The mod idea is to shrink and weaken the Skeevers and whenever a Skeever spawns: a script generates a random number out of 10, if the generated number is 7 or less then it spawns another Skeever near the original one, the new Skeever also runs the same script and it continues until the random number generated is 8, 9, or 10, thus creating a random horde of Skeevers.

Basically so far I've created a quest that auto starts with the attached script:

Scriptname aaSkeeverSwarm  extends QuestActorBase Property EncSkeever  AutoObjectReference selfRefint randomEvent OnLoad()random = Utility.RandomInt(10)if(random <= 7)  selfRef.PlaceAtMe(EncSkeever)endifendEvent

The script itself says it has no errors, but it just doesn't work... I'm probably doing something very wrong xD

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or if this mod is even possible?

Does it spawn just one skeever or none? If it spawns one try put the if statement in a loop.
(I havent scripted anything myself yet just a thought)

It doesn't spawn any, to test the mod I open the console and type "player.placeatme 23ab7" which is the command to load a skeever at your feet, but only one ever spawns, as if the script does absolutely nothing.

Using PlaceAtMe will cause some serious save game bloat. As for your script, selfRef needs to be a property. Also are you sure this needs to be a quest script?

Don't think OnLoad is available to quests- if you check the definition, it refers to when an item's art is loaded. OnInit is probably what you want.

How else would I do it? I can't attach a script directly to the skeever for some reason, so I'm not sure how it would work without a quest script
