Still can't get a radiant quest to work.

Dangit...I still can't get this thing to work...It only has 4 aliases, and I can't figure out what's stopping it from running:

Alias: Ulfric (You give the quest item to him when done. He's set as "Allow reserved, Allow Dead, allow disabled")

Alias: Dungeon (Location Alias. The only condition is that it needs to have a Boss Container.)

Alias: Chest (supposed to be set to the Boss Container in the alias "Dungeon")

Alias: Quest Item (A piece of jewelry, to be created in alias Chest)


Nothing in these aliases has anything weird as far as I can see. I haven't even done much more than setting up the aliases and stages. (I've mainly still testing the quest that leads up to this one) - but I'm getting a "False" from calling the start function on the quest, meaning it's not launching for some reason.

Any ideas?

If it's *just* *not* *running* - try starting off by setting the aliases to optional.
If it works, you know some of them aren't getting filled.
You can then, by elimination, find WHICH one is stopping it ...

Also, sqv command might help ...

AHA! I feel like such a doofus...rechecked http://www.creationkit.com/Bethesda_Tutorial_Radiant_Quests for about the 10th time, and finally noticed that I'd missed this note:

"This part is important: with the ThiefLocation alias highlighted, use the left arrow key to move it so that it's above the Thief alias. Because the aliases will get filled from the top down, order becomes important, and since the Thief is going to be based on this alias, it needs to come after it."

The location was after the chest...thus the chest wasn't filling...

You, sir, just saved me a completely sleepless night. Just ran into that issue. Thank you!
