Scripting Help [Fast Travel]

[ajs52698]

So I have been trying to figure out just enough about scripting to make the foundation for a fast travel mod, but im not getting very far. I am wondering if anyone could either right the script for me or help me do it myself. What im trying to achieve is this .

 

 

Player activates object bringing up a dialog with travel options.

 

Each travel option triggers a teleportation script? moving the player to a different location.

 

The travel options also need resource requirements depending on the distance.

Here's a tutorial, you'll probably want to watch the earlier ones in the series though which will cover aspects like creating the menu or setting up the properties for your script.

 

 

(It's for Skyrim but that doesn't matter for most purposes).

I did something like wat you want to do in my mod APC transport I left the source scripts in the download you can have a look at those.

So ive made some progress but when i select a place to travel nothing happens, any ideas?

 

Scriptname RocketTravelMain extends objectreference

Message Property RocketTravel222 auto

Objectreference DrumlinDiner

Event onActivate (objectreference akaction)

SHowMenu()

Endevent

Function ShowMenu(int aibutton = 0)

aibutton = RocketTravel222.show()

If aibutton == 0

elseif aibutton == 1

Game.FastTravel(DrumlinDiner)

elseif aibutton == 2

elseif aibutton == 3

elseif aibutton == 4

elseif aibutton == 5

elseif aibutton == 6

elseif aibutton == 7

elseif aibutton == 8

elseif aibutton == 9

elseif aibutton == 10

elseif aibutton == 11

endif

endfunction

The place you fast travel to needs to be a filled in property like this:

 

ObjectReference Property DrumlinDiner Auto

Then in the CK go to your script and go to properties select your DrumlinDiner property/edit property/select reference in object window. And then iether select something you want to teleport to at the drumlin diner or place a new xmarkerheading there and select that.

Ah that works thanks, its funny how simple some of this coding stuff is, the only difficult part is understanding what everything is used for and putting it all together

[ajs52698]

alright now im trying to find a simple way to give each selection a travel location and this is what im thinking I can use. http://www.creationkit.com/index.php?title=GetFormFromFile_-_Game but im not sure how to go about doing it

[LoneRaptor]

I don't think you can use that as the fast travel function requires an Objectreference not a formID.

[ajs52698]

well what i was wondering is instead of typing out all the objectreference locations i can create a formlist which has all the locations and somehow set the blah hard time explaining

 

Game.FastTravel ( Form List Index Number here instead of Objectreference) this is what i was thinking i could do

 

if this is not possible then is there a simpler way to go about specifying locations to travel to?
