It seems the "OnUpdate" event (registerforupdate) does not work with any armor items (scripts).

Anyone else had this same problem or is it meant to be this way? (if it is then thats weird because OnUpdate works fine with weapon item scripts).

There's probably a problem with your script, please post it.

Nope I am 99% certain its not the script since I use the same script on a weapon item and it works perfectly, heres the script:



Event OnUpdate()

Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(ArmorToken, 99, false) ;; a property is attached to this script for this item

endevent


Event OnEquipped(Actor akActor)

registerForUpdate(1)

EndEvent

Did you change the type of script that it extends from, from a weapon script to an armor script?

(I don't even know if this is necessary, but worth a shot?)

Both weapon and armor items have the "object reference" extension so thats not the problem.
