I am playing around with a mark/recall type of a spell. I've got the basic functionality worked out, now I want to make it more user-friendly.

When the player casts the mark spell, an invisible marker is moved to the player. No problems there.

When the player casts the recall spell, I want him to be presented with a message box that says "Do you wish to teleport to..." and below there would be a button with the name of the cell where the mark currently is. As in, if I mark in Breezehome, it would look like "Do you wish to teleport to..." and the button will say "Breezehome".

Unfortunately, I can't seem to wrap my brain around how to do it. Pointers would be appreciated.

Currently, there's no way to pass strings to a MessageBox shown via http://www.creationkit.com/Show_-_Message, which you'd need to offer options. You could show the cell name using SKSE's http://www.creationkit.com/GetName_-_Form in a MessagBox using http://www.creationkit.com/MessageBox, then offer the options.You could also rename the spell to reflect where it'll teleport you to.

Very interesting. Thank you JustinOther.

Next question... is it possible to present a friendlier name of the cell? Right now it looks like [Cell123456]]

Perhaps it is, but I havent tried it since I have never needed it. However in my mod Nature of the beast II I was able to put into the message box many things like names and races of actors, six and so on. All dynamically. Look at my smell scripts. Perhaps it will be a good start. Goodluck!

Debug.Notification(kCELL)

would read like that, but

Debug.Notification(kCELL.GetName())

should print out the readable name you're after. GetName, of course, requires SKSE.

Cool. GetName works great for indoor cells but fails to return anything for outdoor cells which is a shame.

Most exterioir cells aren't named.
