Player Death Parameters in CK?

Post » Sun Nov 18, 2012 12:59 pm

Hi everyone,

I've been digging around in the CK for the parameters relating to what occurs when a player dies. By default, it appears that when the player dies, you get a triggered third-person "death" view and then the game automatically reloads to your previous save. I'd assumed that all of this is bound to a vanilla quest, but can't seem to locate it (possibly because I need a lot more coffee). Anyone have insight into where to find these parameters, or are they part of the code Bethesda hasn't released in the CK?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Mujuro

To my knowledge, player death handling is hardcoded into the engine - It isn't exposed to Papyrus.

I have messed around and found if you delete the last saved game right when the player has died. the game wont reload and you can resurrect the player... the enable player controls need to be set as you have limited movement etc...
Not sure there is any function to this but thought Id pass it on.

That's what I'm thinking, as I've not been able to find anything in the CK that would allow me to alter the parameters. :( Ugh. (I'm trying to stop the auto-reload on death and allow any followers to continue battling and, if a healer-follower survives, resurrect the player). I guess that won't be happening. :P

Thanks!

Thanks! I'm not sure I really want to mess around with people's savegames; that would likely get undesired knocks on my door by irate players. :P

Try the death by attachashpile to player... of course maybe you can attach a body ? but I think this stops the load ...
