Fox's Dynamic Target Detection (Modder's Resource)

GitHub Repository for Target Detection

Proper Demonstration of Target Detection

Description

This is a modders resource to dynamically collect and manage nearby actor references based on modder defined conditionals. This is accomplished by a spell script storing a reference as a temporary reference in the quest script, storing that temporary reference as a numbered reference, and then clearing the temporary reference variable. Once the reference is managed, the modder can do whatever they wish to it.

The templates are taken from my own version of this where I am using it to determine valid targets for an aura effect applied by wearing 6 pieces of matching gear. The script that handles the set bonuses sets a global variable (!bDebuffConditional) that tells the TargetDetectionSpellQuestScript to start looking for targets.

This has been given the MIT License. Please refer to the license document for full information, but basically, you can use this and change it and do whatever you want with it so long as you properly credit me. You must include a link to this page or the repository in your mods readme as well as include me in your credits. You do not need to ask me for permission to use this so long as you follow those requirements. This resource is exclusively being distributed via its GitHub repository and Nexus.

You must link in your mod's credits to either the GitHub repository GitHub Repository for Target Detection or the Nexus Mod Page. Failure to do so is cringe, uncool, and plagiarism, so please don't do that.

Closing Remarks

If you require support with this, want to collaborate or to raise feedback you can find me in the Oblivion Remastered Modding Community Discord or the /r/OblivionMods Discord as Fox/TheFoxOfKvatch. You can also send me a message on Nexus, and I will eventually respond to it. I prefer to not be added in Discord until after we chat.

Please submit bug reports as needed.
