title says it all, how do we set a chest or other container to have a trap on it? I know where the spell effects are for traps in the spellmaking tab, I know where a trapped chest is in game, when I open in the CS the reference I get from the console when looking at it in game, I do NOT see anything that sets this up as a chest with a trap on it.

But I know for a fact that the chest is trapped (it states that it is trapped in the game!!!!) I just don't know where in the CS it is determined to be a trapped container.

Anybody help me please?

You need to duble-click on a container in Render Window, an then there is "Trap" in lower right corner.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!

please read morrowind scripting for dummies. the first example is exactly this functionality.

There are different kinds of traps. The standard trap is the one that is triggered if you attempt to lockpick and fail. Scripted traps are a whole other ballgame.

For the first, set the spell you wish to go off in the Trap drop-down. For the second, you will need to add a script that does the trap functionality, and then (optionally) calls "Activate".

ah, silly me talking without knowing what i am talking about again, thanks for correcting me
