FO4Edit "Dispel with Keyword" problem

[Cirosan]

Maybe one of you all can help me out with a problem I'm having in FO4Edit.

I have two new base effects (Magic Effects); let's call them Effect A and Effect B. Effect A has a lengthy duration, has a custom "Killswitch" keyword, and is tagged with the property "Dispel with Keyword". Effect B has a duration of one second, and also has the Killswitch keyword and the "Dispel with Keyword" property. There are also two new ingestibles, one that applies Effect A to the player and the other that applies Effect B to the player. Effect B's entire purpose is pretty much to dispel Effect A, and from everything I can tell, that's what should be happening - take one ingestible, then the other to dispel its effect. I should add that both are "Fire and Forget" and "Self" effects, in terms of casting type and delivery. However, no matter what I try, I just cannot get Effect B to dispel Effect A, despite sharing the same keyword and both having the "dispel with keyword" flag. Effect A just stays on forever without being dispelled by Effect B.

What am I doing wrong? How can I get Effect B to dispel Effect A?

Disregard; I figured it out earlier this evening.

Am trying to do something very similar. Don't suppose you remember how you did that?

 

No worries, I got this :tongue:

 

Bear in mind, if keywords are shared by more than one different thing, they will dispel each other, e.g. setting the AlcoholEffect keyword as a Dispel Effect will make all magic effects with that keywords to be dispelled when another set of effects with those keywords are activated. Drink a Whiskey, then a Rum, and the Whiskey effects will be nullified
