Lividpileofdirt Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Hi I've been messing about with a script for Fallout 4, basically what I want is two scripts which reduce the health and armour by a set amount whenever a specific piece of armour is equipped I've used Python and C++ before, but i'm new to python and the interface is confusing me as to what I need to put where Could anyone help me with this please?

Thirdstorm Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Rather than script it why not use the KISS method (tech guys know this one.. "Keep It simple S..." And use an already built in mechanic. Almost all items (armor and weapons) can have a build in object effect, which is an enchantment. Enchantment can modify, +/-, Stats or Actor values such as Endurance, Damage resist, etc. We can create custom enchantments with great ease... So rather than add a unneeded script burden to the players (that could bake in an error into their saves if they remove the mod) why not just make an enchantment, and add it to the object effect?

Thanks for the advice on enchantments, I've managed to get it working now. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
