How to get reference?

stonefisher · June 30, 2017

I am trying to scan for in world objects with a keyword so a script will run when an animation is detected.

I was thinking of using "Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)" and then scanning for keywords but I dont know how to get the reference of the item selected.

Well, written a script and the compiler complaints are endless :)

Scriptname ATaAH_Terminal extends Quest

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)
	If akActionRef == Game.GetPlayer()
		ObjectReference TerminalRef = game.GetReference()
		If TerminalRef.GetBaseObject() is Terminal
			If Game.GetPlayer(GetScale()) == PlayerScale
				TerminalRef.Disable
				Game.GetPlayer.SetScale(1.0)
				TerminalRef.Enable
				TerminalRef.Activate(Game.GetPlayer())
			Else 
				ObjectReference PlayerScale = Game.GetPlayer(GetScale())
				TerminalRef.Disable
				TerminalRef.Enable
				TerminalRef.Activate(Game.GetPlayer())
			EndIf
		EndIf
	EndIf
EndEvent

Event OnExitFurniture(ObjectReference akActionRef)
	If akActionRef == Game.GetPlayer()
		Game.GetPlayer.SetScale(PlayerScale)
	EndIf
EndEvent

So basically you want that script to run for every activated terminal object?

Yep, not that it works at all.

it won't work that way. I can suggest you correct solution but don't get what that script should do as it has lot mistakes. Can you explain idea behind it?

stonefisher · July 1, 2017

Its designed for people who resize the player to be anything other than size 1. Unlike the old games where it didnt matter, in fallout 4 the terminal screen becomes misaligned when you try to use it while not the correct size.

redone script for spotted logic issues:

Scriptname ATaAH_Terminal extends Quest

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)
	If akActionRef == Game.GetPlayer()
		ObjectReference TerminalRef = game.GetReference()
		If TerminalRef.GetBaseObject() is Terminal
			If Game.GetPlayer(GetScale()) == 1
			Else 
				ObjectReference PlayerScale = Game.GetPlayer(GetScale())
                                Game.GetPlayer.SetScale(1.0)
				TerminalRef.Disable
				TerminalRef.Enable
				TerminalRef.Activate(Game.GetPlayer())
			EndIf
		EndIf
	EndIf
EndEvent

Event OnExitFurniture(ObjectReference akActionRef)
	If akActionRef == Game.GetPlayer()
		Game.GetPlayer.SetScale(PlayerScale)
	EndIf
EndEvent

This script was supposed to on activate check that its the player doing it and that the item is a terminal.

Then if player is not size 1, record player size, set player scale to 1 interrupt and then activate the terminal again.

Then on exit of terminal the player is returned to original size.

1)First of all create new global variable. We will need that below.
2) Then create new perk. We will need that as well.

2)You cannot use OnActivate and OnExitFurniture in Quest type scripts they are events of ObjectReference script. (well you can use with remote event registration but it's bad option for this case, just believe me). We will still use one remote event though. remove everything from that quest script. paste this script:

GlobalVariable Property myglobvar Auto
Perk Property myperk Auto


Event OnInit()
	RegisterForRemoteEvent(Game.getplayer(),"OnGetUp")
        Game.getplayer().addperk(myperk)
endevent


Event Actor.OnGetUp(Actor akSender, ObjectReference akFurniture)
	if (akFurniture is Terminal)
		Game.GetPlayer.SetScale(myglobvar.getvalue())
	endif
endEvent

Fill properties with perk and global variable you created earlier.

Then open your perk, add new entry everything should be like on this image:
http://i.imgur.com/yLXHvxh.png

Use this script for copy:

If !(Game.GetPlayer().GetScale() == 1)
	myglobvar.setvalue( Game.GetPlayer().GetScale())
       Game.GetPlayer().SetScale(1.0)
	akTargetRef.Disable()
	akTargetRef.Enable()
	akTargetRef.Activate(Game.GetPlayer())
EndIf

Btw you had problems in script. GetScale() cannot used as parameter. It is method which can be called on reference of player which is game.getplayer(). Also return value of getscale() is float not objectreference.

stonefisher · July 2, 2017

Well.

looks like this is suffering the same problem unfortunately:

Scriptname ATaAH_Quest_Script extends Quest
 
GlobalVariable Property ATaAH_GlobalVariable Auto
Perk Property ATaAH_Perk Auto
 
Event OnInit()
  RegisterForRemoteEvent(Game.getplayer(),"OnGetUp")
  Game.getplayer().addperk(ATaAH_Perk)
endevent
 
Event Actor.OnGetUp(Actor akSender, ObjectReference akFurniture)
  if (akFurniture is Terminal)
    Game.GetPlayer().SetScale(ATaAH_GlobalVariable.GetValue())
  endif
endEvent

For first script error try. If (akFurniture.getbaseobject() is Terminal)

For second you have given different global variable property name and the one you use has different name than property.

P.s very often if you read errors they directly tell you what's a problem

deadbeeftffn · July 2, 2017

... and you globalvariable shouldn'd be Const. Otherwise you can't setvalue() it.
