Member of: ObjectReference Script

Removes X of the specified item from this reference's inventory, possibly silently.

Syntax

Function RemoveItem(Form akItemToRemove, int aiCount = 1, bool abSilent = false, ObjectReference akOtherContainer = None) native

Parameters

  • akItemToRemove: The item (or base form) to remove from this reference's inventory. If a reference is passed, the reference is deleted once it's removed.
  • aiCount: How many references to remove.
    • Default: 1
  • abSilent: If true, no message will be printed to the screen
    • Default: false
  • akOtherContainer: If not None, the removed item(s) will be moved into this ref's inventory
    • Default: None

Return Value

None.

Examples

; Take away an apple
Chest.RemoveItem(Apple)


; Remove 50 gold from the player
Game.GetPlayer().RemoveItem(GoldBase, 50)

Notes

  • The function accepts a form object, however you can't make a property to a form object, you need to create a property to another type of object that extends form. Most often a MiscObject, or Weapon, etc.
  • If you pass in a form list, it will remove aiCount of each item in the form list from the container. If there isn't aiCount of a particular item in the container, it will remove all of them. If you wish to remove X amount of objects from a container, by checking against a form list, use the following script (the script uses PlayerREF as the ObjectReference to remove items from):
Function SomeFunction()

        int ListSize = myFormList.GetSize()
        int CurrentItems = 0
        int ItemsLeft = 10; remove 10 items, change this to whatever number you want to remove

        while CurrentItems <= ListSize && ItemsLeft > 0
                Form CurrentItem1 = myFormList.GetAt(CurrentItems)
                int ItemCount = PlayerREF.GetItemCount(CurrentItem1)

                PlayerREF.RemoveItem(CurrentItem1, ItemsLeft)
                ItemsLeft -= ItemCount
                CurrentItems += 1
        endwhile

endFunction
  • The function seems to have a preference for equipped items. Or if not equipped items then the first instance of the item that's in inventory (which is the same thing, since when you equip something, it's the first instance of the object in the inventory).
  • The akItemToAdd argument of AddItem - ObjectReference can be a LeveledItem. A LeveledItem as akItemToRemove, however, won't work and the members of the LeveledItem must be passed individually as akItemToRemove.
