"Unexpected behavior" workaround

I'm having no luck with activators. "Unexpected behavior" certainly sums it up. Activators don't seem to respond to moveTo in the console, regardless of persistence. In a script, they seem to respond once, with subsequent calls having no effect. Strangely, calling activator.moveTo from a different cell correctly moves it the first time, but after leaving and immediately re-entering the cell, the activator has vanished, and attempts to reference it via the console to check getDistance report an invalid reference!

:Yes, the behavior of this function on non-actors is a little weird. The best method seems to be a combination of MoveTo and SetPos. MoveTo ONLY works when the object moves into another cell and SetPos does NOT work if the object moves into another cell. Just call both functions and it should work. But you should call MoveTo last, since it might abort the script (like a "return"). | |||
:But there is a downside: The object loses its special behavior when moved by a setpos function. You can't activate it anymore and collusion doesn't work anymore. | |||
