Creation an Alias halfway through a quest? : V - Skyrim

» Mon Nov 19, 2012 8:08 am

In a quest stage use

Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(Alias_YourAliasName.GetReference(), 1)

should also work in dialogue etc. if not, use

Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(YourReferencePropertyHere.GetReference(), 1)

The latter of those two compiled nicely in my dialogue fragment. Yaaay! I haven't actually tested to see if it works, but I assume it will. I'll make more noise if it doesn't.

Thanks for all the help, everyone!

No probs

you should however get into the habit of creating a player property. It's much faster than Game.GetPlayer()

In the property window, select actor, then in Cell choose Any, and select the Player. I call my property Player. Some people call it PlayerRef.

Food for thought

Ah yes, people have mentioned that before. I really need to start doing it since it really isn't much extra work. (It's what, like 6 seconds to add the property?

)

Player.AddItem(MyAlias)

PlayerREF.AddItem(MyAlias.GetReference())

Won't work w/o http://www.creationkit.com/GetReference_-_ReferenceAlias.

Going all the way back to the Form level is unnecessary for AddItem. The function permits References to be used, as well (Beth's own setup of the function is a bit misleading in that regard). So just do an AddItem (MyObjectAlias.GetReference()) and it will move the Refernce that is currently filling the Alias into the Player's inventory.

Oh cool, I didn't know that. Thanks for pointing it out to me
