SetEssential
Revision as of 21:23, 15 August 2006 by imported>DragoonWraith (Removed See Also section since there was no "also" to see.)
Syntax:
SetEssential ActorBase bool
Example:
SetEssential MyFavoriteNPC 1 SetEssential MyLeastFavoriteNPC 0
Sets the "essential" flag on an actor (1 or 0). When this flag is set to 1, the NPC/creature will not be killable -- when his health drops to 0 or below, an essential actor will be made temporary "unconscious". This is normally used to prevent the player from accidentally killing an NPC who is required to complete a quest.
Note that it will act as a return statement if ActorBase is a reference variable.
