» Sun Jan 06, 2013 12:13 pm This seems to work fine, the stone lights up and the follower gets the ability. However, whenever I fast travel together with the follower the effects stop when we arrive. It seems that the follower still has the magical ability, but it doesn't do anything anymore. To get it working again, I have to first make the follower use the stone once to remove the ability, and then again to add it.
If I give the same spell to a follower using the creation kit, the effect is truly constant and lasts even if we fast travel.
Does anyone know what to do to make a spell applied to an NPC by a script permanent?
Here is the most relevant part of the script:

if bBerserker && obj AS ACTOR npc = obj as actor if npc.hasSpell(pDoomBerserkerAbility) npc.removeSpell(pDoomBerserkerAbility) else npc.addSpell(pDoomBerserkerAbility) SELF.playAnimation("playanim01") endif endifAnd the entire script, most of the code has not been changed from the vanilla powerShrineScript
