Mod creation problem: Transfer items between containers

[EDIT: Fixed it, turned out it was just my lack of a clean save file. Sorry for the stupidness, thanks to the replier :)]

 

Hi there,

I've recently starting on modding. I can program in Java & C++, so I can understand the basics of Papyrus.

The first mod I'm working on is to recreate the 'Mojave Express Dropboxes' from Fallout NV. To those that don't know this: basically I want to transfer an item I put into one container to another container.

 

I currently have two containers next to each other: WhiterunBox1 and WhiterunBox2. This piece of code here I attached to the first box.

Scriptname AAAABox1 extends ObjectReference  

ObjectReference Property WhiterunBox2  Auto  

Event OnHit(ObjectReference akAggressor, Form akSource, Projectile akProjectile, bool abPowerAttack, bool abSneakAttack, \
  bool abBashAttack, bool abHitBlocked)

RemoveAllItems(WhiterunBox2, true, false)

EndEvent

So, when I hit the box, it should remove all the items within the box, and transfer them to WhiterunBox2. I tested it in-game: I can store items, and they disappear when I hit the box. However they never end up in the second box. I'm probably not referring to it in the right way. You can see in the images I added my 'properties' where I created the reference to WhiterunBox2 and the window where I gave WhiterunBox2 its name.

 

 

TL;DR: How can I add a reference to a different container correctly, so that I can transfer items to it?

Just to check the obvious stuff first, are you testing on a clean safe each time?

I have a 'mod-save' for testing out mods (been working with simple redecoration mods for quite a while). I'll start a new game and COC to the chests just to make sure now :)

Okay, turns out I'm pretty stupid indeed. Using a completely new game solved the problem.

Thanks for making me double-check :D
