Is there such thing as "locking" an item to an equipment slot, or would I have to use some plotscripting wizardry?

Like ... an ongoing script that keeps checking to see if TAG "Thing is equipped" ever turns off?

Hey that's a point, there's a command to check if a menu is open, but no command (that I can clearly see in the plotscripting dictionary) to check if the menu has been closed, is there one? Cause if that was the case it'd go something like:

I posted in another thread about wrapping the equip menu in a script. I would suggest that rather than an each-step or on-keypress script.

The only catch is that you would need to use the latest nightly build, since just a couple days ago I fixed a bug where equipment tags were being enforced when the main menu closed, instead of when the equipment menu closed.

I found your previous post -

Would the wrapper just re-equip the item if the user unequips it?
Ok, that's work-able.
I guess I could throw in a text box which informs the player what happened.
