SSE Actors not using Quest Routines or equipping items

[Domenicus7]

I am trying to make a mod, but I have two problems:

• NPCs I use ignore all AI packages I give them in a quest. I'm pretty sure that the conditions for the packages are becoming true but they just don't do what I want them to. I am calling Alias.GetActorReference().Evaluatepackage() on them.
• I can't figure out how to force an actor to equip an item. I've tried doing actor.additem and actor.equip but nothing happens. I'm doing it like so:

Function tryArrest(Actor actorToCheck)
    debug.notification(self +" trying to arrest "+actorToCheck)
    debug.notification(actorToCheck.IsDead())
    if(!actorToCheck.IsDead())
        debug.notification(actorToCheck+ " is alive, cuffing them")
        actorToCheck.AddItem(PrisonerCuffs)
        actorToCheck.equipItem(PrisonerCuffs, True)
        endif


kMyQuest.tryarrest(Alias_Betrid.GetActorReference())

 

 

Can anyone help with either problem?

Try adding a small wait between additem and equipitem.

 

I don't remember why, but sometimes it's necessary to do that when certain functions are called behind each other.

 

Utility.wait(0.1)
