MSFD Checking and managing souls and soulgems

HasSoulgem, "CreatureID"

If ( Actor->HasSoulGem, "golden saint" )

This function checks if the player has a soul gem containing the specified soul in his inventory. A little used function that could allow some fun quests and new uses for soulgems.

Sample: This is part of the StrongSoulCheck script:

if ( Player->HasSoulGem "atronach_storm" > 1 )

Set counter to ( counter + 2 )

elseif ( Player->HasSoulGem "atronach_storm" > 0 )

Set counter to ( counter + 1 )

endif

RemoveSoulgem, "CreatureID", number_enum

Actor->RemoveSoulGem, "golden saint", 1

Removes a soulgem with the specified soul from the players inventory.

Sample: this is the complementary part from RemoveStrongSoul script to the example above:

if ( counter > 0 )

if ( Player->HasSoulGem "atronach_storm" > 0 )

Player->RemoveSoulGem "atronach_storm" 1

Set counter to ( counter - 1 )

endif

Note, the player will not be happy if they get Azura's Star taken away by this. Here's a sample solution:

short StarCount ;They could have more than one I guess.

if ( OnActivate )

if ( Player->HasSoulGem "Golden Saint" > 0 )

set StarCount to ( Player->GetItemCount "Misc_Soulgem_Azura" )

Player->RemoveSoulGem "Golden Saint" 1

if ( ( Player->GetItemCount "Misc_Soulgem_Azura" ) < StarCount )

Player->AddItem "Misc_Soulgem_Azura" 1

endif

Player->AddItem Gold_001, 10000

MessageBox "Thank You, Come Again."

else

MessageBox "You have no Golden Saint souls."

endif

AddSoulGem "creature ID", "soulgem ID"

AddSoulGem "atronach_storm", Misc_Soulgem_Grand

AddSoulGem adds a soulgem of the specified type and with the specified soul to the players inventory. You can't add more than one at a time with this (giving it a count won't cause any problems, it's just ignored).

DropSoulgem, "Creature ID"

DropSoulGem "atronach_storm"

As far as I can tell, this function is broken (crashes the game).

[no fix] OnPCSoulGemUse (is short variable)

The Object is a soulgem and it has been used in either recharging or item making

The soul gems in the game have the following ID's:

Soul Gem ID's:

Misc_SoulGem_Azura

Misc_SoulGem_Grand

Misc_SoulGem_Greater

Misc_SoulGem_Common

Misc_SoulGem_Lesser

Misc_SoulGem_Petty

This function was not used in the original game.
