Hiya.

I've got a little script(think Cannibal) in my mod. It's basic, it works, it does what it should.
But I would like a little extra; hence, is it possible to make the script dismember the target as well?

That's all I wanted to know, really. I have tried looking through the scripts already in game, but I haven't found anything that could help.

Thanks in advance.

Well, assuming you're not eating alive targets, you may be able to use http://geck.gamesas.com/index.php/KillActor, as it's dead already you can just use the Dismember limb integer. Not sure if this will work on already dead targets though.

Thanks, I'll try it out.

Edit:
Didn't seem to work, atleast, I couldn't seem to make it work.

This is how the script looks so far, it's activated through an "Activate - Add Activate Choice - Button" entry from a perk:
StartCannibal Player
Player.AddItem NVCannibalFood2 1

Not sure what you mean. I assume you're activating a dead human/creature in sneak mode, then give the option to eat a body part?

Yes, exactly.

I tried to follow the instructions from the page you linked me to, but it wouldn't allow me to close the script pop-up box after adding that line, so I assume that means it wasn't accepted/working.

That would work for Actors irrespective of their GetDead state, yeah.

That is, KillActor, when paired with the appropriate parameter, will dismember limbs. Remember to check Body Part Data numbers to know which limb you want to dismember. Since it sounds like you just want it to work on humanoids then this part will be easy - otherwise, you'd have to run checks for any possible actor-type whose Body Part Data differs from the standard before specifying the limb to dismember.

The function call would look like this:

DudeToBeEatenREF.KillActor DudeThatEatsREF 1;

In humanoids, the above call would dismember the head.

O.

Excellent, I'll try it out again, thanks.
