OnSpellCast - ObjectReference

Member of: ObjectReference Script

Event called when a spell is cast by this object reference.

Syntax

Event OnSpellCast(Form akSpell)

Parameters

• akSpell: Spell that was cast. Can be Spell, Enchantment, Potion, or Ingredient.

Examples

Event OnSpellCast(Form akSpell)
  Spell spellCast = akSpell as Spell
  if spellCast && spellCast == FireballSpell
    Debug.Trace("We just cast a fireball!")
  else
    Debug.Trace("We cast something, but we don't know what it is")
  endIf
endEvent

Notes

• For concentration spells, this event only fires once, at the moment the reference begins casting.
• This function does not appear to detect spells cast via Papyrus (e.g. TempleBlessingScript casts its spell on the player from the player, but the event is not caught).
• This event can also be used to detect shouts cast by the player, however, for shouts that contains three associated spells it will only catch the last spell consistently.
