modding query

Hi all,

 

I couldn't work out a way to trigger an actual shout via script so I made a spell which is triggered using the myspell.cast(myplayerreference) method. Is there a way to trick the game into thinking an actual player shout has been performed? Or even better, a way to auto cast a custom shout? This is primarily to make surrounding npcs react accordingly.

 

Any help much appreciated!

Interesting method forcing the player to use the shout by overriding the shout key input.

ShoutKey=Input.GetMappedKey("Shout",0x00)
[...]
	Input.HoldKey(ShoutKey)
	Utility.wait(0.06)
[...]
	Input.ReleaseKey(ShoutKey)
[...]

Not tried it myself.
