SetPlayerProjectile

A command for Oblivion Script Extender

Syntax:

(nothing) reference.SetPlayerProjectile

Sets the player as the source of the projectile. Actors hit by the projectile will react as if the player had cast the spell or fired the arrow.

Finding the Projectile Reference

The only way to get a projectile reference is by walking through projectile references with GetFirstRef, GetNextRef and Label/GoTo. See GetFirstRef for the necessary info and a good, generalized example (note that the example walks through door references, change the 24 to 34 for projectiles).

Another example - this one will walk through each projectile until it finds an arrow shot by your companion (Reference EditorID = TriggerHappyFan) and marks the player as the shooter.

ref rProj
...
set rProj to (GetFirstRef 34 1)
Label
if rProj
    if (rProj.GetProjectileType == 0) && (rProj.GetProjectileSource == TriggerHappyFan)
        rProj.SetPlayerProjectile
    else
        set rProj to GetNextRef
        Goto
    endif
endif
