I am trying to have the option of adding Armour sets to leveled lists via a separate esp so that users can decide if they want them to turn up on npc's by esmifying the base file to make it work as a master, but I cant get any sort of consistent result. Sometimes the items just don't show up in any of the leveled lists, sometimes actors show up naked when they should be wearing it, and sometimes it works but generally stops working the next time I edit the file. I can't isolate a reason for any of this, it all seems to happen completely randomly. This is probably something really stupid that I've overlooked, but i would greatly appreciate any help you can offer.

I Had a plan for a mod that edited some creatures stats, I started off by creating a cell and placing one of each creature I planned to edit in it so I could easily test them without having to go out and find one. I placed two frost trolls, but i discovered that the changes only affected one of themm so I went out and found the one on the path to High Hrothgar. It wasnt affected either. to be completely sure I turned the frost trolls health down to 1 and added a few weapons to its inventory, but when I tested them I found that only the first troll had on health. however the rest of them had the weapons in their inventory. I found the same was true for the troll on the path to High Hrothgar. I went into the CK and dropped a few more trolls down in my test room to see if they would be affected. To my suprise not only were they not effected but the first troll now had normal health. I'm not sure whether this is a bug or just a mistake on my part, but I would greatly appriciate any insight you can offer.
