Adding a quest item to a container

[TimidGal]

Hey. So I am at the stage of my quest where an npc gives the player a quest item, and I want to be able to add that quest item to a specific container. When in game, however, when I try to add the item to the container it doesnt give me to the option to add it because it is a quest item (doesnt show in the xfer window).

 

Any ideas on where I am going wrong?

The Fallout 4 Creation Kit wiki doesn't have any current information on this, and when that's the case, it's generally best to defer to the information on the Skyrim Creation Kit wiki. In this case, you may be able to accomplish what you want by adding a new quest alias that points to the container, and marking the container itself as a quest object along with your item alias. This should tell the game to treat your container as an exception to the rules for quest items.

The container is a quest item already. A quest item spawns in it, the player removes it, then adds a different quest item to it. Just can't get the 2nd item to be added.
