Hello all. I have replaced a number of the Dragon Wall dragons with my own dragons, and I'd like them to drop another item upon death. I've tried placing it in their inventory, and that didn't seem to work. Then I tried just adding directly to the player's inventory through an ondeath event script on the Dragon itself (as in, not an alias, directly on the instance of the dragon). That didn't work either. Is there any way to make a dragon drop another item?

Here's my script if that helps.

Scriptname OnDeathHeart extends ObjectReference Ingredient Property TBJDragonheart  Auto event OnDeath()   Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(TBJDragonheart, 1)endEvent

if you have your own dragons, give them your own death item leveled list.

For example,
>Items >LeveledItem >DeathItemDragon01

The death item leveled list is selected from the dragons actor properties. Its right on the 'traits' tab.

Just to confirm (because you didn't say and I always forget this step) once the script is on the dragon, did you edit the properties of the script to assign an ingredient item to the TBJDragonheart property?

Tried that, didn't work.

Its called a leveled list because not everything is selected everytime. Its random.
You may not have tried enough, or put the percentage chance high enough for your new item to spawn.

And you need to make your own leveled list.

Yes, I did.

Is there any way to give an item a probability of 100% to show up? Because I notice that the probabilities of getting scales is very high, so there must be a way to manipulate this.

I took the Lcharddragondeathlist and made a copy of it, added in my Dragon Heart. Didn't take, but I think its because of the percent odds thing.

Hmm, maybe not actually. I have it in there as a 0 ChanceNone item, and when I preview drops, it is always in there. It only doesn't work in game.

perhaps there is something wrong with your 'dragon heart' object.
You can test it by making a container, and placing one in it in the world.

Also make sure your using a clean save game.
