Help! Declaring References : V

» Mon Jun 18, 2012 11:42 am

Is it possible to declare a reference like in OB and FO? Also, it the "set" function still in too? Or is there something similar?

I'm not sure, but perhaps this should be in the creation kit sub-forum?

Maybe I could be clearer. In Oblivion, you can do this:

Scriptname Blah Blah;Ref Awesome;Set Awesome to Player.GetCombatTarget.........

Is there something similar in Papyrus?

In Papyrus, that would look like this:

ScriptName BlahBlah ; extends something, most likelyObjectReference Awesome; In some event or other function...Awesome = Game.GetPlayer().GetCombatTarget

I'm not sure how well that function works with the player in Skyrim, though.

It sounds like you'll want to read up a bit more on http://www.creationkit.com/Category:Papyrus a bit before you try writing anything.

Thank you so much. Yeah I know, I was excellent at Oblivion and Fallout scripting, but I can't find my ground in Papyrus.
