Default What\'s wrong with this script?

I'm using one of the new script command #secondshape and #firstshape. But apparently when the dryad gets low on on hit points it doesn't shapechange.

In place of hair, a cascade of green or autumn-coloured leafy foliage flows from their head, and their complexion is green, brown or even silvery-white."

In place of hair, a cascade of green or autumn-coloured leafy foliage flows from their head, and their complexion is green, brown or even silvery-white. Dryads speak with strange, eerie sonorous voices able to charm or scare the unwary. Their long fingers are usually also dangerous weapons sprouting thorns or whip-like twigs. They are extremely spiteful and vengeful if offended or if the trees they inhabit are threatened or harmed.

Wood Elves are careful to placate these spirits and often ask them for help. Dryads trust and favour Wood Elves and will help them in many ways, even by assuming awesome and savage aspects to fight alongside the Elves in battle."

Default Re: What\'s wrong with this script?

Without analyzing that too much, do you mean that they don't transform at all, or that they don't transform until they die?

If it is the latter, then description of that command (#secondshape?) might is just confusing.

It doesn't transform at all.

The first- and secondshape command should make the unit to transform when the unit gets low on hitpoints.

Are you sure the functionality is "gets low on hitpoints"? The only shapechange functions I've seen are manual (like Dragon pretenders), whenever the unit takes a non-mortal hit, and when a unit is killed.

Yep, the werewolves have this ability and the command plus description is in the mod manual.

Perhaps the #shapechange command also required to enable the ability.
