Server Types

I noticed that there are 10 server types, but I can't find them anywhere. How can we create custom server types? Kyd462 05:35, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi Kyd462, welcome to the wiki. As far as I know, it's impossible to create brand new server types, but you can manipulate the display by changing various game settings via script. See this page for an example - Useful_Scripts

Thank you, Cipscis. Sorry about not signing the previous post. The script in that link doesn't seem to work as is. I found a work-around though... I attached a slightly modified script to an activator instead, then linked it to the real terminal (which I buried under the terrain). I had it change the settings *then* activate the real terminal. It works great! Tested it thoroughly. Mind if I update that entry with this solution? (only if it can be verified that the previous method does not work)

Unlock a Door via a Terminal

Hello Im Here to ask, how do you make it unlock a door via computer
-- the revanchist 22:09, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

You'll want to set the door as the Linked Ref of the terminal, then use GetLinkedRef to get its refID and call Unlock on it. I suggest you have a look for an example of this in Fallout3.esm.
P.S. You're likely to get a much faster answer if you ask questions like this on the Forums.
