[LE] How adding keyword to listener via dialogue ?(papyrus)

[akigami]

The only way to dynamically add keywords to things is with aliases. Why do you think an alias won't work for you?

I could be wrong, but while I was studying the question I got information that the aliases are temporary and not permanent

Aliases can be temporary; they can be filled with different things at different times, the quest can be stopped, they can be cleared, etc. But you don't have to do any of those. Every single mod with an MCM menu? They have a quest with a player alias in it that never gets emptied out or stopped.

hmm, try using them

[ReDragon2013]

sometimes it is helpful to tick on "optional" by using ReferenceAlias

 

Another way would be (Give NPC a unique key that you have created)

TheNPC.AddKeyIfNeeded(TheKey)    ; variant A

TheNPC.AddItem(TheKey, 1)        ; variant B

and use this to do what you want

 IF (TheNPC.GetItemCount > 0)
    ; NPC has the key
 ELSE
    ; NPC does not have the key
 ENDIF

If unique key is no more useful, remove it from inventory with

TheNPC.RemoveItem(TheKey, 1)

Is it possible to make a restriction for example 2 keys? if >2 then not add key, idea with key notbad and easy, with alias not work so far but see

There were a couple more questions, how to get through the dialogue from npc a copy of the key from his house ?

and how to make npc objects yours (in the NPC house, for example eat) ?(if you take something from a npc, it is not stil)

 

 

for 1q)I think can bind an object by type to an alias and use it via Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(name_alias) but i do not understand how bind type object to var

for 2q)set faction object to var and join player in this faction, but again how to realize ?

What you want to use are Properties[/iurl[. They work a lot like variables for the most part (the exceptions aren't relevant here).

 

The key piece is that properties, unlike variables, can be set up to hold game objects directly in the CK, through the Edit Properties button in the script windows.

 

So, for example, in your script, you could have:

 

 

Key Property KeyToAdd Auto

 

And then, you'd open up the property menu and it will let you choose the what that property should hold from a dropdown list of every key in the game.

 

Or, you for the faction approach, you could go:

 

 

Faction Property FactionToAdd Auto

And do the same thing. I suspect there may be a default script that will do this for you already, in fact.

yes, if key or faction know, but if no ? in this problem or i understand...

Oh, you want a general solution, for any given NPC? That's more difficult. You could use SetRelationshipRank instead of manipulating factions to make the NPC friendly, which means you only need to know which NPC you're talking to, and that's easy. As far as keys go... I'm not sure of a general solution. You could check their inventory for any keys and add copies of them, but that will produce (I assume) undesired results if the NPC has had their inventory of keys messed with.
