[LE] Disable Food in Combat

[dacisco101]

I can disable the healing property of food when it is used in combat, but the food is still consumed. Can I disable the use of food in combat and provide a message to the player when they try (i.e. "You cannot use this while in combat.")?

Try this, maybe it works for you. Make a new quest, create a referencealias for this and set player as unique actor. Attach the script as follow, fill properties and try it out ingame with your esp-file loaded.

Scriptname dacPlayerAliasFoodScript extends ReferenceAlias
{do not allow food eating during combat}

; could be useful, but try it out

OnCombatStateChanged() doesn't fire for the player. You need something listening for IsInCombat(), either as a condition or as a Papyrus function, instead.
