NPCs not attacking after console command
I accidentally pickpocket-ed codsworth and tried to use console commands to make him friendly but it didn't work and now all npcs wont attack even when they show up at hostile. how do i reverse this??

Go back to before you did that.

If you're in a settlement, leave it for a couple days, and they SHOULD be fine.

Also "showing up as hostile" are you perhaps still crouching/hidden?

I could kiss you. As much as I didn't want to go back to a load. I hadn't gone much further and I was just thinking the save state wouldn't fix a command issue. Thank you thank you.

Of course it does, that's why you should rely on MANUAL saves as much as possible!

Quicksaves and autosaves don't pause the game, manual saves do - so quick / autosaves run the risk of being corrupted slightly more than manual saves.

Oh dip. Now codsworth is cool with me but nothing else is still attacking. Halp. What command did I use to make every enemy literally just stand there ???

What do you mean by attacking - who is attacking?

Are you in TCL - noclip?

So I pick pocketed codsworth. And he was attacking. So I tried. Few console commands to make him stop. He still showed up as hostile but didn't attack me. I walked around and now nothing is attacking me.

Then leave the settlement for a couple days and come back later. Their behavior will change either way.

Are they doing ANYTHING? Are they walking around, can you interact with them in any way?

Enemies aren't moving. They are stagnant.

This is really good advice. I don't quick save in FO4. Or most other games. It is very rare for me to have a corrupted save. Don't remember the last one that was.

You may have to reload a save before you did the console command. That is why it is risky using it. Always save before you do.

I did and now codsworth is cool but not even a fly will touch me. They just hover and stay stagnant.

If they are not moving, type in your console,

TAI

or

TCAI

More than likely it's one of those - npc AI or combat npc AI. If they are just 'standing there' not interacting, either YOU or THEM are toggled outside of the norm.

You are my savior. I can't see very well and couldn't see that tai and tcai were off.

So it's working now? I hope?
