==A note about events== | |||
Events are not like the old block types. When you make an event in your script that extends ObjectReference or ReferenceAlias you are essentially creating a new version of that event, and you need to declare it with the same number of parameters. Those parameters are then used inside the script. | |||
You should pretty much just copy and paste the events straight from the wiki, unless you desire to change the name of the parameters for some reason (but I can't think of a reason). | |||
For example: | |||
<source lang="papyrus"> | |||
Event OnHit(ObjectReference akAggressor, Form akWeapon, Projectile akProjectile) | |||
EndEvent | |||
</source> | |||
You might be tempted to try something like this: | |||
<source lang="papyrus"> | |||
Event OnHit(Game.GetPlayer()) | |||
EndEvent | |||
</source> | |||
'''But that DOES NOT work.''' | |||
Instead what you need to do is something like this: | |||
<source lang="papyrus"> | |||
Event OnHit(ObjectReference akAggressor, Form akWeapon, Projectile akProjectile) | |||
if akAggressor == game.getPlayer() | |||
;do something | |||
endif | |||
EndEvent | |||
</source> | |||
