[Research Request] God mode

Post by Zini »

Need information on what exactly god mode (tgm) affects. Only health? Or all dynamic stats (health, magicka, fatigue)? Or even more?
Also, does god mode also affect changes made by script instructions.

Yes, all.
Or even more?
Allows to cast spells without the mana cost with 100% chance to success. Allows to use enchantments without the cost. Nothing is able to hit the player.

hmmmm... No idea. Gonna check tomorrow. Edit: But I know that player with god mode can be killed with script.

It should stop all spell effects that are not created by the player as well.

Note that this allows you to kill yourself by having your spells reflected back on you.

Not true.
You can be hit by enemy weapons, but just are not affected by effects.
It means that you will gain the experience.
It also means that when you block the hit, you'll gain experience.
But I do not know if it means that your stuff is damaged...

My 2 cents.

How Do I add active effect on a player? "Cast" is the only way?

PS
Cast command can't effect player, but I don't know if fire from constant effect power can damage health of player.

CE fire damage when in God Mode doesn't affect the player's health.

That said, before applying God Mode, CE fire damage does appear to reduce the player's maximum health permanently when applied as an ability (which is how I was testing these things.)

Also, looking at vampirism, the game seems to either detect the Sun Damage effect or the specific "vampire sun damage" spell to figure if the player -has- vampirism - I had that on for another test and got attacked by a guard.

Edit: Twiddled my statement for clarity.

A lesser known fact is that reflect DOES deal damage while in god mode, and CAN kill you.

If I recall sun damage can also kill the player regardless of god mode. Another thing of note is the keening and sunder. I don't recall what exactly how their scripts worked but they might bypass godmode. Something worth checking into.

Also, I believe any sort of script effect that sets the player's HP to 0 kills the player regardless of god mode.

Can we have all that stuff wikified, please? And verified, too?
