Undefined Variables

I've been working on a mod and I can't get my script to compile.

 

 

Scriptname SF_AADBDoorexplode_01001D88 extends Scene Hidden

Actor Property Player Auto
ReferenceAlias Property Alias_BlackDoorAlias Auto

It's failing on "BlackDoorAlias.SetOpen(true)" saying BlackDoorAlias is not defined even though it's clearly defined above as a ReferenceAlias and in the quest. It's the same alias used by the rest of the Dark Brotherhood scripts so I'm not sure why it doesn't work in mine. Any help?

 

Edit: I'm using MO and I've been seeing errors about not supporting 64bit binaries. Could that be affecting the compiler? I saw a mod earlier that patched the ck binary to stop that but I didn't think I needed it since I haven't had trouble compiling other scripts.

.SetOpen() is a function defined on ObjectReferences, you are using a ReferenceAlias.

A ReferenceAlias cannot be set to a door. An ObjectReference can.

 

Probably you need to change:

ReferenceAlias Property Alias_BlackDoorAlias Auto

to:

ObjectReference Property ref_BlackDoor Auto

That did it! Strange though, the quest where I got that line from (way of the voice) has it both ways. It's a ReferenceAlias and an ObjectReference. I wonder why it needs both?

 

Anyways, thanks for the help!

If you need it as map marker to find the object, then you need it as ReferenceAlias.

But if you need to operate on it then you need it as ObjectReference.

 

Special case are Actors, because you can get directly the Actor from a ReferenceAlias, and an Actor is an ObjectReference.

Also keep in mind you can access the ObjectReference inside a ReferenceAlias by calling GetReference() on it.
