Hello,

I'm trying to make a script that replaces an armor when another one is equipped. When the player equips an armor, the script checks if the armor is in a form list, and if yes, replaces it for another armor in another formlist which is at the same position inside the formlist.

Here comes the trouble. I can easily detect if the armor is in the formlist, but I can't manage to retrieve it's position inside the formlist (didn't find a command for this...). So I made a while loop that searches for the index, as I can then use that index with the GetAt command to retrieve the new armor from the other formlist.

Now, my while loop is giving me the following error on compilation: (19,17): cannot compare a objectreference to a armor (cast missing or types unrelated)

This is in this line: If Reference == Cuirass

I think I understand why the error comes, I'm trying to compare an armor to an object reference? Anyway, how can I solve this? By the way, it's using some SKSE functions...

Scriptname ArmorReplace extends ReferenceAliasInt iIndexObjectReference ReferenceFormList property ArmorsVanilla AutoFormList property ArmorsModified AutoEvent OnObjectEquipped(Form akBaseObject, ObjectReference akReference)if akBaseObject as Armor  Debug.Trace("I just equipped an armor!")  Armor Cuirass = Game.GetPlayer().GetWornForm(0x00000004) as Armor  if (ArmorsVanilla.HasForm(Cuirass))   Game.GetPlayer().RemoveItem(akBaseObject, 1, True)   iIndex = ArmorsVanilla.GetSize()   While(iIndex > 0)	iIndex -= 1	Reference = ArmorsVanilla.GetAt(iIndex) as ObjectReference	If Reference == Cuirass	 Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(ArmorsModified.GetAt(iIndex), 1, true)	EndIf   EndWhile  EndIfendifendEvent

Thanks in advance for any help!

Try:You don't want an ObjectReference, but a Form instead. All ObjectReferences are Forms, but not all Forms are ObjectReferences. Only an ObjectReference which is persistent or is currently filling a quest's ReferenceAlias is both an ObjectReference and a Form.

For instance, assume...

ExcaliburREF [REFR:XX00000801] (places ExcaliburWEAP "Excalibur" [WEAP:XX0000800] in GRUP Cell Persistent Children of Elsweyr "Holding Cell" [CELL:000B9BC6])

... is filling a property or is currently a quest's ReferenceAlias.

Event OnObjectEquipped(Form akBaseObject, ObjectReference akReference)	If akReference == ExcaliburREF		Debug.Trace("ExcaliburREF equipped") ; Will fire	EndIfEndEvent

If [REFR:XX00000801] is not persistent or filling an alias, 'None' would be returned, like another instance of ExcaliburWEAP creted by AddItem, EquipItem, or a placed Ref that's not persistent/filling an alias.

Thanks a lot!

Worked like a charm... You also cleaned the code and made it shorter and clearer!

I read about the EquipItem issue on the CK Wiki not registering as equipped, that's why I wanted to add the item first. But it might actually come handy that it doesn't register it, as I need to repeat the same process on reverse and I could get into a replacing loop. If it doesn't register it as equipped right away, that might solve my issue.

Thanks again for your extremely helpful, well explained and uninterested answer!!!


Edit: Forget about the replacement loop, I will be using the OnObjectUnequipped event...

Glad it all worked out
