I'm still fighting with a good solution for this companion thing. There is some helpful code for having companions with horses, that follow. But it doesn't really work well. Still timing problems may occur and the NPC is standing in front of his horse, without mounting it or time displays that it has elapsed ...

Moreover I would like to give the NPC companion a possibility to call his horse. I tried to add some AI package in the GameMode script of the horse, if a certain script variable is set. But it seems, that the horse, if it is out of sight, just doesn't react or evaluate any package (which makes sense, to keep the game performance).

Hi out there, in this great Wiki!

I've learned a lot here, as this wiki provides a lot of helpful hints, but still some questions I can't solve.

I'm still fighting with a good solution for this companion thing. But I have published meantime a relativly reliable solution under NPCs Horses and you. Hope to get some testing comments on it ;)

Thanks for writing up the Debug Scripts article, it's a good initiation.

Hi Entim, suppose that you may have enriched my attempt. Thanks a lot. Sorry about the preview and all this. I use it, sincerly, but, when I read the article again, I discover errors or parts, that may be misinterpreted again. And so follows a new edit session ... sorry to be so imperfect to say everything at the first time ;) AdiBeiElderScrolls 15:32, 13 November 2006 (EST)

I'm the one that edited your original article. Thanks for taking the time to write it up. FYI: Each article has a link to "Discussion" at the top of the page for discussing the contents, layout, etc...I moved your response to my edits there -> Talk:Debug_Scripts.
