Place ready script on player.

[Epicolor]

Hello.

 

Im very new to modding and also very green in programing/scripting (only know the very basics).

 

So. I made a little script that should affect the player right after the game loads in. (script probably wont work yet but that will be a later issue).

 

The script is ready, but i don't really know where to "attach" or add this script.

 

In the papyrus tutorial I learned how to add a script to an activator object like a stone, and write text on use.

 

Now my script should change stats on the player if he hits an enemy.

 

My only question is where should i add my script?

 

I tried object/actor/player added on that? Last time i tried it the game crashed after 1 sec it loaded, but maybe just because my code was wrong.

 

Thx for any help in forward.

I think it should be attached to a magic effect. Then you'd create an ability/perk that will use that magic effect and assign it to the player.

Thx gasti89 for the help.

 

Thanks to you I made some prorgress.

 

 

I created an alteration cast spell for it to just test it.

 

Now it is working but it don't want to stack somewhy.

 

I made a counter for it like:

 

float n

 

Event ...

 

n = n + 0.5

 

function +1 + n happen

 

Endevent

 

It looks like the game dont store counters on spells like on objects at all. Only 1.5 happens every time and it dont increase for the next use.

 

I basicly used this part of the tutorial to make things happen differently after more use.

But it looks like spells work differently?

 

 

Update:

 

Fixed the thing by just using game.getplayer().getscale() so I don't have to store information seperatly now.

I don't want to open a new topic so here we go again with a problem.


The mod last time I was trying to create was done and worked. But now that I wanted to improve it, since then I lost the mod because of a reinstall.

I tried to recreate my mod but somehow I can't make it work.. The part of the script of "what to do" is working seperatly, but I forgot how to make the "when to do part".


So here is my basic code:



Scriptname NamiraMod extends activemagiceffect

Event OnInit()

Debug.MessageBox("Mod is Active")

EndEvent

;This even onactive part probably wrong, I tried also Function Feed(), Function StartCannibal() etc.
Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)


; Some Random Things to happen here will get extended (placeholder)

float playerscale

playerscale = game.getplayer().getscale()

playerscale = playerscale + 1.005
game.getplayer().setscale(playerscale)
Debug.MessageBox("Scale changed!")


EndEvent




What I want is when you have the Namira's ring equiped, and you start eating a corpse, you get bigger during the feed animation. (when this is done I will change that placeholder to weight and stat change and to SKSE code)

Last time it worked well but I cant make it work again. I just forgeting out something, and now I starting to mess things up because I don't know what to fix, so there will be probably more error also.


So currently I try it to attach the script to "DA11NamiraBlessingEffect" MagicEffect.

But maybe I should add it to the Item it self, or to the Perk "DA11Cannibalism".

Don't know the answer.


Or maybe I just need the right Event or Function line to make it work when it should work.

 

 

Update:

 

Tipical, just when I try to ask for help after 2 days of searching I find the answer my self.

 

 

I just implemented my script in the line of an already existing one in the DA11Cannibalism Perk. (atleast I now Have a documentation for my self here lol)
