Forcing NPCs back to being friendly? (Friendly Fire)
So in my latest playthrough I .. may have accidentally showed an essential NPC into the water one times too many. They attack me on sight at a later stage when we meet again, and I just can't seem to make them friendly again.

I've tried an assortment of skyrim fixes, from stopcombat+setrelationshiprank to making them un-essential, killing and then resurrecting them. Nothing. They keep aggroing over again.

You may be able to fix this by resetting your faction affiliation using one of the following console commands.

EDIT
before you do any of the following, try this first. Go into the console, click on the NPC with the massive grudge against you, and type resetAi and hit return.

Faction commands

player.AddToFaction [faction id] [0 or 1] - Become allied with a faction.
Example: player.AddToFaction 00028670 1[i/] to become allied with bugs.
(Alternatively, remove the 'player' prefix and this will affect the targeted NPC. 0 is friendly, 1 is allied.)

player.RemoveFromFaction [faction id] - Remove yourself from a faction. Alternatively, remove the 'player' prefix and this will affect the targeted NPC.

removefromallfactions - Removes the target from all factions.
setally [faction id] [faction id] [0 or 1] [0 or 1] - Make two factions friendly (0) or allied (1).
setenemy [faction id] [faction id] [0 or 1] [0 or 1] - Make two factions neutral (0) or enemies (1).

However, I have neither tried this nor can guarantee what other effect it may have for you in game. SAVE at LEAST (2) twice before testing this.

Yeah, I had Curie backstabbing me last night, She went on and on about friendship and all these feelings she had for me, to be getting attacked by Bunker hill and she turned on me. I couldnt kill her, She was abusing her essential status. She just kept getting back up and shooting at me again. So wish I could of killed her.

So basicly, you shouldnt trust companions.

Personally, if they attack you, you are in within your right to put them down <.<

Problem: How do I find out WHAT faction an NPC belongs to?

There seems to be no faction console command to do this.

If Y'all could make your own dang threads, instead of necroposting and digging up a FIVE YEAR OLD THREAD, that'd be great...

I have the same problem but with Caravan one, the car explode next to him and he start to shoot at me for it (after the battle with raider).
After seeing him continue attack me after healing, I design to assign him guard and back to Caravan. It work, he health bar change from red to Yellow again (i was in armor suit)
