Removes ''count'' number of the specified item from the calling object's inventory.
==Notes==
* Suffers from the same stability limitations as [[RemoveMe]]. Using RemoveItem immediately after the object has been added will often result in a crash. To prevent this, wait more than one frame before you remove the item.


* You can use a [[Variable_types:_reference_variables|reference variable]] as ''ObjectID'' and a [[Variable_types:_shortint|short]] variable for ''count''.


If ObjectID is a leveled list, the leveled item generated from the leveled list will be removed.
* If ObjectID is a leveled list, the leveled item generated from the leveled list will be removed.


* See [[Message Spam]] for techniques to avoid unwanted "Item Removed" messages.


* RemoveItem is not always reliable when removing multiple items at once. See [[Common_Bugs#Remove_Item|Troubleshooting: Common Bugs]].


==Inventory Updating==
When you remove an item while the player's inventory menu ([[MenuMode]] 1002) is open, the item will remain visible even though it's really not there. To refresh the menu after removing the item, use
<pre>player.AddItem YourMiscItem 1
player.EquipItem YourMiscItem
player.UnEquipItem YourMiscItem
player.RemoveItem YourMiscItem 1</pre>
However, if the menu has been hidden with '''con_ToggleMenus''' (either via script or console) this will not work.


When you remove a large number of unique items from the player while their inventory menu is open, there may be some lag. You can prevent this with OBSE's [[con_ToggleMenus]] by placing it on both sides of the remove lines:
<pre>con_ToggleMenus
player.RemoveItem SomeItem001 1
...
player.RemoveItem SomeItem100 1
con_ToggleMenus
;Refresh the menu
player.AddItem YourMiscItem 1
player.EquipItem YourMiscItem
player.UnEquipItem YourMiscItem
player.RemoveItem YourMiscItem 1</pre>
