[LE] Auto-Delete Item Script

[heschlim]

This is my first script so bare with me. The goal is to have it automatically disable/delete the weapons and armor if they are dropped from the inventory into the game world or moved into a different container. So far, I've managed to get it to work when dropped into the world, but it will not delete the item once it has moved into a container. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Scriptname __fade extends ActiveMagicEffect
{My first script!}

Event OnItemRemoved(Form akForm, int aiItemCount, ObjectReference akItemReference, ObjectReference akDestContainer)
  debug.messagebox("item removed: form=" + akForm.GetName() + ", item=" + akform)
	  if akForm == my_armor || akForm == my_armor2 || akForm == weapon1 || akForm == weapon2 || akForm == weapon3 || akForm == weapon4
		if akDestContainer
			debug.messagebox("put in container")
			akItemReference.Disable()
		   Debug.Trace("The item dissipates as I let go of it.")
	  else
			debug.messagebox("dropped on ground")
			akItemReference.Disable()
		   Debug.Trace("The item dissipates as I let go of it.")
	  endIf
  endIf
endEvent

For items placed in a container or inventory use RemoveItem without a target container.

As IsharaMeradin said.

You could also do 2 EVENTS:

Event OnItemRemoved(Form akForm, int aiItemCount, ObjectReference akItemReference, ObjectReference akDestContainer) > Just for the "dropped on ground"

Event OnContainerChanged(ObjectReference akNewContainer, ObjectReference akOldContainer) > Just for the "put in container".

Event OnContainerChanged(ObjectReference akNewContainer, ObjectReference akOldContainer) > Just for the "put in container".

 

They could but then they'd have to condition both to rule out the other. Better to stick with a single event and handle both scenarios within.

Yeap... you're right...

Just in case you want to modify your effect script. Keep in mind unique script names are very important!
