* Be careful about handling things OnCellAttach and OnCellDetach in Riften.

* If an NPC is attempting to use their Activate package on a Furniture, but is killed before they reach the Furniture, then [http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1513844-isfurnitureinuse-is-true-if-actor-died-before-activating-it/ the Furniture will remain reserved]. | |||
** An acceptable workaround is to use a Travel package to bring your NPC within activation range of the Furniture, and ''then'' run an Activate package. This method may allow other NPCs to snatch the Furniture out from under you, but it prevents indefinite reservations if your NPC dies. | |||

*** Enabling and disabling the reserving NPC | |||
*** The player using the furniture themselves | |||
*** The player using the Wait function | |||
