[LE] How to prevent unarmed follower from picking up weapons?

[NotZach99]

I'm trying to make a follower that doesn't use weapons and just about everything works except for the fact that after you kill one person he grabs their weapon and starts using it. Anyone know a fix?

Not exactly sure how to prevent picking up weapons, but you could build a constant effect/self ability with a script that checks for any weapon equipped and then either unequips or removes the item entirely (figure unequip might work better but then it sort of turns your follower into a bit of a mule if they have the inclination to pick up weapons off the ground).

 

To deal with the inclination part, that's the I'm not exactly sure part of my response, but I assume it's somewhere in the follower's AI behavior which isn't really my forte.
