gooboo Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 I'm playing a campaign with Bettler Settlers and its related mods, and turning some of the settlers into companions via the console command when I feel like it. There's one settler I recruited early on in the game, she ended up living and fighting alongside my character a long time, and I started to craft a story around her and my own character. Unfortunately, she died in a battle and I accidentally saved over my previous saves, so I can't reload and get her back (I'm playing on survival mode). When I tried resurrecting her with the console command it resulted in weirdness, where she doesn't follow me anywhere or really fight and do anything, even when I use the same console commands to make her a follower as before. I then decided things would be a lot simpler if I just made a simple npc with her appearance in the construction kit, rather than relying on the random settlers, and use the console commands to make her my follower as before. Unfortunately this didn't turn out to be very simple either, since for whatever reason she's invincible and won't die. She just goes down in combat for a few seconds and gets back up, even though every other settler in the game works just fine. I know that this npc originally dying is what started this whole mess, but I like my companions to be mortal since it adds more suspense and tension to combat. For whatever reason though something is keeping her from being mortal, and I have no idea what it is. Here is a screenshot of the settings in the ck- the essential/protected options aren't selected, so I don't know what's going on. Is one of the factions she's in keeping her alive? Like anyone in a certain faction is invincible? Here is a screenshot of my load list. I'm not sure what mod could be keeping her alive. The name of the companion mod is Paisley. I have other mods installed that make settlers mortal, namely Don't Call Me Settler (SettlersRename.esp) and the mortal soldiers option from Better Settlers, but for some reason she still can't die. Every other settler in the game can, but not her. Hopefully someone can illuminate what's going on here.
gooboo Posted July 31, 2016 Author Posted July 31, 2016 Okay, I did a little more testing today and I think I might be closer to figuring out how to fix this, or at least what the problem is. I started a completely new mod, not based on or using any other plugins, and made a new blank npc. I used the console command to kill the character, and she died just fine, but then when I used the console command to add her to my team and then killed her, she just went down to the ground and got back up. So what I guess I'm trying to figure out now is why the settlers I add to my team using the console command still die normally, but not these new npcs I create, and what I need to do to make my custom mortal. For reference, this is what I'm using to add npcs as companions. I'm using this plugin here to recruit multiple settler npcs as followers. With the exception of my npc who died, it works just fine so far- http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/3881/? This is what I'm typing into the console- setconsolescopequest followers1 forcerefintoalias recruit01 setplayerteammate 01 I've changed the numbers on the end depending on how many followers I have at the moment, but it's worked perfectly so far.
