Is there a maximum number of Script Properties? {script help)

January 9, 2017

I have about 100 script properties and 1500 lines of code, on a clean new vanilla game, everything works wonderfully,

add in my 200 mods, its creating massive stack overload ( my papy log was 25mb :facepalm: ), and all of it has to do with script properties have a null value (none).

what's worse, is that it appears to be bypassing Event overrides, this being a child script with both parent and child having states. Nevertheless, it should still be filling properties, i've triple checked my plugin, everything is connected, but i was using dummy scripts (with just the properties) as the initial compile in the Creationkit because the CK's papy editor has a 757 line limit. then just manually placing in my compiled pex file into the /Scripts/ folder.

I'm just not really sure how to begin to test for this.

It's a wise move to use smaller scripts for debugging purposes. This guide is a good precis on types of papyrus errors.

Is there anything of note in the papyrus logs with just the 200 mods (no script)?

thank you for the reply,

there are only the standard initializations from mods like campfire, nothing unexpected after gameload, i tested with my level 53 char that has all kinds of perks and stuff going on, i am extremely diligent about keeping my mods working together, i have not even had a random crash one time in SSE.

the thing is even though i have such a massive script, its actually pretty simple and evaluates very quickly. I've optimized it with as little latent calls as possible, followed every procedure I know how. doesn't mean i haven't broken something,

but i wonder if i should be breaking up some of my functions into a script that i import. I assumed that would create even more overhead, but as of right now I do not know how to fill properties on imported scripts, even if that's the problem. I'll check out your links, thanks again.

as to the papyrus errors, i have an OnActivate event, which contains a menu that i operate through functions, it is evaluating the script line for line, each variable is returning none and it often repeats the call to the stack, once (i guess) a certain call limit is reached it moves to the next variable, i mean they are all practically identical errors, which is why i *assumed* that the properties were not properly filling, this OnActivate is outside of any States, and since it is THIS script attached to the object, therefore it should override those in the parent script and in the internal States. However, it is almost like its evaluating these simutaneously, like one thread is running my OnActivate block, while another is skipping to a State because my blockActivation is not working on the heavily modded version for reasons im unsure about. edit: that's confusing, i mean its like its evaluating the parent OnActivate block which then calls .activate on self, i.e activate(self As ObjectReference). otherwise i find it impossible to explain me getting into my OnActivate block

error: None is not a valid inventory item

error: Cannot call Show() on a None object, aborting function call

etc

Just to make sure... Have you filled the properties with the correct data either directly in the CK via the properties window or by assigning data to it in a previous function/event?

yes, I created a dummy script with just the Scriptname header line and the Properties, compiled it in the CK, and then filled all the properties, saved, closed CK, checked in xEdit, then copied the compiled pex to the /Scripts/ folder,

I used the exact names of every base object so I can Auto-Fill the properties.

upon removing all mods from my modlist, and coc'ing to my test area, the trap warehouse and various other places, everything works very fast with no papy log complaints and all things appearing as they should

edit: i should add that im compiling as much info as possible before i start getting into this hardcore tomorrow. so far its done to just adding debug notifications block by block to find out exactly how this thing is going pear shaped, breaking off my functions into another script and testing.

Without anything to look at, it's just guesswork. Does the script extend the right parent object? Also ref DayDreamers comment.

Both scripts, both are vanilla scripts:

If all the properties fill without other mods loaded, then it's likely there's something overriding TrapTriggerBASE, which can be id'd in Wry Bash or MO. Something like Follower Trap Safety or Tweak Traps? Note this issue.

Side note:

Why don't you fill the static objects in an array ?

Make another array with the corresponding meshIDs at the same position. Then find the mesh ID in that array and get the static object from the same position in the static objects array. Should make your script not only smaller but also noticeably faster (those if-elseif-elseif ... cascades take time!)

There was no other TrapTriggerBase script in my loose Script folder, is there another way to override a script?

from your original link about the papy errors:

This usually means that a property located in an ESP has not been filled in properly, leaving it empty, which in Papyrus is called "None". There are numerous things that require valid data to be processed that can throw this error, and the specific text for "None" errors will vary widely. It should be easy for a mod's author to fix, but generally requires a new game before such a fix would take effect due to the data already being baked into the save. It's also possible that the script simply isn't validating to make sure the property it's using has something in it.

a new game, or coc'ing from the Main Menu, works just fine. Idk how i would even fix this if I have to require a new game. Do you think that because other scripts have ran or are running using the same base objects, that would cause a problem for them filling? I'm wondering if it may be standard to run checks for all my properties just to make sure it shuts down if it can't fill.

that's a great idea, i'll implement it thanks. anymore suggestions are welcome.

If it works correctly in a new game or by using COC at the main menu, then it stands to reason that the objects you are testing with have already been loaded at some point and have been baked into your save file. Only workaround without falling back to a new game would be to wait till cell reset in a different cell free of such objects and far away from the cells with such objects.

:fear:

so i should have to force a reset for everyone on release? can only one property be loaded at once or is it more like because ObjectReferences that have already been baked in, applying scripts to them will cause problems? that makes alot of sense if the save is trying to replicate the state of game. i just wish there were some way to not have to reset a cell. bah gawd,any ideas?

edit: although i should mention i went to two cells on my heavy modded game that i never been to before (test areas). but i think you're probably right.

Depends on how you do your scripting.

An example:

Test two mods that affect the same thing:

Save a game right in front of an ore vein.

Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade:

This mod has options which affect mining and does so by adding properties and other changes to the ore vein script.

Load your save and the vein in front of you will not work as intended. It should still mine but none of CCOR's changes will take effect.

This does not work because when the game looks at the modified script it sees that essential elements have been altered. As a result, it reverts to the save game baked version.

Random Mining MCM:

This mod has options which affect mining and does so by storing the user selected data on the MCM script and calling it from there as needed.

Load your save and the vein will work as intended.

This works because when the game looks at the modified script it sees that no essential elements have been altered. As a result, it allows the modified version to be used instead of the baked in version.

All that said, if you create a script that has your properties and/or functions and put them on a different object that is unique to your mod (perhaps a start game enabled quest). You can link to that script and use its property data and/or call functions on it from any other script that you want. This would allow you to make changes to the behavior of an already loaded object at the next point in which it is activated or other event triggered. Provided of course that you add no new properties, remove no existing functions or events nor remove any properties or variables.

Feel free to take a look at Random Mining MCM to see what I am referring to.

TL;DR

See Getting Properties From Any Other Script on the CK wiki for additional information.

Just to clarify one thing: Any property you set becomes set for life. No amount of waiting in QASmoke or whatever is going to change this. They bake in from the moment the game is started.

You cannot change the value to something else. You can however add new ones and delete unused ones at any point and the only thing your log will do is complain once about removing unused ones as no longer being present.

Removing functions can also be done provided the save isn't currently using it. If it is, that copy will remain active until the next time that object is encountered. As long as it also isn't stuck in a loop.

Thanks for the info guys, i took alot of advice from here, now I just need to start testing it thoroughly, i really appreciate those links Ishara i think that's a really good alternative. and that's very similar to what i'm working with.
