Generator/Elevator

Post by Grunker »

Hi. Love your mod - review will come later, roses will be thrown at the modders. However, for now, I need your help!

I'm at the point where I need to power up the elevator. I couldn't find anything significant about the area, except the garbarge and the burning generator, and the fact that the garbage lights on fire when you throw it into the restricted area. So I did, but to no avail. What have I missed?

Have you checked your goals after tossing something into the reactor?

Yep. It's the goal followed by the line: "You will, however, need to find a way to power up the elevator first."

That's strange, throwing garbage into the generator is supposed to update your goal to "You have established a power supply for the OSC elevator, which you may now use."

Try going back down and unlocking the big green door to the elevator shaft at the other end of the basement from where you get to the generator. See if you can use the elevator then.

Yeah, tried just taking the elevator already, but it doesn't work. I just get a PM reminding me to power up the generator.

So... I'm pretty much at a loss. I'd upload my save, but the .rar'ed version of the thing is still 25mb. Dunno what to do, and as indicated in the first post, I really like this mod. Would like to finish :)

Well I'd try throwing some more trash into the generator and see if the trigger fires properly this time, but otherwise you can use the legend menu to set the flag NSC_OSCElevator_ON.

I've thrown every piece of material in that room into it ^^

Eh... Legend Menu? I don't speak code ;). In the .ini or?

press t, delete "say", type: legend.

do like Jonas said, go to edit flags and add what he said, or edit it if there's already a flag by that name.

*Edited out alternative* I trust yah Jonas :P

Can't figure this out guys. There are five flag types... I went with "bool." Then put "NSC_OSCElevator_ON" and chose "0", then clicked "True."

Elevator still won't function.

That's probably because you spelled it wrong. It's NSC_OSCElevator_ON, not NCS_OSCElevator_ON.

Oops, hehe. I just loaded my save and checked though. It's spelled right in the save...

EDIT: Tried doing it in another save, and it worked! Thanks alot Jonas.

EDIT2: Hmm, my goal didn't update, so now I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing ^^
