Create an object in the specified location. Will attempt to use a corresponding pool if one exists.
object CreateObject(
int nObjectType,
resource rTemplate,
location lLoc,
string sOverrideScript = "",
int bSpawnActive = TRUE,
int bNoPermDeath = FALSE
);
int nObjectType,
resource rTemplate,
location lLoc,
string sOverrideScript = "",
int bSpawnActive = TRUE,
int bNoPermDeath = FALSE
);
- Parameters:
- nObjectType
- The object type (placeable, creature, etc)
- rTemplate
- The template to use
- lLoc
- Location of the object
- sOverrideScript
- Script assigned to the object. If empty, the engine will use the template script
- bSpawnActive
- Whether or not this object is enabled at spawn time
- bNoPermDeath
- Set to TRUE to avoid destroying the object permanently (only valid for pool creatures)
- Returns:
- The new object, OBJECT_INVALID on failure
- Source:
- script.ldf
Remarks
Note that dynamic creation of objects in the engine is subject to a host of limitations, reason being attempts to cut down 'unaccounted' memory usage.
Try avoiding CreateObject whenever possible.
