When spawning an NPC, how do you get their approach to be viewed as a cut-scene? (ie: you are unable to move during the time they're running up to you) You start the dialog immediately before the NPC moves to you. Add a blank dialog entry first wi...  [Read More]

I don't know if it makes a difference to your problem, but you should remove ActionDoCommand() from ActionDoCommand(SetCommandable(FALSE,oNPC));. ActionDoCommand would put it in the action queue, thus it would only get triggered after all the other...  [Read More]

Just looked. Nothing of the sort running. In which file is it scripted? If you mean which script checks how wounded the Handmaiden is and stops the fight when she reaches 1 VP, that's done in k_oei_userdef in the custom OnDamaged event. This event i...  [Read More]

Yeah, I've tried. I've also tried modding the game with KSE and removing the other mod. Now, all fights with Handmaiden are never ending. Kinda sucks. Is the Handmaiden equipped with any items that provide increased health regeneration, or do you us...  [Read More]

As far as I know this is a bug that can happen sometimes. Have you tried reloading a savegame from before the fight? I don't think the Handmaiden choice for female exiles Mod makes any changes to the sparring matches you have with the Handmaiden....  [Read More]

Just for future reference, how does the script differ if you actually want to move the item? You'd replace the DestroyObject() line with... ActionTakeItem(oItem, GetFirstPC()); ...provided that the conversation owner is the NPC who should receive...  [Read More]

The NPCs have managed to fight a little while longer, but still stop at some point during the attack. Weird. But maybe that was because this time, I wasn't fighting. I thought that because the NPCs began fighting without the PC fighting, it didn't ma...  [Read More]

Okay, great, it works. Funny thing, though, is that they attack one round, and then stop. What's the problem? Are you attacking the enemies, or just standing cheering on the sidelines? :) I got the impression you only wanted the NPCs to attack enemi...  [Read More]

Oh yeah, of course. But I don't see the OnCombatRound in the .utc file. There's OnAttacked and OnEndRound though. It's ScriptEndRound if you go by the GFF field labels in the UTC file (since field labels can be at most 16 characters in length). That...  [Read More]
