On the notes, were the actors in the same cell as the player?

- No, I added the test actors to a random house interior I had never been to and traveled there with coc. OnAdd blocks simply won't execute for items placed into NPC inventories when they initially spawn (or their inventory is regenerated via SetLevel or ResetInventory), or added as death items. It is most unfortunate behavior indeed. =(
- I am going to play around more when I am home to see if I can use a gamemode script with a timer to add an item shortly after the actor spawns using AddItem (which will trigger the OnAdd block). My previous experiments with this showed that a gamemode block on an item script calling additem on its container would freeze the game, but it may be because the item I was adding also called RemoveMe in its OnAdd block. I hope to find a workaround for this.

- For the note that I added, about the Death Items, they were. I tried it with and without the player killing them, and it seems to be true for regular Death Items and for those added via perks like Contract Killer.
It's not all bad, you can use it to tell when the item is first removed from its container.

- For the note that I added, about the Death Items, they were. I tried it with and without the player killing them, and it seems to be true for regular Death Items and for those added via perks like Contract Killer.
