Enhancing Fallout 3 Crime

[xenaclone]

Hello, I am Xenaclone. I am making a mod which adds a jail, and enhances Fallout 3's crime system. And so far, I've gotten everything to work the way I want it to.

 

The script below is attached to an officer in Megaton. This script causes her to do various things. If the player has no crime for instance, nothing happens. She'll merely sandbox. But if GetMinorCrimeCount is >= 3 or GetMajorCrimeCount >= 1, she'll find the player, and an arrest process begins.

 

 

scriptname aaaEnforcementOfficerScript

short Status

Begin GameMode

;------------------------------------------------------------

; This set of scripts handles the arrest process

If (Player.GetInWorldspace MegatonWorld == 1) && (Status == 0)

If (GetMinorCrimeCount >= 3) || (GetMajorCrimeCount >= 1)

Set Status to 1

aaaMegatonOfficerRef.AddScriptPackage aaaArrestPlayerPackage

EndIf

EndIf

EndIf

There is more to the script, but that's the part I am concerned with.

Problem is, once GetMinorCrimeCount and GetMajorCrimeCount have been set, the officer will "see" only those crime counts, she won't see anything new. So if Minor Crime is 3 for instance, and the Player has paid caps (causing her to go back to Sandboxing) she won't see any additional crimes, which cause Minor Crime to rise to 4, 5, 6, or whatever.

So that is my question. How do I make the officer "see" any new crimes committed?

Goodness this forum is slow. :( But it's amazing the progress one can achieve in just one week. My questions from last week are old news and solved by now.
