Trying to orient the PC while the player is directly controlling them is pointless, as it will be ignored/overriden. You'll need to either put the trigger further away out of direct line of sight, or trigger a cutscene with a fade-out to hide the spawn-in. As to the Harbinger assassins, no, you can't replicate their exact process, since Obsidian added new engine and script functions that allow for creatures to have their render status toggled on and off. You could approximate it by spawning them in off-screen with the stealth effect either applied in their OnSpawn or applied afterwards, then jump them into position. The Harbinger assassins don't get their render flag enabled for 2 seconds after they spawn, to allow time to add the stealth effect. They then have an OnDamage event in their UserDefine script that removes the stealth effect. This also uses an added function not in K1, but I think that could be gotten around by chaining a few other functions together (presumably why Obsidian added a new function to do it in one command).

The numbers I mentioned before are for before the final romance conversation. So if they're set to that in your save, they're wrong. I don't have any recent Bastila romance saves to check, but I believe K_SWG_BASTILA should be at 12 at that point in the romance.

In case anyone still cares, I've investigated this at length. First of all, Dan's advice above is for Kotor 1 items. Remember how in K1, weapons and armors only had 1 possible upgrade per slot, and what that upgrade did exactly depended on the weapon or armor itself? Yeah. That's what those "Upgrade required to activate" properties were for. In Kotor 2, upgradeability is governed by the UpgradeLevel field. Here's a list of UpgradeLevel values, taken from http://z6.invisionfree.com/Mandalorian16965/ar/t51.htm So, in order to change upgradeability, you have to open the relevant .uti file and change the UpgradeLevel value. The tricky thing is that Kotor Tool's display of .uti files is buggy, and it won't show you the UpgradeLevel correctly, or allow you to change it. Use KGFF instead. (BTW, when using KGFF, after changing a value in the edit boxes on the right side, be sure to then click on the left side of the window, so that you see the value listed there update. Took me forever to figure out why the hell my changes weren't being saved!). For armors you can still use Kotor Tool, because it (faultily) displays UpgradeLevel in the Body Variation box, so if you change the Body Variation value, you're actually changing the upgrade level! For weapons, you have no choice but to use KGFF.
