Placing a custom object in a cell with owners...

[mz07]

So I made an object and placed it in Tenpenny tower's lobby. I made sure to check the my object doesn't have any owners to it, but in game the object appears red and looting it gives negative karma. Any ideas?

I believe that if the cell has an owner, and the object doesn't, the object will inherit that ownership. If you want to just pick it up, make the player the owner.

Thanks for the reply, but how do I make the player the owner?

Doubleclick on the object you placed and go to the ownership tab. Choose from the dropdown box.

Well, the object isn't red anymore, but I still lose karma for some reason...

I don't know how that works in existing save games. Try an old one where you haven't been to that room yet.

If all else fails, open the console, click the item, and type 'setownership'.
