I was looking at creating some different traits. I want to have a trait that adjusts a game setting, specifically fAVDCarryWeightMult. In the trait/perk edit sections I don't see a way to do this directly. However, I see where you can set a quest to a particular stage.

So this is what I was thinking, have a quest that at a certain stage runs a script and that script would then set the game setting. Does that sound feasible? Any suggestions on a better method? What would the script look like.

From what I understand of the engine and mods, quests that run scripts are pretty much the meat and bone of virtually everything, so I say go for it.

That's exactly what all the perks like Animal Friend etc. that set a quest to a stage do. For an example, look at one of them.

Maybe I've been missing something obvious for the last however many years, but I don't know of a way for a script to affect a game setting with standard functions.

It might be a NVSE thing.

It was in FOSE. I was just thinking he's not going to be able to do it now anyway, unless I really was missing something extremely useful. Quest stages are indeed the way to go though.

I'll keep an eye out for NVSE then. It's not a definite need as of this moment, but something I'll need to do in the future. Thanks for the feedback!
