So I want to attach a script to an NPC to make him cast StromThrall at the beginning of combat. He has StormThrall on his spell list. So what I've done so far is open up his npc tab, click add script, click new script, then edit the source of that script. The actor ID is JSReddin. So far I have an uncompleted script, because I have no idea how to do it. This is what I have so far (Yes I understand I didn't finish the Cast part of it). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Any suggestions?

Instead of using a script you could try setting up a combat interrupt package and using UseMagic procedure to cast it

Big question is do you want him to go through the casting animations. If so, you need to use the ai routines and not a script, if the CK wiki is correct.

Okay I'll try that. Another question though. Is there any combat package that's already made that makes the NPC use a two handed destruction spell automatically, or a two handed conjuration spell?

Fortunately, i tackled and solved this problem a few days ago, just attach a script like this to one of your actors:

Scriptname ActorCombatScript extends Actor;This script will cast the spell 'SpellOfDoom' whenever; this actor enters combatSPELL Property SpellOfDoom  AutoEvent OnCombatStateChanged(Actor akTarget, int aeCombatState)    ;we have entered combat with actor akTarget    if (aeCombatState == 1)       ;equip the spell in your hand first, AI will equip spell in both hands if it has to       ;but otherwise a value of 0 = lefthand, 1= righthand, 2=voice (use this for powers)       EquipSpell(SpellOfDoom,0)	       ;now cast Spell of doom on enemy akTarget. Pass 'self' as the second param to this function if you       ;want to cast a spell like healing or invisibility	DoCombatSpellApply(SpellOfDoom, akTarget)    elseif (aeCombatState == 2)	Debug.Trace("We are searching for the enemy...")	;AI enters this state at the beginning of combat (before it has Line-of-Sight to enemy) also when an enemy runs away or turns a corner	;So this spot would be a good place to cast 'power up' or 'protective' spells    endIfendEvent
