In Oblivion it was easy to grab variables from a quest script including actor reference like this:

set LocalActorRefVar to MyQuestScript.QuestActorRefVar

(er... I think I have the syntax right on that example, but you get the idea even if I do not.)

Can something like that be done in Skyrim?


I think this (from the Wiki in the Variables and Properties section) may be what I need but I am not exactly getting it. Will this work for an ACTOR REF?

Scriptname mySpellEffectScript extends activemagiceffectmyQuestNameScript Property myQuestRef autoEvent OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)myQuestRef.PublicInt = 20	; This will change the damage for the DamageTargBasedonPublic FunctionmyQuestRef.DamageTargBasedOnPublic(akTarget)  ; You can manipulate this damage by changing PublicDamage Prior to calling itmyQuestRef.DamageTargBasedOnPrivate(akTarget)  ; This will always do 30 damage unless the quest changes the private variableEndEvent

Never mind, I figured it out myself by trying a few random things until one worked. Thanks anyway!
