My work

Rotation library

A library for working with rotations in Skyrim. If you need to position and rotate one object relative to another, this'd be the code to do that.

Current projects

Atronach Crossing

A home decoration mod with a dual focus on customization and usability. Currently in early development. Already features many "firsts" in Skyrim, such as bookshelves that can be moved around at run-time.

Scratchpad

• Import is unreliable, and I don't know what makes it break. It works in some cases, but in others, it completely fails to import global functions from the target file.
  • Errors will not be generated when compiling in the Creation Kit. You'll only be able to detect the problem by checking the Papyrus logs, which will contain something like
    Error: Method ImportedFunctionName not found on EntityThatHasAScriptThatImportsStuff. Aborting call and returning None
  • It's consistent: if it doesn't work for a file, then it will probably never work for that file (barring massive changes).
  • You can work around this by referencing all functions in the script to be imported as methods, e.g. ScriptToBeImported.FunctionName().

Code snippets

Quality? Functionality? Efficiency? Here, I guarantee nothing!!

Is an ObjectReference an item?

Untested.

Bool Function IsItem(ObjectReference akObject)
   Form akForm = akObject as Form
   If (akForm as Ammo) || (akForm as Armor) || (akForm as Book) || (akForm as Ingredient) || (akForm as Key) || (akForm as MiscObject) || (akForm as Potion) || (akForm as Scroll) || (akForm as SoulGem) || (akForm as Weapon)
      return true
   EndIf
   return false
EndFunction
