Multiple use items (ie Soap)

[Minsk]

Hi.

I am currently running through different ideas for a mod I'm trying to create. As part of this mod I'm adding bathing as an option but was wondering if there was a way of creating multiple use items such as soap. It just seemed strange that a large bar of soap only lasted for one use. This is the script I'm using at the moment if it helps.

Thank you

Begin _OwlBath

short button
if (OnActivate== 1)
MessageBox "Do you wish to wash?" "No" "Yes"
endif

set button to GetButtonPressed

if (button==0)
Activate
endif

if (button==1)
if ( Player->GetItemCount, "_Soap" == 0 )
MessageBox "You need some soap to have a wash"
endif

if ( Player->GetItemCount, "_Soap" >= 1 )
Player->removeitem "_Soap" 1
FadeTo 100 0.5
FadeTo 0 2.0
MessageBox, "You feel better after that long relaxing bath."
endif
endif

end _OwlBath

Try this. Also, don't use a preceding _ in your script titles or IDs.

Begin OwlBath

short button

if ( OnActivate )
MessageBox "Do you wish to wash?" "Yes" "No"
endif

set button to GetButtonPressed

if ( button == -1 )
return
elseif ( button == 0 )
if ( Player->GetItemCount, "_Soap" == 0 )
MessageBox "You need some soap to wash."
return
else
FadeTo 100 0.5
FadeTo 0 2.0
MessageBox, "You feel better after that long relaxing bath."
endif
else
return
endif

end

Thank you (twice). That's just what I wanted and for the underscore advice, Thanks )

You're welcome. You can remove extra soap bars if you want by adding in the if ( Player->GetItemCount, "_Soap" >= 1 ) & Player->removeitem "_Soap" 1 lines to the else part of the if statement after the MessageBox. It should look something like this:

else
if ( Player->GetItemCount, "_Soap" >= 1 )
Player->removeitem "_Soap" 1
endif
FadeTo 100 0.5
FadeTo 0 2.0
MessageBox, "You feel better after that long relaxing bath."
endif
