SSE GetEquippedItemType. Are duplicates the same type?

[TyburnKetch]

Your 2nd elseif is asking the same thing in your or line. Should not one of them be lantern? Or is that deliberate?

[IsharaMeradin]

TyburnKetch is correct that in your last posting the condition intended to check for the lantern checks for the torch.

 

Sorry about the other, I forgot that those functions run on Actor and that akActionRef is ObjectReference. That's why they failed. Made sure I didn't do that on this one. It is based on your last posted script code. I corrected the aforementioned condition check and did a little adjustment to the logic. Also my intent in trying to use akActionRef was that each use of Game.GetPlayer() makes the script pause and fetch to data from the GetPlayer function on the Game script. Getting it once and storing it will help to speed things up.

I am sorry for breaking in to this thread. I want to give some new ideas.

@ Ishara - I get "You need a naked flame" message even if player has a torch and/or a lantern in inventory. Also when equipping either torch or lantern candle does not light.

@ReDragon - You're always welcome in my threads. Same problem as Ishara - "You need a naked flame" message when player has either/or both but candle does light.

 

In both scripts there was a loop error but was easily fixed parenthesis missing/not required in...

IF player.GetEquippedItemType(0) == 11) - This is the line with the error. I removed the parenthesis at the end.
