I can’t get my NPC companion to auto-pickup anything. My character’s auto-pickup works fine, but the NPC will not auto-pickup anything when I turn it on through their dialogue (whether I whitelist an item or not). Is there something I’m missing? My goal is for them to grab their crossbow bolts after use.

It’s possible that I messed something up recently. I’ll poke at it sometime soon, see if I can fix it.
