» Mon Nov 10, 2014 6:16 pm I have been tearing my hair out trying to create what appeared to be a simple script for my mod. I have spent 5+ hours researching and trying to figure out what I am doing wrong; tried many different variations of the script.
All I want to do is attach a script on an item. When the player has the item in inventory the players speed will be set to 0. After 10 seconds the item will be dropped out of inventory onto the ground and restore the speed back to the player. Also when dropped the item must have a scale of 2x (when it was initially picked up).
How would you do this?
I am posting one of my many variations of this script. This particular script has an doubling issue and a casting issue. When I, in game, drop the item it works perfectly, before the 10 second time ends. If the script drops the item it won't cast the spell after dropping and won't remove the item from my inventory, just adds a new item to the player's feet.
