stonefly Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I'm trying too find the script command needed too look up how much magicka the player has. And then the command needed too remove X amount of magicka from the player. Just like a spell does. I'm trying too make a mod that adds a bow that automatically summons it's own arrows as they are used. Right now the mod works, but the arrows cost nothing too summon. I would like too give the arrows a magicka cost too summon each one so that the bow isn't completely free too use. I had seen how too do this once before, but it has been so long since I have worked on this mod that I can't remember where I found the commands. I have already searched through the net looking for the commands needed, but can't seem too find them. Any idea what they are?
Septfox Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 GetActorValue can fetch the player's magika, among other things. Check out the Stats List page for a full listing. As for draining magika for each shot, hmm. Normally I would suggest a simple Damage Magika spell, but I'm not sure how you would implement it from a script. ModActorValue2 might work, but I think that would probably end up lowering your magika maximum, not just your current magika.
stonefly Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 aah yes. GetActorValue is one of the commands I was looking for. Thanks. Just couldn't quite remember it for some reason. As for the other. You do have a good point. ModAV looks like it is a permanent change. And I'm not sure how too call a spell from an item script like this either. I'm sure there is a way around this though.
David Brasher Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 You want to alter "magicka poo?" That doesn't sound very nice. Like some sort of night soil or fertilizer.
stonefly Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 hah... yeah... it cut off part of the topic. that and I tried too say too much. so yes, it does sound a bit silly.
