Hi all

I was having a look at the skills section of the CS last night and noticed I couldn’t find any scripts that control how the skills work. I could only find the skills popup that allows you to change the rate at which you develop a skill, the text when you progress in level and so on.

I was looking for the scripts that control things, for example, how long a repair hammer lasts, or how many armour health points you can repair.

Can anyone let me know where these are hidden??

Things like that can usually be found in gameplay>settings...

For repair the fRepairXXX settings are the ones you want to change. They should be pretty self explaining, some of them are explained in the Wiki.

Cheers for this..I'd actually found these..however when clicking on the file names fRepairXXX (or any other in the list) nothing happens..I cant seem to be able to view their content..

..Should I be able to view these? Would this indicate an issue with my CS??

There is no content, there is only a numeric value in the upper right corner (or a string if it's a string setting). Example:

fRepairSkillBreakBase, fRepairSkillBreakMult and fRepairApprenticeMult control how often repair hammers break. By default they are set to 30, -0.2 and 0.5. First value is the base chance, second value is the decrease of the base chance per point of armorer skill and third value is the multiplier of the total chance if you have the apprentice armorer perk (skill value 25). So with 25 points in armorer it would be (30 + 25 * -0.2) * 0.5 = 12.5% chance that a hammer will break. Now you can adjust every value to get the result you desire. Changing the formula itself would require scripting and, in most cases, OBSE.
