set givePower to 1

Hi there,

I'm currently playing the Sixth House Mod by Endrek (which is really great).
I have the German version of Morrowind, there are a lot of complications with the cells names, but I got that fixed with my own changes (i could upload it if there is any interest)
I'm really curious about the "givePower" variable:

BEWARE SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!




At the end of the Sixth House Mod, you gain access to the Heart of Lorkhan. You touch it once, and you are granted powers.
Every attribute gets raised by 10, which does not work beyond 100.
I looked up the script, since this seems not that great for touching a god's heart. There is a line "set givePower to 1", which is described as sharing the heart's power.
Well... what is the heart's power? There are no new spells in my list, my skills haven't increased and there are no new magical modifiers in my list (just the permanent equipment stuff, birthsign etc.)
Is Endrek still active? I could make a direct request to him then. Any other modders have an idea of "givePower" and it's actual effects?

"set givePower to 1" is actually a line which adds a value to a variable (most likely a global variable).
i think the purpose of this is to prevent the player touching the heart several times and get the stat boost every time he does.
so "givePower" is not a command but just a misleading var name. :wink_smile:

Too bad it seems to be true :/
