adding gold

[Mishaxhi]

how do i give a specific amount of golf to an NPC?

i have a quest where you have to extort money out of someone. in the interest of freedom i want the player to simply be able to kill them as well, but i can't get the money that needs to be taken on the NPC

tried adding manually with Gold001 but didn't work, even deleted the levelled gold but that didn't work either

then at a stage in the quest dialogue i added

SevariusAtius.AddItem Gold001 11000

this didn't work for somereason then i tried adding a script to the actual NPC

scn sevariusscript


OnDeath


    sevariusatium.additem gold001 11000


end

but this didn't work either

help?

1. Does this NPC have a merchant chest? If so, the gold may end up there.

2. What is "SevariusAtius"? Is it the 'Reference Name' or the 'Editor ID Name'?

SevariusAtius is the editor ID

also he has no merchant chest

actually i've got a workaround, i'll add the gold to the a chest and a key to the chest on sevarius

SevariusAtius is the editor ID

And there is your problem. You must use a 'Reference' ID name.
