               I know its cheating but I'm playing a single player mod as a wizard and the frequent need to rest is slowing me down as I must travel across 10 transitions (one to town, one into the bath house, one into the bath - and then back to town again for 2 more, then into an inn and then to a room for 2 more, then back to inn, then to town, then to sewers - for 10) to do so and get back to action.
If I could just use a consiole command I could save a   ton of time and maybe enjoy an otherwise good mod. if not, is there another way to rest easy?

Thanks

               It would depend on the mod and the scripts used. If an area is marked as no rest, not sure there'd be away around that with console commands. If it's by scripts, it would depend on the variables. You might be able to set or unset some of those with console commands, you might not.

That's one of the major problems in modules. Most of the time, I don't like, sorry, hate, rest restrictions... if it's not perfectly handled by some author who knows his NWN also as a player.
Some modules could be amazing, but end up being just painful because of that, and make them simply unfunny to play as a full or half spellcaster... which speaks of every class... but the fighter and the rogue.
You should be allowed to rest right in the middle of 1000s of enemies. That's wouldn't be too smart maybe, but your only choice. Just as in RL: your only choice.

I don't know any cheat solving that most painful NWN situation.
Probably the best way to destroy 2 years of work on what could have been otherwise a great module.

I'm no scripter in NWN, but I know for certain there is a way to sort of resplenish mana like in Diablo, and having your PC magically rested and fully "respelled", which is the real matter here, just by drinking some elixir or taking the right bath in the right fountain. In game.
I'm afraid today, one will have to go through the editor to have his PC benefit of such a gift.
But, again, I don't know of any in game workaround against such a pain... unless exporting your PC every single time to rest else where. What a bore...

I think I know of the module you're talking about, it's a great one, but, for instance, that very specific problem stopped me to play it any further.

That would be wonderful if some script wizard could come up with an easy "forced unlimited rest bottle or system" as an override mod, one to be used in any module.

Unfortunatelly, I'm afraid no one is talented enough around here to build such an impossible wonder, right...? ':devil:'

And I'm afraid, today, "impossible" finally became human.
We failed... Shame on us! ':sick:'

               When making a mod I make a forecerest mana potion to handle resting, the idea was to forbid resting everywhere so the potions would be the only way to rest, then I could control how many the player could have. I wonder if I could put something like that in the override folder and then spawn in the item with a console command?

               OK, problem solved. First I made a wand witha tag of "mana" and a resref of "manawand", then I made a script called "mana" which called forcerest(). Then, with tthe toolset stillopen, I copied the mana.ncs and manawand.UTI files into my override folder. Closed the toolset. Opened my saved game and issued the "dm_spawnitem manawand" console command and presto - I have a Wand of Mana with unlimited uses. Can I post the files somewhere up here so others can DL them? or on the vault maybe.

Learned how to do this from: http://social.biowar...387541#4393318

               What Module are you running?

It sounds to me that it would be simpler to just override the OnPlayer rest Script in the override.

That would work unless they have placed there rest script in a Hak.

               would that work if the areas are all marked no rest in the toolset?

I'm so proud being part of the same people you guys are... Right on the Vault, Calgacus. Where you belong and deserve to be. Override would make your mana potion universal, usable for every one, in any circunstances. There is a great mod, the Alignment Manager, by Gangster No.1, one I have been able to use in whatever module I was playing, since you just have to debug/spawn a specific item into your inventory. In game. When you need it. Just like yours.
Impossible isn't NWN, neither human.
I'll surely use that Wand of Mana in your honor as soon as you want me to test it.

               OK, its on the vault, search for Wand of Mana once it gets approved. But isn't there a way to put a file up here on the bioware boards?

               You have to create a project, then upload your files under the project.

FP!

               OK, try to dl it from social.bioware.com/project/4139/#files let me know if that link works for you.

Legacy_jmlzemaggo · « **Reply #11 on:** February 05, 2011, 10:39:06 pm »

               no file in it yet...

Legacy_Calgacus · « **Reply #12 on:** February 05, 2011, 10:40:33 pm »

               Sorry , try again, i had to mark the file as visible to everyone.

               Just updated the project with another little utility, a Wand of Gather which teleports your non-PC party members to your spot. Useful for gathering stragglers caught up in narrow passages. social.bioware.com/project/4139/#files
