Need scripting help

[simsim899]

Hello. I am literally brand new to scripting. I've only ever made one script which is really simple, where you activate something and it gives you an item. Now I want to do something a little bit more advanced but I have absolutely no idea how. Basically what I want to do is make a script so that when you add a certain item to a container (the container only accepts certain items as well) another object will then give you that certain item when you activate it.

Problem is I have no idea where to begin, I don't really know papyrus, and I could use some help. If anyone is willing, I'd really appreciate it a lot Thank you!

I suck at this but let's combine our suckiness.

So you want a script to make the container only accept a certain item - there may already be a functionality in the game for that.  Like Armor Mannequins only accept Armor, Jewelry, and I think Shields but are still considered containers.

As for put Item A into Box A and have Box B create Item B... can you tell me exactly what you're doing with that?

Or is it more like Item A into Box A makes Item A disappear form Box A and appear in Box B.
