I am making a quest where an objective is to DEFEAT an NPC, not to kill them. Upon defeating the NPC, the quest would update and you go do whatever.


Question: What's the script line used when an actor "goes down"?


I know the other script lines needed to update the quest itself.

Thanks.

When an http://www.creationkit.com/Actor enters "bleedout mode", the game calls the native event http://www.creationkit.com/OnEnterBleedout_-_Actor on that actor.

[censored], forgot it was called "bleedout".

Thanks Cipscis

You might want to set that actor to be 'Protected' during that Quest. Or else, the player can still kill him

Actually I think you mean essential. I'm pretty sure 'protected' just makes it so only the player can kill that actor.

Oh yeah, essential My bad.
You are right, protected actors can only be killed by player
