script : give item to a NPC in the right slot

[jrc24]

Hi

 

with script,

 

How can I give item to a NPC and put this item in the right slot (hand, head or arm...) ?

 

I know :

 

int nSlot = (number_of_slot)

object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("npc_name");

object oItem=GetObjectByTag("item_name");

 

I try CreateItemOnObject and ActionEquipItem with no success

 

Please can you tell me how must I use this functions if it is the right functions

 

thanks

The functions that start with "Action" do not have a parameter of oNPC in them (they are assumed to work on OBJECT_SELF). So to get them to work on oNPC you have to use the AssignCommand function.

 

It sounds like you were very close though.

 

void main() {
int nSlot = INVENTORY_SLOT_RIGHTWEAPON;
object  oNPC=GetObjectByTag("npc_name");
object  oItem=GetObjectByTag("item_name");
CreateItemOnObject("item_name",oNPC);
AssignCommand(oNPC,ActionEquipItem(oItem, nSlot));
}

ok I write that :

 

void main() {

int nSlot = (4);

object oNPC=GetObjectByTag("Zaalbar");

object oItem=GetObjectByTag("my_item_name");

CreateItemOnObject("my_item_name", oNPC);

AssignCommand(oNPC, ActionEquipItem(oItem, nSlot));

}

 

result :

 

I get my item in general inventory but not in Zaalbar hand

 

if you see what could be the problem, thanks

Make sure you use: "int nSlot = INVENTORY_SLOT_RIGHTWEAPON;" instead of "int nSlot = (4);"

 

TK102's script should respond to 99.9% of the needs. However, depending on what you want to do, this can be another possibility:

If your npc is already equipped with an item that you want to replace definitely (you will loose the old item), try:

void main()
{
  object  oNPC=GetObjectByTag("npc_name");
  object oOldobject =  GetItemInSlot(INVENTORY_SLOT_RIGHTWEAPON,OBJECT_SELF);
   object oNewobject = CreateItemOnObject("my_item_name",OBJECT_SELF);
   if (GetIsObjectValid (oOldobject))
       {
       DestroyObject(oOldobject);
       }

AssignCommand(oNPC,ActionEquipItem(oNewobject,INVENTORY_SLOT_RIGHTWEAPON,TRUE));

}
