1. I think u must to use && between conditions.
example

 

 

scn xyz

Begin ondeath

if (001ref.getdead == 1) && (002ref.getdead == 1)

additem caps001 187 1

endif

end

2. You must use

"=="

"!="

"<"

">"

"<="

">="

Hi I'm need help to write a script that will do the following,

 

I am look to through a speech activation replace one npc with another.

 

Sorry if this is a newbie question

Give the two NPCs unique Ref IDs then use this:

NPCRef2.moveto NPCRef1
NPCRef1.disable 
MPCRef2.enable

All this requires is that your second NPC is somewhere in the world and set to be initially disabled.

Thanks Pkleiss, this worked unfortunately I'm trying to diable wadsworth but it wont work :/ any ideas how to get rid of him?

[pkleiss]

Wadsworth, isn't a persistent reference. So you will have to make him so in order to use his ref ID (Wadsworth01) in a script. If you don't already know how to do that, just double click on him in the player's house cell in the geck and check the persistent reference box on his reference window, save and exit and poof - wadsworth should be able to be made gone via script.

Thanks, I had already made him a persistent reference to use him in the script, but he still wont disable :/

Well, that was a long pause...

 

Perhaps you are using a dirty save? You can try a couple of things.

 

1) Go wait in some other interior cell other than the player's house. Wait for more than 3 days (3 days plus one hour should do it). This should force a reload of the player's home cell when you re-enter it. Then go back and see if Wadsworth can be disabled now.

OR

2) Try starting a new game or loading from a save from before the player ever entered the Megaton player's house for the first time. That way you are sure to be not using any residual data from your save.

 

Other than that, I'm not sure what isn't working with your mod, becasue that disable function should work easily.

Thanks Pkleiss, I'll give this a try later, unfortunately my connection seems to be lagging so can't try this remotely. while I'm waiting to try that I don't know if you can help me with another one. I'm working on a mod for another person that wants an ability to laydown on the bed like the NPC's with out actually sleeping, I've worked in the menu in to the bed but I can't seem to find how to force the player to use the animation, I know when I originally started out years ago, I managed to do it by accident using a creating a static bed item but to do that would mean that I would have to change all the beds in the game. I've seen notes about forcing an animation through castimmidatelyonself but i can't figure out how to make the animation in spells/effects. I'm currently using the BedTwin01 in the MegatonPlayerHouse to figure it out.

 

Thanks in advance for all your help upto and continued.
