Crowds of NPC gathering to party behind my house

Post » Sat Nov 17, 2012 12:09 am

Hello all,

So, I made a pretty custom house near Riverwood. Everything fine, but twice now, after waiting a few hours near my house, I witnessed a LOT (maybe 40) NPCs gathering in my backyard.
People from Markarth, Whiterun, even vampires, and I believe people from all around Skyrim. Some fights, they hang out for a few moments, then everyone goes back to their place. I didn't expect my new house to become such a famous spot...
More seriously though, does it sound like I butchered the original navmesh or something ?

Thanks for any advice ! :)

It sure sounds like you've butchered something, but I have no idea what.

You might've set a new spawn point for.. basically all NPC's in the game, at the back of your house. But that seems a bit far-fetched, because accidentally doing that would be less likely than being struck by lightning twice in a row.

Well, silly problem solved. Actually you weren't that far from the truth ! :) I accidentaly replaced a default sandbox at editor loc AI Package (insted of creating a new form) and set my custom house cell as the default editor location. So yeah, basically every NPC using this package (like pretty much... everybody) was coming to chill out in my house.

Thanks for the hint.

Glad you got it fixed, but that was hilarious!

Oh man, I think I might have to make a super dance party mod now.

Yep. I'm doing that.

EDIT: What's the name of the package you messed with?
Also, are there any dance idle markers?
