[LE] Tome of the Master

[dewdropcat]

So I have a mod idea that will allow the player to gain access to every spell in the game just by reading a specific spell tome. I just can't figure out how to make it so I can put more than one spell on the book. Any ideas are welcome.

Script with an onread event then run down the list of spells adding each to the player?

[dewdropcat]

What would the script be for that? I am quite new to scripting and modding in general.

I tried this script but it didn't work. My character didn't gain anything from it. How can I fix this?

And have you made and filled properties for all those spells?

 

You'd write them like this:

Spell Property WhateverName Auto

One property for each spell, and then fill them in the property window, if you name them as the forms (like you seem to have in the code) then you can click the Auto-Fill button. So you'll have something like this:

Scriptname.......

Spell Property BaneOfTheUndead Auto
Spell Property BanishDaedra Auto
etc

Event OnRead()
    Debug.Trace("You feel as though your knowledge of magic has been expanded greatly")
    Game.GetPlayer().AddSpell(BaneoftheUndead)
    Game.GetPlayer().AddSpell(BanishDaedra)
etc
EndEvent

Whenever I try to add a property, I get an error

[nerdofprey]

I don't know if it's just me reading that wrong, but do you actually have "NewScript" in there instead of the name of your script, and "NewProperty" instead of the names of the spells? Cause that would definitely be a major problem...

[foamyesque]

A much simpler piece of script would pull them from a formlist:

 

 

FormList Property SpellList Auto

Event OnRead()
    if !SpellList
        return
    endif

    Actor PlayerRef = Game.GetPlayer()
    if !PlayerRef
        return
    endif
        
    int i = SpellList.GetSize()
    while i > 0
        i-=1
        Spell testSpell = SpellList.GetAt(i)
        if testSpell
            PlayerRef.AddSpell(testSpell)
        endif
    endwhile
EndEvent

 

This way you only require one property, a formlist that contains every spell you want to add.

So, I'm new at coding. I tried to do a property but it didn't work when I tested it.

Okay, so to fill properties, there'll be a 'fill properties' button next to the script window. It will allow you to select any of the appropriate forms to fill into the property, which will then pass the information to the game when the script actually gets called.
