Also - how did you manage to insert small pics into your post?  I don't like that I post large images but I don't know how to make them small(er)

Double-click the picture while you are posting or editing the post, and you can set the size.  I usually use 300 pixels horizontal

Firing a function ongameload() skyrim

 

1. have a quest with the player in a referencealias

 

2. add the desired function to the quest

 

 

 

3. have the player alias fire the function
