Before I start my post, I'd just like to say I've tried looking around the forums for an answer to my question, since I KNOW people have solved it, and it could be on here... But I didn't find it, so here I am, bugging you with the following question.

I've made a little house mod for myself, nothing fancy, but I keep running into this little snag. My Pristine vending machine is busted... It's the standard bug I've seen quie a few posts about, namely the script takes my nukas, but doesn't add any ice cold ones to my vending machine... I've looked over the scripts for it, and I mostly get how they work, since I have some programming experience (c++ mainly), but I do not see what is going wrong with it.

As I stated above, I know others have had this problem, and have fixed it, but nowhere have I found a description of how exactly they did it... So, if anyone could help me, or point me in the right direction, I would be much obliged

I guess you just copied one of the default player machines?

end

Note how these scripts make reference to "HD01NukaMachineRef" and "HD02NukaMachineRef". Your Nuka Vending machine needs to be similar. Just make a copy one of the vending machine objects (in the object window) and give it a script that works with your machine's reference ID.

all you have to do is give the nukamachine a refname in the id after you placed it in the house.

fill in where now stands hd01nukamachineref your ref name in the script.

this is to let the script connect to your nuka machine.

if this isn't working then pm me, i got two houses with nukamacines in it both working perfectly.

these lines don't have to be there actually.
