So I'm trying to recreate the Blink spell from Dishonored (yes, I know there's a mod that does this already, but I want to learn how to script myself), and I keep getting an irritating error that I don't know how to solve. Basically, I'm modifying the defaultTeleport script that the Caller uses. I've trimmed off all the fat and am left with this:

scriptName BlinkSpell extends activeMagicEffect import gameimport utility activator property BlinkTargetAct autofloat property fSearchRadius = 1600.0 auto  ObjectReference teleportGoal ObjectReference playerRef  Event OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)playerRef = game.getPlayer()endEVENT  Event Teleport()teleportGoal = FindRandomReferenceOfTypeFromRef(BlinkTargetAct, PlayerRef, fSearchRadius)playerRef.MoveTo(teleportGoal)EndEvent

The first one means something with the function input 'teleportGoal' on line 16 isn't working. The second error means that it was expecting and additional ( on line 29.

You have your two ObjectReference properties declared incorrectly. Add the word property to the middle of both declarations, just like how you have it in there for your activator and float. See if that fixes all your errors.

I think having them as variables was intentional.

If you do want them as properties, do what Alex said but also add the Auto flag to the end of each (after the name of the property).

I've never thought about doing it like that. Wouldn't placing an xMarker and then moving the player towards that be easier? I've never tried it but that's where I'd begin.
