[ModDev] Random World Encounters

[Cocein]

I've been looking around for a couple days now for any resources I can find on adding random encounters to the world. By world encounters I mean things like thieves, assassins, random fire atronachs, the group of bandits dressed as soldiers next to dead bodies. That sort of thing. Unfortunately I haven't found anything yet.

 

Presumably I need to modify some leveled lists somewhere, but I don't know which ones. Does anyone know how to do this, or have a link to some resources for doing it?

Well, one way I've tried handling this as a test was to add a trigger in an area, where you first ask a script to choose a random number, then depending on that number spawn a certain NPC. I didn'T goo as far as adding AI and everything, but I think this could work for what you intend to do.

I think that would work, but it seems contrary to how skyrim is built to handle these things. You'd have to add triggers all over skyrim, which is conflict city. I think I need to modify the base for existing spawn points. Which I assume is some kind of leveled list.
