <questname> == 1]

player.addperk <perkname>

endif

 

End

I'd add a HasPerk condition as well to make sure it only runs once.

if getQuestCompleted SomeQuest && player.hasPerk != 1
    player.addPerk SomePerk
endif

I'd also put this in a quest, and add StopQuest it in your script so it doesn't stay running at all.

Like, an unmarked quest?

Yeah, quests can be hidden from the player. They run silently in the background.

Made a perk, a quest and a script attached to it. However, there are a few problems -

the script won't do the thing and when in-game I type "player.addperk 13000add" (ID is totally correct) the console says that it's an "Invalid perk". Also, I have GECK Power-up installed and when I try to save the script after I add "showmessage GainSurvivorPerk" to it, a warning pops up, saying that there isn't a "MessageBox parameter". And until I deleted the message part it didn't let me save.

P.s. I have to remind that the console says "Invalid perk" when I try to add the perk, not "There isn't a perk". The message differs from "There isn't a perk" one, I checked that,

Do you have the quest set as Start Game Enabled?

[Ladez]

Please paste the script so we can have a look.

 

The invalid perk error in the console is because you're using the AddPerk function with something that isn't a perk. Make sure that both the form ID and the load order index is correct.

 

The error about a missing messagebox parameter is because the message you're trying to show has a format specifier in the text and you didn't provide the parameter that it requires. You can read more about format specifiers on the GECK wiki.
