Follower script doesn't work

[Anbeegod]

I've copied the content of a follower script (except the first strata) and used it to create a new script.

I've filled the property myself (DialogueFollower). This script was supposed to make an NPC follow the player following a certain dialogue.

However, when I tested the dialogue in the game, the follower options (wait, trade) indeed appeared, but the NPC didn't actually follow me, and wouldn't so even if I fast travel.

ReferenceAlias Property Follower Auto <--- Set this with the "Follower" Alias inside the DialogueFollower Quest

 

and add to your line inside the fragment:

 

Follower.forceRefTo(akSpeaker)

Didn't work

In case you don't know, this dialogue is in another quest. Don't know if it has any effect.

[Guest]

If the dialogue is in another quest, then probably the two setting you do are not triggering the lines you want.

 

Open the quest that is providing the lines, and check how the dialogue line is filtered.

And be sure to set all you need for your akSpeaker to respect the conditions.

 

For example CurrentFollowerFaction and PotentialFollowerFaction should be associated with the actor.

The condition is none more than the NPC check.

[Guest]

Sorry, not this one.

The dialogue line that should be available for the follower but is not happening. (Should be a vanilla one.)

[Anbeegod]

Do you mean I should add the line in the Follow me branch of the DialogueFollower quest?

[Guest]

No. Give me one moment to open the CK.

 

I will check what is missing for the NPC to actually follow the player.

[Guest]

OK, the "Following Package" is called "PlayerFollowerPackage".

And this package is associated with the alias "Follower" inside the quest DialogueFollower.

 

The package has 2 procedures:

1) Follow

2) Wait and travel

 

The procedure that is executed depends on the value associated to the actor "WaitingForPlayer"

 

 

At this point replace the lines of code you did with something like:

 

...

DialogueFollower.SetFollower(akSpeaker)

akSpeaker.SetAV("WaitingForplayer", 0)

...

Doesn't work. I guess I should use the old way. Still, thank you for your help.

Last point (sorry but it is like "Did you attached the plug?"):

 

Are the properties in your script correctly filled with the values?

[Anbeegod]

lol

 

Yup.
