By grabbing, I mean holding the E key, in standard configurations. Not picking it up into your inventory.

The specific case is this: I have an actor that starts dead but is eventually revived later during a quest. Obviously, allowing the player to drag his body all around the world would break the logic of the quest and scenes.

I can't find a function to stop dragging so what I tried was to call DisablePlayerControls() and EnablePlayerControls() in the OnGrab() Event. My hope was that the E key would appear as not being held anymore, so the grabbing would cancel immediately. Apparently, that doesn't work so, any ideas?

Does BlockActivation work atall?

Nope. I already had that in place to disable looting the body before I realized I could drag him around.

What about setting the weight super high through scripting?

Good idea! (I should have thought of that )

Thanks

I call it the "Sleeping Snorlax" trick

(yep I'm a sad git)

If it has no name, it cannot be grabbed.

SetDestroyed() will also work

I can't believe you just made me google that

I couldn't find out how to change the weight with scripting but I used the Reset() function in the OnGrab() event. Not the most elegant solution but it also works.


Are you sure? I called that function and it still allowed me to drag him normally.

Lol gotta catch'em all

SetDestroyed also didn't work for me.

sorry, i didnt realize you are trying this on an actor. the setdestroyed works for havok enabled moveable ground objects, not actors
