Good thinking Alustriel! I used slip scripts in Birthright of the North, and ended up using sleep (knockdown is really buggy) which was no good for elves - might change it based on your suggestion.

cool guys, great additions to it and hey thanks for the mod
Jassper.

And yes this doesnt have to be just on ice can be on slippery floors etc.Hey it is just a game! Or is it?

Thanks,

Modified it with Jasspers suggestion - replaced the knockdown effect with the animation - and it now looks like this:

void main()
{
object oPC = GetEnteringObject();
if (!GetIsPC(oPC)) return;

if (ReflexSave(oPC, 15)) {
FloatingTextStringOnCreature("Whoa! - Slow down there, almost fell!", oPC);
}
else {
FloatingTextStringOnCreature("You slipped on the ice!", oPC);
effect eEffect = EffectDamage(d4(1), DAMAGE_TYPE_BLUDGEONING, DAMAGE_POWER_NORMAL);
ApplyEffectToObject(DURATION_TYPE_INSTANT, eEffect, oPC);
AssignCommand(oPC, ActionPlayAnimation(ANIMATION_LOOPING_DEAD_BACK, 1.0, 4.0));
}
}

Cool Idea, but one thing. You should check to see if the PC is Immune to knockdown effects. Otherwise they will take dam and not fall down.

If you want them to fall regardless, then make them do the Animation ANIMATION_LOOPING_DEAD_BACK. Otherwise, if they are immune to knockdown, the damage shouldn't apply.

When you speak, you state what you already know. When you listen, you learn.

This is a brilliant idea. Love it. Makes sense.

Good thinking. Small things make a module great. I'm sure this will get a laugh more than once.

I will certainly use it and perhaps adapt it to damage only being done if you were running when you slipped.
