RemoveItem & FormLists : V

» Tue Jun 19, 2012 5:01 pm

Trying to get a script to remove all items from the player in a specific form list and put them in a container. Currently i've just been passing in 100, hoping the player never has more than that many of each item.

ex:

Game.GetPlayer().RemoveItem(SomeFormList, 100, true, SomeContainer)

My question is how do i make it remove ALL of each item in the list without having to give a specific number of them to remove?

I can get the intended effect by looping through the form list and use GetItemCount() to figure out how many to remove but that is slow as hell.

something like this:

int index = 0

While (index < list.GetSize())

Form f = list.GetAt(index)
int count = Game.GetPlayer().GetItemCount(f)
if(count)
Game.GetPlayer().RemoveItem(f, count, false, somecontainer)
endif
index = index + 1

EndWhile

but like i said, that is stupid slow.

the wiki has this note:

If you pass in a form list, it will remove aiCount of each item in the form list from the container. If there isn't aiCount of a particular item in the container, it will remove all of them.

If i pass in 10, and there's only 9 it will remove all of them. Cool. But if there's 20 and i pass in 10 it only remove 10. How to make it remove ALL everytime?

If I remember correctly, you can call http://www.creationkit.com/GetItemCount_-_ObjectReference with a http://www.creationkit.com/FormList_Script to get the total count of all items in the list in that ObjectReference's inventory.

From GetItemCount at the wiki:

If a form list, it will count how many of each item in the form list is in the container and sum it all up

Not exact, but i guess it will work.

But, if you have 10 iron ingots, and 10 gold ingots, if your formlist had all the ingots, the GetItemCount would return 20.

Just put in a number like 9999. It really does not matter, it will remove up to that number from the player and place the number removed into the chest.

It's a working.

The final solution:

int count = Game.GetPlayer().GetItemCount(SomeFormList)
Game.GetPlayer().RemoveItem(SomeFormList, count, true, SomeContainerToStashTo) <---'true' to suppress messages as it will flood the notify area

thanks

Yeah i thought the same thing. Just seems like wasted cycles.

will use the 9999 version.

Actually i went with the GetItemCount version because it gives me the option of playing a different activator sound if items were present or not.
