Thread: kill_character?

  1. #1

    Default kill_character?

    I have seen several people talk about using "kill_character" to kill off characters.

    However, whenever I try to do it, it doesn't work. It says the command is not recognized. I know that the name of the character I am trying to kill is recognized by the game, because when I do move_character the name works.

    So what am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

    I believe the kill_character command can only be executed from a script, not via console.

    The name in EB is not as easily recognized as in vanilla, especially for 3-word-name men, for example:

    {Eptenis} Eptenis
    {Eptepus} Eptepus
    {Pvblivsbaebivs} Pvblivs Baebivs
    {Ornithopoleosphoinikikes} Ornithopoleos Phoinikikes

    Just made sure that you look the descr_names.txt and names.txt correctly for someone that you wants to kill... it can works on the console mode...

    Even with the correct name, kill_character cannot work in the console. It is a scripting only command.

    How do I script it? I have not really done any scripting before, so I don't know how to do it.

    And I am sure it is the right name, because the console recognizes the name when I do "move character".

    Put it in the generic_script.txt and activate with F1, Question button, show me how.
