Your script errors-

 

(71,20): required (...)+ loop did not match anything at input '=='
(71,4): function variable iButtonB may not shadow a previously defined variable

I know you said you didn't compile it.

[maxarturo]

Put brackets () in all :

If iButtonA == 0

to

If (iButtonA == 0)

Sorry... made it on the go...

[antstubell]

Not to worry, was in fact some typos 'Esle' instead of 'Else'. Brackets were not required after fixing the typos.

Still with issues though.

When choosing Flint, Equip Torch appears.

When choosing Torch, no message appears. Everything else seems fine.

Creating script on the go or during lunch break can easily produce typos...

..................................................................................................

I got a little confused with all those "Messages" and probably you have assigned wrongly your messages.

I made a few changes to the script for better understanding, I also change the :

iButtonA = EquipTorch.Show()
TO
EquipTorch.Show()

Because i dont really know what you have actually done with all those messages, see it and change it according to your settings and needs.

* This is a strip down version of one of my scripts, just like your "Torch Explosion" script which was also a strip down version of my three co-operating - communicating "Explosion" Scripts , so it should be working fine if your messages are correctly done.

 

* I was also having issues with my messages in my Exchange Dragon Souls Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3 > Perks Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3 > Advance Skill Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3 > Gain Health Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3 > Gain Stamina Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3 > Gain Magicka Lv 1, Lv 2, Lv 3 > Remove Gold > Remove Filled Black Soul Gems Script, and all of that vice versa and mixed.

And at the end it was just the messages assign wrongly... although simple, it can get very confusing...

Right then, I made a few changes to the script because some things were not happening and I think I made a little progress.

Still though the script does not make the player equip a torch. Also functions are repeated but for now just want to get the player to equip a torch or fire will not light. The script changes are minimal and I will work on them more once this Equip A Torch can be solved. Thank you for your time and patience.

I didn't make the script to force "Equip Torch" on player, but instead, if is not equiped when activated will show the "No Torch Message" and exit the SCRIPT > to be RE - ACTIVATED.

I did not understand you wanted something like that....

[maxarturo]

The "(Game.GetPlayer().GetEquippedItemType(0) != 11)" can not be use to force the player to equip the torch, this is just for CHECKING if the Player has a Torch equipped.

Instead you have to try to use this instead to "force equip torch" on the Player :

Function EquipItem(Form akItem, bool abPreventRemoval = false, bool abSilent = false) native

Should look something like this, example :

If iButtonA == 0

    Game.GetPlayer().EquipItem(MyTorch)  ; Force to equip the Toch when Button 0 is press

    LitFire()  ; Run "Function LitFire()"

Check "creationkit.com" for it and read the NOTES, because if i remember correctly there is a warning of some kind for the use of it.

A little offended, I guess you just high-lighted the fact that I was never any good at this to begin with.

These people don't know of you and your history with modding though. I remember you from the old beth forums, if I'm not mistaken(maybe I am, since I been here at the nexus forever too, you wont know me though, but I was Terra Nova over there) and I remember you were pretty good with scripting, but you took that looooong break and it's only natural for you to forget everything, so keep at it, and it will all come back to you.

History sometimes can just be an obstacle to progression, and we all need from time to time a little friendly push to get us unstuck...

 

This actually pushed antstubell to try to create his first more complicated script all by himself !.

If you want to evolve, you need to forget the past...

Well, it loses something in the translation.

I remember you. I was in the process of making a mod called Little Elsweyr. Videos of that mod are still on my toob channel. I stopped doing that mod because of more pressing life events. I did consider going back to it a few times but I didn't have rnough 'proper' time to devote to it and also because other modders where taking and making bigger strides than myself into Elsweyr related mods Beyond Skyrim for example - can't compete with those huys. So now I find I have time to start afresh and it is frustrating that things I used to know are now foreign language to me.

As usual the guys and gals here are doing a wonderful thing by helping me. Who knows, this time I may actually finish a mod.

 

"The past is a record of evolution. If we don't remember what our teachers taught us, how can we teach?"

Quite Me.

 

@maxarturo - Issues with forcing an item to equip are basically user-made items may f**k up and if player doesn't have the item then the player will be given one. First issue is a non-issue for me and the condition set in the choices presented should nullify this. Saying that I haven't tried altering the script yet.

Isn't there a way for the script at the point where player is told "You must equip a torch" (a torch that the player has) to simply 'bug out'/stop/end so player has to go to inventory equip a torch and start over?
