Order of creating new items

In the original game I liked the change of the fights between chapter one an two when you get the silver sword and suddenly monsters were defeating much easier. I like to extend this sequence of getting "better" weapons in my mod a little bit. So Geralt starts in my mod without a weapon. After some introduction in the situation he gets a dagger.To get to my question. Geralts enters a dark cave. A companion gives him a torch and tell him to lead the way. So I like to give Geralt this torch by script and let him drop the dagger. Because I do not know how to let Geralt drop something by script I destroy the dagger, create a torch on Geralt and after that I create another dagger. But unfortunately although in the script the torch is created first Geralt always has the dagger in his inventory and drops the torch. Someone knows how this problem can be solved?

Does Geralt drop the torch, or does it simply disappear or something? Also, please paste the script that you're using, it'll be easier to find out what goes wrong.-- Sinus

DestroyObject(GetItemPossessedBy(OPC, "dagger"));CreateItemOnObject("touch", OPC);CreateItemOnObject("dagger", OPC);

I also tried to put the first two lines in one script with is called before talking to the companion and and the last into one that is called after. This did not work too.

 

[ailinon]

CreateItemOnObject("touch", OPC);

The supplied torch template is named "it_torch_001" or "it_torch_002" - but perhaps you are intentionally using your own.Did you write "touch" instead of "torch" in your script as well? Or is your item template really named "touch"?

 

[nayava]

That can not be the reason. I just call the items in this script torch and dagger because the names I gave them i23 and i18 does not tell you which one of them is the torch and which is the dagger.

 

[ailinon]

That's why I asked you to post the exact script you were using. So, your script has "i23" and "i18", right?In that case, try to store the result of the CreateItemOnObject function in a variable, and check if it isn't OBJECT_INVALID.
