How to make an item that upon interacting with it teleports you to an interior?

[CinnamonMods]

I would like to use the elevator button to teleport the player to a custom interior. Would that be possible, and if so how?

[Reneer]

It's certainly possible. You would simply need to attach a script to the elevator button and use the following code. Please note my Oblivionscript is rusty as heck and there may be ways to improve on this. Importantly, I haven't tried to compile it since I don't have Oblivion installed anymore. I hope this is helpful.

Thank you!

 

Silly question, but where can I find my interiors cell marker or am I supposed to make one?

[Reneer]

Oh, actually, upon further inspection on best practices we should be activating the door for the interior cell. I've updated the script above. You should change YourDoorRef to whatever the persistent reference of the exterior door that leads to your interior cell.
