[Q] Script made by Bethesda not working? : V

» Thu Jun 21, 2012 11:05 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to make a chest that only accepts potions.
Here is the code that I'm using:

Spoiler

ScriptName A_1_WhiterunBreezehome_PcScript extends ObjectReferenceFormList Property AcceptedItemFLST AutoMessage Property ERRORmsgPC_BreezeHome autoEvent OnItemAdded(Form akBaseItem, int aiItemCount, ObjectReference akItemReference, ObjectReference akSourceContainer)	If akSourceContainer == Game.GetPlayer()		If !AcceptedItemFLST.HasForm(akBaseItem)	   	   Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(akBaseItem, aiItemCount, false)	   	   RemoveItem(akBaseItem, aiItemCount, True, akSourceContainer)	   	   Debug.Trace("Invalid Item added to POTION CHEST --")	   	   ERRORmsgPC_BreezeHome.Show()		EndIf	EndifEndEvent

The problem is that it does also not accept the items I have created in my FormList (AcceptedItemFLST) and it gives you back your item as twice as much as you had put it in. So if you put in 2 bottles of healing, it will give you back 4 bottles of healing.

This script is origionally made by Bethesda on the Creation Kit's website http://www.creationkit.com/Complete_Example_Scripts, it is almost at the bottom.
I hope someone can help me with this.

Thanks in advance.

Scripts on that page are not necessarily made by Bethesda. They are contributed by community members.

In this case, these two lines...

Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(akBaseItem, aiItemCount, false)
RemoveItem(akBaseItem, aiItemCount, True, akSourceContainer)

...are doing the same thing, which is why you're getting double the items back. You seem to have added the line "Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(akBaseItem, aiItemCount, false)" as that does not appear on the wiki's script, but it is unnecessary.

Make sure you have correctly setup your formlist property (e.g., that you have clicked the "Properties" button and set the value in the drop-down list to the formlist you created).

The script is not made by Bethesda, but from other users...

Anyway, you're getting back twice the items because you went and added a line for "AddItem". Get rid of it. Also, check to make sure you actually linked the formlist property to your formlist.

When I remove the line Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(akBaseItem, aiItemCount, false) I get back nothing.

Did you actually check your inventory to make sure that nothing was added? There won't be a message on the upper left telling you anything.
