How to equip/unequip a helmet?

[temnix]

I wanted to write a simple trick in an NPC's script - take off her helmet when not in combat, put it on when fighting starts. But I looked through the actions list and none seem to allow that. Or did I miss something?

FillSlot() can equip an item, but taking it off is complicated. If you have the exact item code then destroy/re-create should do the trick, but as a general routine - no luck.

Item code? Do you mean the filename? It's a particular helmet she wears, so I could supply that.

Then yes, DestroyItem("helmet") CreateItem("helmet",1,0,0).

Hm, I suppose it could work. Thanks.
