MWSE- GetItemCount Broken?

[v3nture]

Hey,

Im new to scripting with MWSE and one issue Ive run into Is that the following bit will run find in vanilla morrowind but will not with mwse.

My first assumption was that with mwse I had to assign the player as a reference but havent had much luck. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Begin vsthisworks

if ( player->GetItemCount, "vs_ingred_Ember_01" == 1 )
	messagebox "pholdember"
endif

if ( player->GetItemCount, "vs_ingred_ember_01" == 0 )
	messagebox "noember"
endif
 
end vsthisworks

 

It all stems from testing some simple detection

Begin vs_mwseTest

long pRef		; The Player
long pcTarget	; The Players target

long ContCheck
long ContName ;TypeString "Burning Coals"
long ContNCheck

short cCont
short isCont

Setx pRef to xGetRef, "Player"
Setx pcTarget to xGetPCTarget
Setx ContCheck to pcTarget->xRefType
Setx ContName to xStringBuild, "Burning Coals" 
Setx ContNCheck to pcTarget->xGetName

;ifx ( pRef->GetItemCount, "vs_ingred_ember_01" == 0 )
	;messagebox "no ember"
;endif

if ( pcTarget == 0 )
	;messagebox "nothing looked at"
	return; do nothing
endif


if ( ContName != ContNCheck )
	set cCont to 1 ;player looking at wrong container
	if ( cCont == 1 )
		;Messagebox "not looking at rock"
	endif
else
	set cCont to 2 ;player looking at right container
	if ( cCont == 2 )
		;Messagebox "looking at rock"
	endif
endif

;container detection;
if ( ContCheck == 1414418243 ) ;reftpe container
	set isCont to 1
	;Messagebox "container"
else
	return
endif

;container detection;
end vs_mwseTest

Hello,
Depending on what kind of mod you're creating, you may use Lua instead of mwscript with mwse, you'll find lots of information here https://mwse.github.io/MWSE/guides/introduction/ and if you want some examples on how container / inventory works with, go check QuickLoot source code https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/46283 or my mod https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/52918
