How can she carry so much food! : IV

» Tue Sep 24, 2013 1:10 am

Sorry for the topic title, but did not know what other way to express what is going on with my companion. Her name is Makes-Herself-A-Sandwich and she is from a CM partners mod. Seems she wants to make sandwiches all the time and carries a lot of food. Here is a pic: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/43/rid3.png/

As you can see, she is carrying a million hams, onions and bread loafs. I have never seen this behavior before and I have used CM Partners for a long time.

Can I edit her and fix this myself or should I reset her?

And yet she is not overencumbered...

I had seen the game use the K suffix when the item count got to 10³ (gold coins), and here it uses M when getting to 10⁶ as one would expect. I have wonder what will it use once it gets to 10⁹, G? Or will it explode before that?

What mod is the companion from? It sounds like it could be one of its scripts giving her food items with no control.

I was wondering that myself...I noticed in the construction set that those inventory items are marked with a -1.

That's usual procedure to ensure an NPC has an endless supply of a particular item, but for his own use only. Maybe it can interact strangely with companion share scripts and result in things such as these, checking their inventory while they are alive, but I hadn't heard of it.

Aha, I believe qwertyasdfgh nailed the problem. Companion mods typically use that method, transferring items to a container for you to check and back when you're done. I wonder how could this problem be avoided when dealing with negative count items then.

BTW the correct link would be http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/33384 for the mod page, not the download prompt.

Whoops! Sorry about that migck.

qwertyasdfgh, that's seems like the culprit. Now I just have to edit that NPC and change the counts to positive.

Thanks to both of you for your help. :banana:
