........ Since we can always use [[MoveTo]] functions for a summon spell (anything else potentially representing some "bloat factor", like the [[PlaceAtMe]] command), I was wondering about the use of such an NPC parameter. NOTE: for my mod currently under construction, I've included a magic apparatus that casts an Area spell, teleporting any creature/NPC within that area to some other place, and it works flawlessly without NPCs having this parameter set. Same thing for another spell I've created to summon myself from another persistent activator placed anywhere in the World. There's also a mod adding a teleport companion spell, and you can set ANY NPC to be "summonable" that way, without ever using that "summonable" parameter (Cast a spell to associate a "slot" to an NPC, and then after cast another spell to summon that "registered" NPC). | ........

'''Thus my questions:''' Is this related to the possibility of creating multiple references/instances of the same base NPC object within the game (actually acting like a [[PlaceAtMe]] command, so even if this was true I would still ask this question: why and when would we use this flag)?--[[User:HawkFest|HawkFest]] 18:56, 17 October 2007 (EDT) | |||
