Hi, i'm trying to add a custom function in the "Condition Function" list. I'm talking about the list u can scroll when adding a condition to, for example, a recipe (like HasPerk, isThis, isThat...).
I tryed to create and compile a script like this

Scriptname _RepConditions Conditionalbool Function hasRightWeap () globalif (game.getplayer() as _PlayerExt).arma != none  return trueelse  return falseendifendfunction

hoping "hasRightWeap" to appear in the list, but i had no success. Maybe i misunderstood the meaning of conditional flag

bump

I dont know if is possible to make a conditional function, but certainly it can be done with property.

Scriptname TestConditional Conditional  Int Property  TestCond = 1 Auto Conditionalbool Function hasRightWeap () globalendfunction

Add this script for example to an NPC.
Now in package Tab condition select function GetVmScriptVariable Target Reference ID the NPC with the conditional script, in variable you should see your conditional property to check (in the above example, TestCond).

The way I read it your script would appear as "_RepConditions" in the list.

Wow! Yeah, i think that will work. With the function (without "global" flag i think) i'll update the property, that i can get by GetVmScriptVariable. Just a little tricky, but we are talking about bethesda


So you are telling me that it is possible?
But if i put the Condition Function name on the script title, where i write the logic and the values to return?

"Conditional" is a flag, recognised by the Creation Kit and ignored by the compiler, and there are no flags that are valid for use on functions.

The "conditional" flag can be used on properties, but only "auto" properties, so you can't use a custom "get" function for a property to do what you want. The closest thing you could do is use an auto property or a variable with the "conditional" flag, and set it whenever it needs to be set.

See http://www.creationkit.com/Flag_Reference for more information on flags.

Also, it looks like you've attached a script directly to the player reference. Don't do that - use a http://www.creationkit.com/ReferenceAlias_Script instead.

Thanks, the Property with conditional flag works well with "GetVmScriptVariable"


Yes, i did that because i'm not sure how to use RefAlias. Tell me if this is right:
1- I create a quest (duplicate, if i create a quest CK crashes on "ok") with a ReferenceAlias (with an assigned script "_PlayerExt") on the Player Reference.
2- I assure that the quest start and run, since the game is loaded (i failed here, and decided for Assigning the script on the player Reference
3- When i've to use something on the _playerExt, how can i reach that, instead of "game.getplayer() as _playerExt"?

What are the side effects of attaching a script to the player ref? It will not work, or just compatibility issue with any other mod that changes player ref?

That method sounds right, although I don't have the Creation Kit with me at the moment to try it out myself.

In order to access the http://www.creationkit.com/ReferenceAlias_Script, you'll need to call http://www.creationkit.com/GetAlias_-_Quest on your http://www.creationkit.com/Quest_Script.

You can use http://www.creationkit.com/GetActorReference_-_ReferenceAlias as a general way of getting the http://www.creationkit.com/Actor_Script at which your alias is pointing, although if it'll always be the player then you don't need to use that method.

The side effects are compatibility issues and, more importantly, that scripts are not removed from objects when a mod is uninstalled. If you add a script to the player, it will remain attached when your mod is uninstalled, but if you use an alias then the alias is removed with the mod and everything should be just fine.

Yeah, i didn't tought to that. I can still use game.getplayer() because the script is still attached to the player ref. It's just a different (read "correct" ) way to attach it

My intention (for now) is to create a total overhaul, modifing a lot of thing, adding features like "item durability" (what i'm working on now). So it is intended for a fresh started game with low campatibility with other mods. I think i did worst, changing OnHit() in "Actor" script
