 Posted: Sat Jan 15, 2005 4:04 Post subject: Local vars in character files? |
 |
|
I'm wanting to attempt creating a plugin that checks for a local variable set in game on a character. And from what I have seen local variables set in game (string, int, and float) do not appear to be saved in the character .bic file. I looked through the file using leto and the gff editor on nwvault.
Can someone confirm this or where to look in the character file for a local variable?
Thanks!

| Local variables set on the PC are NOT saved in the Bic. THey are saved in the running module. Variables set on ITEMS in the player's inventory ARE saved, but I don't believe you can actually see them anywhere. You have to drag them off the item itself.... |

SetCampaignInt() sets the variable in the Bioware database, NOT the PC .bic file
Just like SetPersistentInt() sets it in the NWNX system....... |

| What you can do is turn the creature hide into a container, and then store locals on an item in that container. That does require a 2da change, but then its persistant as long as ILR and ELC are off. |

Local variables set on a hide are persistent just as is, at least in our experience. I am not certain why you suggest turning them into containers. Any insight on that?
