::::Now, back to you example: the dropped weapon may be moved to any NPC inventory with “xItem.Activate xNPC 1” and the Reference Record should be destroyed. But there is little you can do about the Base Records created by CreateFullActorCopy. The most effective technique to prevent this bloating is by reusing the Actor/Items (instead of a create-destroy cycle), which requires a rather complex scripting (worth an WIKI article, btw).

Ah, thanks for that, I was confusing the issue, I just realised that I don't have to worry about new base records for their inventories ''(and in part, I was already doing that in fact)'' as I can add them to the FullActorCopy as I see fit when I summon them. You'd think that complications such as these would warrant a patch from Bethesda. PlaceAtMe does not create new base records? So CreateFullActorCopy is in fact a much more malicious function?<BR>
