Sustained abilities which affect the whole party (e.g. Flaming Weapons) normally remain active until cleared by the caster.

IIRC something in the OC clears them eventually, but I'm blessed if I can find it. Does anyone know how / where this is done?

I'm trying to close an exploit in my standalone campaign. As it stands, if a mage follower casts Flaming Weapons, the party continues to benefit even if the mage is dismissed using the party picker.

I'm aware of low-level script functions that would probably allow me to do this by BFI, but surely there's an easier way?

The only way I know of to have them shut down when not needed is to have them end when combat ends.

Ability_DeactivateModalAbility in ability_h.nss

Thanks, Craig.

Here's a working solution.

@ ladydesire: thanks for the suggestion about doing this at combat end. I prefer to do it just before party picker launch, because that allows the follower to buff when entering a dangerous level and sustain the spell indefinitely until the party reaches safety.

I am not quite sure what I am missing here, but after adding that to my NPC modcore I get:
10:07:04 - velanna_modcore.nss - velanna_modcore.nss(199): Undefined identifier (GetAbilityList)

line 199 being: nAbilityTable  = GetAbilityList(oFollower);
Any idea what I might be missing here?

And thanks

Those snippets compile OK in a vanilla module event script. Can you post the whole script?

Unless I am being completely stupid putting something in the wrong place I just tried it in the vanilla module event script and it did not work either - error at the same point:

13:37:32 - mod_event.nss - mod_event.nss(103): Undefined identifier (GetAbilityList)
Line 103: nAbilityTable  = GetAbilityList(oFollower);

Rather than posting my script (as it's obvious that it's not that causing the problem, having also tried it in vanilla, and would include a lot of additonal code), here's how I added what you specified to the vanilla module event script, in the case that I did put something in the wrong place.

Not sure if it will make any difference also, but i'm on patch 1.04 (as that's what came with the Ultimate Edition) and am using the latest version of the toolset (1.0.1008.0).

Thanks for the reply!

1.04 is the problem. Several functions (including GetAbilityList) are bugged.

You'll need to patch 1.04 as described in that thread.

Ah right, I actually commented on that thread a few days ago - but as I had not experienced any problems up to this point had not actually gotten round to doing that.

I can confirm that everything is working just fine after doing so, many thanks!
