Ambushes not working

[Omesean]

Hello! I'm laying the final hand on my dungeon through which you shall receive my newest creation, Æsir Armor. I've designed everything to be as tough as is humanly possible - you're going to have to bleed for this armour! To do so, I thought it would be fun to have NPCs appearing from ambushes, such as the well-known Draugr suddenly awakening, to a few spiders coming down from the ceiling and Einherjars stepping through walls, ready to rend you to pieces.

The dungeon itself is finished. The navmesh is in place - optimized to the best of my abilities - and the whole place has been cluttered to a Bethesda level. I sunk many hard hours into this part of the mod, and I hope it will be appreciated once I release it. Which, depending on the help I receive here, shall be soon.

However, with the navmesh in place and using exact copies from the prefab warehouse, none of my NPC's assume their ambush positions. They just stand there, as if I were lazy and just threw them in there without any thought of special effects or originality. Traps and puzzles work fine so far, and they use the same technique of traplinkers and triggerboxes like the NPCs do.

I'm really at the end of my line here. I've already identified one possible cause of the issue, being mod incompatibility. Disabling all my mods has caused the ambushes in the latter part of the dungeon (level two, a wholly different cell) to work perfectly. The biggest area, level one, still refuses to work, though.

So I call onto the Nexus to help me in my efforts. I'd like to know if there is anyone out there who has encountered similar problems before and managed to find a fix. I feel this is a ridiculous issue. The tutorials make it look so simple, but nothing ever really is when it comes to modding Bethesda games...

I'm having a similar problem. I have a few lying down draugr ambushes in a catacomb hall. Used them straight from the warehouse. When i test in game, they only show up if i coc from the main menu. any character for a save shows no draugr at all.

 

But here's the weird part, with the menu coc, i cant see potions or the leveled loot i spread across the dungeon, but like i said the ambushes are there. When i use a character fro ma save and COC in, i can see the loot but no draugr. Haven't found a fix yet.
