Stop Animation In Papyrus - Please Help

[demidekidasu]

Hi all,

 

I am working on a new feature for my LIAT - Lively Inns And Taverns mod, where it adds a keg of "local brew" behind the bar of inns. I managed to put a script together which makes your character play out a "drink" idle, then a "drunk start" idle, then a "uncontrollable cough" idle to make it look like vomiting lol

 

Here is the script I chucked together that is attached to the "local brew" object, which runs when the player activates the object. So far, it seemingly works perfect aside from one issue:

 

Scriptname LIATdrinkbrew extends ObjectReference
{Strong local brew}

idle property IdleDrink auto
idle property IdleDrunkStart auto
idle property IdleUncontrollableCough auto

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)

Debug.MessageBox("You down a flaggon of the strong local brew...")

	game.getplayer().playidle (IdleDrink)

		Utility.Wait(10.00)

Debug.MessageBox("The brew hits you like a mad sabre cat!")

	game.getplayer().playidle (IdleDrunkStart)

		Utility.Wait(60.00)

	game.getplayer().playidle (IdleUncontrollableCough)

		Utility.Wait(10.0)

			Debug.MessageBox("The strong brew has found its way to the floor... You feel much better now, but should sit down for a moment.")

endevent

 

 

So, the problem is that the drunk animation will not stop. I put in the vomit animation and the message suggesting to sit down in the hope that either of these actions/animations will reset the idle, but it doesn't.

 

Is there a line I can put in that will force a reset/stop of the idle/animation?

 

I also have another bug with the drunk animation but I will try to fix it on my own first :)

 

Huge thanks in advance to anyone who may know. I have been searching the wiki and google to no avail so far. I am quite new to scripting, BTW :P

Solved.

 

Found this line on the wiki:

game.getplayer().PlayIdle (IdleStop_Loose)

 

Had to modify it slightly though, as the example on there returned compile errors...

how did you modify it? I am having the same trouble too.

Thread necromancy much :P

 

I can't really remember. It's a long time ago if I'm honest...

 

Bear in mind you need to define the idle in the properties section of your script. Could that be your problem?

debug.SendAnimationEvent(NPCPlayer,"IdleStop_Loose")

debug.SendAnimationEvent(NPCPlayer,"IdleForceDefaultState")

 

 

where NPCPlayer is defined somewhere either as an actor npc or the player

The door is a gamebro animation you have to use the gamebro commands.
