Description

This is a simple quest script to be placed in the OnClose event of a placeable. Players will need to collect 3 different items, and place them inside the placeable for a NPC to spawn in at a designated waypoint (complete with visual effect). The 3 items will then be destroyed. If player tries to place anything else inside, or less than the 3 needed items, then the placeable will speak a message saying the 3 items they need. The script has been detailed accordingly for additions, edits, and what not so please feel free to add what you will. Comments appreciated, especially if people wish to see more coming.

Looks good. I'll use it in my upcoming mods, if you don't mind.

Thanks,
Hugie

Only thing that ever confuses me about this is when to use item tags vs ResRef. This one uses the item Tag. Easy to inderstand and works great.
