I have a scripted section where the players items are all removed, and they are equipped with some gear. I would like to hotkey the two weapons they get, as access to the pipboy is turned off for the time being. Can this be done? All I can find is a FOSE function to get what item is hotkeyed in what place, but can you actually set an item to be hotkeyed? Thanks.

There is no "SetHotkeyItem" function. The closest thing you can do at the moment is set up a couple of scripted hotkeys. You can use the default hotkeys for this, but if the player holds them down to see what items are hotkeyed, the items won't be shown in the wheel like they usually would.

Scripted hotkeys are fine. The time when this is needed is mostly controlled anyway. They cant open their pip boy, leave a certain area, or do really anything but run around killing stuff. Then at a certain point they get all their stuff back and are free to wander again. So how would I go about making some scripted hotkeys? That would be more than fine.

You are likely looking for http://fose.silverlock.org/fose_command_doc.html#GetKeyPress and http://fose.silverlock.org/fose_command_doc.html#IsKeyPressed. There are a number of other functions to detect if keys are disabled or enabled. Instead of using keys, you may also want to detect if a given control (such as Attack) is being pressed by using http://fose.silverlock.org/fose_command_doc.html#IsControlPressed.

I've got a tutorial available for this sort of thing on my website - http://www.cipscis.com/fallout/tutorials/detecting_keypresses.aspx
