Well, the test I did to see that it works was as follows:1. At the intro fight with the three skeletons, kill them all, move away from them and save.2. New enemies have spawned on top of the corpses of the original enemies.3.
Divinity: Original Sin 2 players are killing the toughest enemies by turning them into chickens By Steven Messner 2017-09-25T21:21:22.267Z Sometimes the best offense is to run screaming through.
Let the new enemies move prior to killing them. Move away and save.4. With my code above, enemies spawned at the location that the last ones dies at (not on top of the original corpses).5. Disable the Respawn toggle. Kill the enemies, save, and then reload.
They should be gone.I suppose I still need to check if consecutive saves/reloads without killing does anything, but I expect it not to. They should be spawning a creature every time since the last generation disappears upon reload (so there is only ever 1 creature spawned per original creature).
Just got around testing your version, on save,load,save,load etc. The enemies keep respawning themselves. This is because the game doesn't recognise the%spawn anymore. You should really consider using my code for a quick fix. (I don't mind, just here to help ). What I'm thinking is this:1. In the OnInit function, add this part to the IF check-IF '&c5'IsEqual(%spawn, Me)And then in the OnDie(%spawn) function after the THENSet(%spawn, Me)I'm cutting out a lot of the code, but those are the important additions.At the beginning%spawn is initialized as Me.
When it dies,%spawn is still Me.Upon reload, it checks the IF, sees that%spawn Me, and creates a spawn. In the process, it sets%spawn to the new spawned character.If at that point the game is saved/reloaded,%spawn should still be set to the spawned character, and thus not trigger the OnInit again.When the spawn dies,%spawn is set to equal Me again, which will make a new spawn whenever OnInit is run again.Edit:I think I see now.%spawn is set to null when it reloads doesn't it? My changes above didn't work; they don't even allow a single respawn to occur.

I believe that I figured out what was going wrong with the code, and the new version passes all of the tests (consecutive reloads without killing, consecutive reloads with killing, killing after moving, killing with Respawn enabled/disabled).My belief is that upon Initialization, the living characters spawned via the SpawnCharacter command are given new GUIDs.
Because the scripts were storing the character after they were spawned, when it came to OnInit the stored character and the living character with a new GUID are no longer equal. Thus the%spawn variable storing the spawned character is unreliable, and can only really work so long as the game isn't reloaded.My solution then was to focus everything around the original character's GUID, since that will always remain constant across different save reloads. I have the script set so that the spawned characters store the original character as a variable, which they can then check upon death (and manipulate so that the parent realizes they no longer have children).Here is version 3 of the mod, which should have everything working correctly now.And the code.

Alright, I think this mod is at the point where it is feature complete.Version 4 of the mod-Features:-Enemies will respawn. where they last died (this is on by default)-Player characters receive four skills upon arriving at Cyseal Beach that toggle various functions in this mod.1. Disable Respawning Enemies - This makes it so that when enemies are killed, they no longer respawn.2. Enable Respawning Enemies - This makes it so that enemies who are killed will respawn.3.
Mass Respawn - This makes it so that all NPCs who are currently dead (and haven't respawned) will respawn, even if they were killed when Respawn was disabled.4. Reset Spawn Positions - The next time that dead enemies respawn will be at where they originally died at.Respawn means that a copy of the enemy will appear where the NPC last died. The original NPC's corpse will remain in the location that they originally died at.-Full code. Main campaign charScripts (and presumably itemScripts) can be overwritten by mods. There might be some side effects, but it can be done.2.
Story scripts and charScripts/itemScripts can work together to great effect.3. Resurrected characters don't give exp but are easier to work with, while Spawned characters give exp and are much harder to work with.
Something about living spawned characters (perhaps GUID) appears to change whenever the game is loaded (or perhaps they die) such that they are no longer equal to what they were prior to game load/death.I think I now have enough experience in charScripts/itemScripts to add a section to my tutorial thread. I wasn't able to catch spawned characters in Story scripts either, which is why I focused everything around the spawning character (original character). The spawned enemies don't trigger CharacterDied events at the very least.The reason charScripts might work over Story scripts is due to either the spawned character using a charScript themselves or because it matters more for AI in combat since it allows them to be targetted.Re: WIP Respawning Enemies06/09/14 12:12 PM 06/09/14 12:12 PMJoined: Jul 2014Posts: 95.

Yeh sadly there is no way I can think of (and I tried many ) to catch them in story scripts.
It would be great though to create and manipulate characters on the fly, like for some RTS element that I'm working on in my own mod. Will shelf that idea sadly.edit: when I create a character template and then remove the original template from the game(ie destroychar), the new character is recognised by story scripting as if it where the original one. I would love to see this project completed.
Personally, I see the current status quo of a fixed number of objects in the world as problematic for two key reasons.In gameplay terms, it means that I feel a need to kill every single monster, and gainfully utilise every single item.In feel/realism, the game becomes considerably less. Alive once you've been playing a while. Hey, tell Aureus he can have a holiday, there is not a single living corpse remaining in the Cyseal area.For the same reason, I'd love to see ores respawn, and further chances to pickpocket: but uh, for difficulty, perhaps not further copies of every painting, plate, and cup (without substantial balancing).
My, my, the Cyseal art and homewares scene is booming.Do you have plans to remove corpses at some point? I imagine the games engine could get pretty overloaded otherwise (if an area is cleared enough times).edit: I guess I should pause to note there are some nice advantages in D:OS relative to the traditional fully respawning world, it's really nice being able to set up camp wherever you like, set up your chests in places, take over abandoned buildings, and not worry about 'safe storage'. Perhaps there's a best of both worlds though?
XP FarmingXP Farming in Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition is difficult as enemies do not respawn. There is a finite amount of XP to go around. The best way to gain experience is through Quests, killing monsters (the first time) and exploring.However, there are some locations which you can use to obtain more XP at once than normal.
These are listsed below.Known XP Farming Locations:. Frederic's Cave Ghost Farming. During the quest. The main ghost in the cave keeps resurrecting additional small ghosts. As long as you don't kill the main Ghost, you can just keep farming the smaller ones to gain XP.
