Looking for a specific script

[SykesAtherton]

Hi there, I've never modded anything in my entire life.

 

I'm looking for the script or whatever it's called that removes your items in game and places it in a chest. The same one that takes away all your stuff when you get arrested and sent to jail. I'd like to learn how to lump it in with the werewolf transformation so that all your gear gets removed temporarily when you transform.

 

Anyone know the name of it? or where it can be found within the CK?

It's a command: RemoveAllItems()

It's a command: RemoveAllItems()

I've been trying to use this script command in a small mod item I'm working on... basically it's a garbage disposal unit (!) that I'm adding.

 

It's a Dwemer button activator with a LinkRef to a Dwemer small chest container. Player uses the container to move clutter into, then activates the button to remove the container items.

 

I have:

ObjectReference property GarbageContainer auto

in the main script header, and

GarbageContainer.RemoveAllItems()

within the activation event.

 

It compiles fine, but doesn't remove anything - all items remain in the container.

 

Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

Did you remember to assign the property to the Ref in the CK? {*1}

 

If you did, then make sure you're testing with a clean save.

If it still isn't working add debug line in front of the line that is going wrong. In this case you'll want...

Debug.Notification("Running RemoveAllItems on " + GarbageContainer)

 

{*1} If you're using a linked Ref, then you shouldn't need to do that anyway, as you can use GetLinkedRef() instead.

Thank you! That was the one... I set

ObjectReference myRef

in the header then

myRef =  self.GetLinkedRef()
myRef.RemoveAllItems()

and that did it! Very many thanks for your input! :)

glad to hear you got it sorted :)
