Not sure if it is even possible. I am placing a corpse behind a force field but one can still loot the corpse if angling the crosshair correctly. Don't want that. Is it possible to make the corpse unlootable, or perhaps another approach to make it so the player cannot interact with the corpse at all?

Great, that sounds like it should do what I need! Now that I have some time for modding again I will give this a whirl. Cheers!

Specifically a feral ghoul. I want to place one in the world, crouching/squatting near some human remains.

Thanks! Great resources. I will have a look. And yeah, the idea I had was initially the hardcoded script you described, but as you said it is definitely not the best route. It would be easier I think from a coding standpoint, however; the all-governing script is a little beyond what I know now. I suppose it comes down to how much time I have to invest in learning how to do it, and if it is something I actually think is worth the time.

Greetings, I am about to get back into Skyrim again and I have been playing Enderal. While playing the latter, there is something I looked for in a mod that would restrict spell tome consumption to the tome level, meaning a Level II tome cannot be consumed unless the Level I tome has been consumed first, a Level III tome needs Level II consumed first, and so on(cannot remember how Skyrim works with tomes, not be Level I, II etc but by Adept, Expert, etc I believe, but it would work along the same principle). Being from a Fallout New Vegas modding background, I realized Skyrim modding is a little different when I endeavored to creating a mod myself to achieve this end. I found several spell restriction mods on Nexus, they all seem great but none do the aforementioned thing. All I want is a mod to make the tome unreadable without the tome a level lower having been read first. Is there some obscure mod that does this? If not, would this be a terribly complicated thing to implement? Thanks for any advice or tips.

I am creating a new worldspace that shares the vanilla world map and I would like to know how to make it so that the player pointer appears at a certain place on it when looking at the map in the pipboy. I have been playing around with the x and y offsets but they don't seem to do much, unless my numbers are wrong. Is there a simple way to set the starting place for the pointer to be on the world map when first entering the worldspace? EDIT: nvm, my x and y values at first were far too small to see a difference, got it working with larger values.

The Time Bomb works differently from what I want. It uses a timer you can set in its explosion record, but what I need(I think)is a script attached to a detonator telling the game two things upon pulling its trigger: first, to spawn in the NPC ally and second, to detonate the placed mine(the power source of the ally, if you will) after 30 seconds. The ally also needs to disappear when the mine explodes. I got the ally behaving just how I want, but I don't know how to implement it via the above

I am making a mine weapon that I want to work with the detonator in this way: first, when pulling the detonator trigger, it doesn't explode, only gets ACTIVATED, then explodes after a certain amount of time(maybe 30 seconds), and second, I want a light attached to the mine to go on when activated. I have two different nifs for the mine, one with light off and one with light on. I just don't know how to implement them the way I want, nor do I know the scripting for the timing thing. Basically, what will happen is the detonator when used will place an NPC at the mine location(which I have managed to do through the explosion, probably not the best way) who will fight for you until a certain time(30 secs) elapses, at which point the mine blows up and the NPC disappears.

Yes, I first tried it with Scrap Metal and got the rotation, then in a last hope kind of mindset I decided to try it with the Conductor object and it worked!

This is more of a Nifskope question but hoping to find an answer here nonetheless. I have created a misc object from a static mesh. As expected, when I first tested it and dropped the item it would float. So I followed some tutorials and managed to get rid of the floating, but now when the item lands on the ground it slowly rotates, and doesn't stop. How can I get it to behave as other junk items, when you drop them they react to physics as normal?

But setting the light template into something darker would create undesirable effects in the other areas of the worldspace I image. In any case, I scrapped that idea and made an interior out of what I wanted to do. Would still like to know if there is an elegant workaround. I am sure I have played a game where I entered somewhere like a cave in a worldspace and noticed it getting darker, and quite smoothly. Maybe Enderal? Might be worth checking that out I suppose.

Making a new worldspace that includes a long underground tunnel accessible via a hole in the ground, no load door. When entering the tunnel, it seems the worldspace light affects the walls of the tunnel, with the wall facing where the sun would be is much brighter than anything else, despite it being completely underground. Is there a way to disable worldspace weather/lighting for a section or does a new interior need to be created?

But that's the thing, I don't think the asset count is that high, I have only created the tunnel with zero clutter, zero NPCs. I think there is something to do with XYZ because I deleted a section and it works fine. Guess I will split them into two cells.

So I did two tests. There are two cells linked to one another. For the first test, I started in cell 1 and went through the door to cell 2 to test the teleport and once in cell 2 I couldn't advance at all, just stuck right at the entrance. Noclip mode through console and I advanced but then when I turned clipping on I warped back to the position I was stuck at. Test two, I loaded an old save where I was somewhere in the middle of cell 2. I started making my way to the entrance and then when I got to a certain point, maybe 30 paces or so, I warped back to the middle area I started in. Could move though.

I just want to know what the limit is for an interior cell, dimension-wise, if any. I am working on a cell with a rather protracted cave network and upon testing I found my character makes it to a certain point and then warps back to a certain place in the maze. There are not that many objects added in, just the cave walls and such, but as I said the cave tunnel is very long.
