You're looking for IsActor. Try replacing the current OnAdd block with: Begin OnAdd set rContainer to GetContainer set fTimer to 0 set bIsActivated to (rContainer.IsActor && rContainer.GetIsReference player == 0) if rContainer.GetIsReference player PlaySound SUBAccessGranted elseif rContainer.IsActor PlaySound SUBBeepBoom endif End pluged it in and as far as i can tell it works.. not sure though because i did get a crash.. but i was tinkering with some other stuffs so it might be that too.. let you know soon. thank you.. you guys rock. all the helpfullness is great.

oh one more thing i just thought of.. is there any way to make that onadd block only call if the container is a NPC and not a actual container like chests & lockers & cabinets. i really only want the onadd to fire if SOMEONE other than the player has it added to their inventory. although i must admit i like that it cant be transfered into any container i added an additional conditional statment to the code you provided to allow the items to be tranfered into one specific safe.. but im sure someone is going to compain if the weapons can only be safely stored in one location (btw your code is still going to be used so the weapon deletes off of a corpse if it was used to create an explosion at the NPC)

beautiful!!!! worked perfectly.. thank you soo much.. and about the endif.. i think that got in there as a copy error when i was removing the broken script but its working perfectly now thanks to you.. and your script validator is pretty nice.. i use it often. just couldnt read my mind to tell me that the code i needed was "removeme" which btw is such a simple, elegant and functional command, i love it... thank you very, very much. now if only i could figure out whats causing the textures to glitch when entering that cell... you cipscis are one person i would gladly provide the files to if you thought you might be able to figure this problem out, as i believe you would be able to help me w/o jeopardizing the secrecy i am going for pre-release with this project. if you think you're up to this let me know and ill figure out a way to get the files to you. ive put a lot together since my last post so i am yet that much closer to a release version. i have a few small dents and dings that i cant seem to figure out... i would say the mod is 85% complete.. that being said.. if you decide to help, i promise your work is going into a project that will reach fruition, i am not going to waste your time, the things i would ask for help on are things that i have put a lot of time into figuring out and just cant seem to pull together.

ok so its like 11th hour with this mod ive been working on.. all together if i can nail a few problems, the design time i have left is less than a day.. ive been working on it for what feels like an eternity and i would really like to release the first version of the mod... this is my first mod.. this is my first post.. i have scripting experience with a variety of programs similar to geck but not fallout specifically i really dont like when people give up trying to fix their code after the first try and post for help.. so believe me when i say this particular bit has been vexing me for DAYS and i am at my end with it and really just want to move on. ok 1 more thing.. i dont really want to release the mod until the whole thing is done. and i dont want to give away too many details about what im doing here. LOOK at the code.. you'll get an idea for whats to come in this mod. many unique behaviors have been scripted in this mod like what you see here.. (and dual operational fusion reactors) so here it is.. SCN SUBweapmineSCRIPT Float TIMER Float isactivated Float runonce REF rContainer Begin onAdd set TIMER to 0 set isactivated to 0 set runonce to 1 END Begin OnDrop if (GetContainer == 0) set TIMER to 0 set isactivated to 1 set runonce to 0 playsound SUBbeepboom ENDIF END Begin GAMEMODE if (isactivated == 1) set timer to TIMER + getSecondsPassed if (TIMER > 10) if (GetContainer == 0) PlaceAtMe DLC03TeslaCannonExplosion 1 1 0 set isactivated to 0 set TIMER to 0 Disable MarkForDelete ENDIF if (GetContainer != player) && (GetContainer != 0) set rContainer to getContainer rContainer.PlaceAtMe DLC03TeslaCannonExplosion 5 1 0 set isactivated to 0 set TIMER to 0 ENDIF ENDIF ENDIF ENDIF if (runonce == 1) if (getContainer == player) playsound SUBaccessgranted else set TIMER to 0 set isactivated to 1 playsound SUBbeepboom ENDIF set runonce to 0 ENDIF END ok so to explain whats going on here and what i need from you. the onAdd and onDrop begin blocks are basically the activators for the script inside the GAMEMODE block. the reason i did it this way is so i could use the timer the first part of the GAMEMODE block says if you drop me (not Xfer into container) in 10 seconds i am going to explode, DISABLE AND DELETE. the second part says if you move me into a container or onto a NPC in 10 seconds i am going to explode but with 5 times the intensity the last part of the GAMEMODE block says whenever i am moved into a inventory one of 2 things happens if the inventory is the player, a access granted sound is played if the inventory is NOT the player the same action as a xfer into a container so what it does is this any item can use the script if that item is picked up by the player.. a sound says access granted if its picked up by someone other than the player, droped onto the ground or reverse pickpocketed onto someone a explosion happens wherever it is. I.E. you and only you can use the item.. all else who try will die. and if you drop it it goes bye-bye. ok so this is what i cant figure out... for some reason i cant remove the item from a container when the explosion happens.. CTD every time.. i dont get it this is what i tried: ref rSelf ;;at the top obviously if (GetContainer != player) && (GetContainer != 0) ;;;;;; this is already there and working, just providing it so you set rContainer to getContainer ;;;;;; know where i put the new code below set rSelf to GetSelf rContainer.removeItem rSelf 1 i think this didnt work because removeitem needs a object ID and getself returns a ref ID ??? correct me if im wrong about this!! how do i get the object id from a ref if thats it?? this script is working as is but without the behavior desired above as described so you should be able to set ANY item to use this script (preferably a weapon) just remove the playsound functions from the code and it should work just fine. if you like what you see, know this there is a lot more like this in the mod.. and if you help me figure this out ill be that one step closer to release. oh one more thing.. and this is a shot in the dark because i really dont have much more info right now as to whats causing this, but upon entering one of my interior cells, and only 1 of them, sometimes the meshes/textures or whatever for the first person arms disappear and the texture for the gun disappears... im not really wanting to rebuild the cell but at this point i cant seem to pinpoint whats causing the glitch in only that one place.. so unfortunately im considering it.
