Adding Magic Effects (with duration, magnitude, etc) to Items via FO4Edit Script?

[LeahTheUnknown]

Say I have several items of food in a mod, and I want to add/remove a magic effect to/from all of them. Say, for example, I want to remove the radiation damage on all vanilla food.

 

I've started an xEdit script that attempts to do this, but it, well, doesn't...

unit RemoveRadsScript;

const

    RadString = 'DamageRadiationChem "Chem: Radiation Damage" [MGEF:00024056]';

Function Process(eWorking: IInterface): integer;

var 

    iEcount, i: integer;
    eEffects: IInterface;
    
    begin
        eEffects := ElementBySignature(eWorking, 'Effects');
	    iECount := ElementCount(eEffects);
        for i := 1 to iECount do
	    	begin
				eEFID := GetEditValue(ElementBySignature(ElementByIndex(eEffects, iECount)), 'EFID');
				if eEFID = RadString then
					RemoveByIndex(eEffects, iECount, FALSE);
			end;
    end;
end.

Where I assume it is failing is in the "eEffects := ElementByPath(eWorking, 'Effects');" part. Since there is no overarching signature for the magic effects, I don't know what to use instead of 'Effects', as that's what they are labeled as in xEdit, as seen here:

 

 

Anyone have any information on how to correct this, I would be super happy!

  eEFID: string;

begin

  eEffects := ElementByPath(e, 'Effects');

  for i := 0 to ElementCount(eEffects) do begin

    eEFID := GetElementEditValues(ElementByIndex(eEffects, i), 'EFID');

    if eEFID = RadString then

      RemoveByIndex(eEffects, i, FALSE);

  end;

end;

end.

Whoo! Thanks so much! Still kind of new to xEdit scripting, so I'm not completely familiar with the nuance of the various function.

 

It works now. Again, thank you.

I'm pretty new to it too, but I've been practicing a lot for the last month, and I think that I've done a little mistake in this script, in the for loop, it goes from 0 to the count when it should go from 0 to count -1, for this end there's a function, Pred(), which returns the value of the passed integer minus 1:

for i := 0 to Pred(ElementCount(eEffects)) do begin

Like in any other programming language, if the count is 5, it contains 5 index: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. So the loop goes from 0 to 4 (5-1).

I just used

for i := 1 to ElementCount(eEffects) do

Seems to work.
