AR1500 script loop

[aVENGER_(RR)]

The Spellhold outdoors area script has this block at the bottom:

 

IF
GlobalGT("AsylumPlot","GLOBAL",55)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
	Unlock("Door1501")
	OpenDoor("Door1501")
END

 

As you can see, this block will always return true after the confrontation with Irenicus which will prevent any script blocks placed below it from executing. In the unmodded game, there are no script blocks below this one so the bug is barely noticeable. However, several mods do extend the area script with their own blocks which will never trigger due to this bug. The fix is simple, we introduce a variable which ensures that the door unlocking/opening only occurs once:

 

// The Spellhold Asylum door should be unlocked and opened once
