Maeglin's Miscellaneous Questions

[Maeglin Dubh]

Sounds like an interesting list.

Does anyone know what type of armor Bound armor counts as?

[Maeglin Dubh]

Answering my own question, light armor.

Just wanted to share that I'm working on the main quest, and I went raiding Red Mountain for a diversion. I found the site of Dagoth Ur's lair, and I just want to say, the lava pit is probably the most awe-inspiring thing I've ever seen in vanilla Morrowind to date. (Solstheim Castle and Pearl Palace surpass it, Pearl Palace especially [the most beautiful piece of Morrowind architecture and decoration I've ever had the joy to explore.])

I want to keep improving my modding, so I'm building myself a house on a remote island, along with a lighthouse and a boat, to practice. I have a few questions.

1. How do I code an item to transport me directly to the house?

2. When you 'clutter' a house, are there any sort of guidelines you follow?

3. How can I set up a boat to activate to bring up transport options? Or is it easier and more preferable to have a transport NPC?

EDIT:

4. If I wanted to add a custom companion, could I use one of the existing ones as a mainframe and alter their dialogue options without breaking anything?

Depends on the item, if its inventory or not
Script works best
2. When you 'clutter' a house, are there any sort of guidelines you follow?

Give it a lived-in feel, make it for the npc and or business type,
don't add to many valuable items, if your going to include many
valuable items rename them and add a "nopickup" script
100-150 objects depending on the size of the home
you'll find some excellent examples here:

Easier with the NPC
