I think there should be a way to do it as an onHeartbeat script for just those specific characters. But I'm not entirely sure. I'll go ask around.

 

It would be a bit of a hack-ish workaround, but theoretically you should be able to add a check in the heartbeat script for party members that applies the Force Sight effect to Visas and Kreia if they are in the party and don't already have that effect on them.

 

The biggest problem with this is that Obsidian hasn't added the Force Sight as a detectable effect type (it returns the Invalid effect type when applied). One possible workaround for this would be to make a custom force power that permanently applies the Force Sight effect and then have the heartbeat script make the character cast this power on themselves with the Instant flag set. Then you could check if they have any effects on them from that particular force power/spell instead.

Thanks the stoffe!

 

I thought you would know ;)

Although it's a shame that Obsidian didn't just add it as a detectable effect in the first place.

 

Sounds like it would be an interesting project - maybe if it's around this weekend when I get home I'll take a look at it :)
