Papyrus Error "GetReference is not a function or does no : V

» Wed Jun 20, 2012 9:23 am

I have the following code:

Spoiler

Scriptname SCoLTheLuggageInnsActivatorScript extends ObjectReferenceSCoLTheLuggageQuestScript Property QuestRef AutoQuest Property SCoLTheLuggageQuest AutoObjectReference bedObjectReference theLuggageEvent OnCellAttach()RegisterForUpdate(1)EndEventEvent OnUpdate()bed = QuestRef.SCoLBedAlias.GetReference()theLuggage = QuestRef.SCoLTheLuggageAlias.GetReference()if(bed.GetActorOwner() == Game.GetPlayer().GetActorBase())theLuggage.enable()UnregisterForUpdate()endifEndEvent

Which references the quest SCoLTheLuggageQuest, which has the following script, as well as appropriate alias'

Spoiler

Scriptname SCoLTheLuggageQuestScript extends QuestAlias Property SCoLTheLuggageAlias  AutoAlias Property SCoLBedAlias  Auto

Which gives me the following error:

Even though http://www.creationkit.com/GetReference_-_ReferenceAlias is clearly a function of a http://www.creationkit.com/ReferenceAlias_Script script.

Any idea what's up? I'm stumped.

theLuggage = QuestRef.SCoLTheLuggageAlias.GetReference()

You're calling GetReference() on ''QuestRef.SCoLTheLuggageAlias'', which is a property of type Alias. GetReference(), however, is a function of the ReferenceAlias script which extends Alias.

So instead you should try this:

theLuggage = (QuestRef.SCoLTheLuggageAlias As ReferenceAlias).GetReference()

Wonderful, that compiled, now to see if it works in game

You're coding The Luggage? Any chance of an Orangutan Librarian?

An Orangutan Librarian??

As for the script, it simply doesn't enable The Luggage, and it also doesn't disable it if set it to initially enabled and add the line "theLuggage.disable()".

I've checked the cell is being attached, and I've checked to make sure the OnUpdate block is being run with debug.notification messages, but nothing gets enabled or disabled. I'll double check my alias'.

Turns out I'm a numpty.

The script now looks like this:

Spoiler

Scriptname SCoLTheLuggageInnsActivatorScript extends ObjectReferenceSCoLTheLuggageQuestScript Property QuestRef AutoQuest Property SCoLTheLuggageQuest AutoObjectReference bedEvent OnCellAttach()Debug.Notification("Cell has attached")RegisterForUpdate(5)EndEventEvent OnUpdate()Debug.Notification("Updated")bed = QuestRef.SCoLBedAlias.GetReference()if(bed.GetActorOwner() == Game.GetPlayer().GetActorBase())  self.enable()else  self.disable()endifEndEvent

And I've changed the Alias in to a ReferenceAlias, to avoid the need for casting. But it doesn't ever seem to find a bed owned by the player.

So I've decided to forgo the quest and the alias', but now my OnUpdate block doesn't run more than once.

EDIT: To clarify, the OnUpdate runs once, every time to OnCellAttach block runs, but after that it doesn't run.

Current code:

Scriptname SCoLTheLuggageInnsActivatorScript extends ObjectReferenceObjectReference Property bed AutoEvent OnCellAttach()Debug.Notification("Cell has attached")RegisterForUpdate(1)EndEventEvent OnCellDettach()Debug.Notification("Cell has dettached")UnregisterForUpdate()EndEventEvent OnUpdate()Debug.Notification("Updated")if(bed.GetActorOwner() == Game.GetPlayer().GetActorBase())  ;if(self.isDisabled() == 1)   self.enable()  ;endifelseif(bed.GetActorOwner() != Game.GetPlayer().GetActorBase())  ;if(self.isDisabled() == 0)   self.disable()  ;endifendifEndEvent

Ok, well i figured out the problem. I had two scripts attached to the object, which both had OnUpdate blocks in, screwing eveything up. All is well.
