A Papyrus Script to Toggle a Designated Effect

[Altrunchen]

So what I'm trying to do is make a script that allows a player to use an activator in game so as to enable or disable an effect that is linked in some way to the activator. I would really appreciate it if someone would please help me with this.

 

Here is my attempt so far:

 

Scriptname FXToggleSwitch extends ObjectReference

{This is to allow effects to be toggled in game with activators.}

 

ObjectReference function Switch

ObjectReference function Effect

Int Property Duration

 

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference Switch)

Effect.enable (duration)

Endevent

 

Here are the error messages:

You really need to read some scripting tutorials...

 

Scriptname FXToggleSwitch extends ObjectReference
{This is to allow effects to be toggled in game with activators.}

ObjectReference Property Effect Auto
Int Property Duration Auto

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)
Effect.Enable()
Utility.Wait(Duration)
Effect.Disable()
Endevent
