How do I make an NPC give the player an item?

[ZenethXR71]

I'm creating a quest but I need to know how to make the NPC give the player an item after pressing a certain dialog option. Please help

[Xaranth]

put 'player.additem ItemID int:Count' in the result script for that dialogue option.

Do I include the 'int:'?

[Xaranth]

No, I was emulating the GECK wiki.

[ZenethXR71]

The id? As in 002fs024? (That's just an example ID, I dunno if it's anything)

[Xaranth]

Since your not using the ingame console, you can use the EditorID. There's noting stopping you from using the FormID, but there's no need to, either.

[ZenethXR71]

Ok. I'm using it for a key.

So it would be, player.additem 00FirstBossKey 1?

 

(00FirstBossKey is the editor id)

[Xaranth]

Yes, but you need to change the editorID. If it starts with a number, the compiler thinks it's a FormID. And I was wrong earlier; you can't use the formID in scripts because it changes depending on the mod's position in the load order. So you need to rename your key so that it doesn't start with a number. If you still want it to be at the top of the list, use AAA or something to prefix it.

Thanks you've helped a lot. Just one more question if you don't mind.

How to I make a quest objective to kill an enemy?

Set the objective target to the enemy's reference and make its condition GetDead != 1
