Information
The bug:
-
[]When AddItem() or RemoveItem() are called on NPCs such as settlers, they will default to the Default Outfit set in their record. You can see this in action by giving Sturges a dress and then calling one of those functions on him. He will just return back to his old ugly rags.[/]
Requirements
Mandatory:
-
[]Fallout 4 Script Extender[/]
[]Address Library for F4SE Plugins[/]
[]Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019[/]
