What if I'm at an outpost like outside sniping out enemies for awhile, with either of the 2 options will enemies spawn at or near outpost while I'm already fighting? Cause that would be cool or is it just when your out in the open walking about? Thanks I downloaded AHK but no clue what to do now with the two files and the software?
install AHO (auto hotkey) and once it is installed just double-click the files (scripts). You then play Starfield as normal and those scripts should be working in the background while you play. The toggle script does not need you to do anything. The other one requires you to press NUM+ to run. SO install it all and try and run that one to make sure it all is set up properly.
uggghhh, don't know what happened. had it going yesterday. Installed AHK and had scripts loaded as I can see in bottom right corner of screen but today nothing. Loaded up but press num pad keys but no console commands showing up when I press like it did yesterday. I didn't actually get an encounter yesterday tho, didn't wait long enough as I had to leave the house but wanna try it and leave the game on and see. But yah, nothing now. Dont think I touched anything. Edit: Nevermind. Re-started PC as was fiddling with AHK from re-install and re-loaded 2 files and tried again and commands show up when I press NUM Enter. So like 5 - 30 mins random encounter? Can I press both and what happens if I press one more then once? Also, I have that command companion mod where I had to press Shift + Q but that doesn't work anymore. Can I fix that?
Okay, I REALLY like this idea. Could you possibly help me to make sense of the timer on the toggle? I want to increase the timer range on it but don't know what I should be changing. Also, how am I easily able to end/cancel an AHS that is running without executing it?
So the timer is specified on the line: Random, interval, 60000, 1800000 ; Generate a random interval between 1 minute (60000 ms) and 30 minutes (1800000 ms) You want to change the first two numbers in order to affect the timer. The timer is set in milliseconds. If you wanted it to trigger at a random time between 1 minute - 60 minutes from the the toggle press you would change it to: Random, interval, 60000, 3600000 ; Generate a random interval between 1 minute (60000 ms) and 30 minutes (1800000 ms)
For the second question, pressing the toggle button again will stop the timer. A third button press would reset the timer. Is this what you mean?
For the toggle option, how do you toggle it a second time to turn it off? I can see it type out commands in the console and it closes the console when I turn it on, but hitting it again to turn it off does nothing. Hitting it a third or even fourth time etc. still continues to do nothing.
EDIT: Okay I think I know how it works now. I just wish there was some kind of feedback when you disable it.
I agree ngl. To be honest I've never tried to do any of this before. I just made it because some people requested it from my last mod. Once I got the idea for how to make it happen I just kind of wanted to see if it would work.
If you don't mind using triggering the spawn yourself this mod is probably a better option.
This will not work. :-( I cant use the Numpad Enter Key and the other Script... There will spawn no one- It is possible to change the key from the Enter Button to - ?
Hey, its me again, just wanted to say thanks for making this mod. It might not be at its best according to some of the comments but hey its better than nothing. Hope your day's going well. I have one question, how do you know its working? I'm trying to use it and the console isn't popping up in starfield.
EDIT: Nevermind, that's what I get for not reading the description thoroughly lol, my bad.

One beep when it's turned on and two beeps when it's turned off.

Oh it's been edited.
Thanks for doing this.
