How to reset Reputation after a spell ends? Help, please?

[Legacy_Monsieur T]

               The script below enables a PC to turn into an animal for 10 minutes or until the polymorph is cancelled.
Thanks to Baragg, it now works nicely and makes the Hostile faction ignore the polymorphed PC.
This allows the PC to spy on bad guys while in animal form.
However I was stupid and did not realize that once the spell ends, the Hostiles STILL like the PC!!!
Does anyone know of a way that I can set the Hostile faction back to hating the PC (especially if the spell ends and reveals his true form when hostiles are close by)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

               A couple different ways to do this maybe.

One would be to add a delayed line to the bottom of this script to change the reputation back. However that would only work for a locked version of the polymorph. If the player can cancel the effect then the hostiles will still be nice until the delay changes the reputation back.

Another way might be to use the bad guys' OnPerception script. Make it so that if the object they last perceived doesn't have a certain appearance type..then set the reputation back.

All I can think of off the top of my head.

               What about firing off a pseudo-heartbeat type script that checks to see if the player is still in animal form? If they still are do nothing (except re-execute the psuedo-hb), if they are not then change reputation back to hostile.

               When they are polyed do they receive a skin for the ploy type? If so you can put a bit of code on the playerunacquire module level script to reset the settings on unacquiring those skins.

IE:
Player cancels poly or poly ends ---> Player loses poly skin ---> Module level Unacquire script resets settings

               Thank you for your help, folks.

Baragg, you are a genius! I would never have thought of your idea in a million years!

Thanks again.
