Did that, matt_w. Changed every reference, that is.
So look in the World tab. Is there one object for the pants or two?
What I’m saying is that it looks like you changed one of the references to “pair of pair of pants,” which is just reproducing the old problem–the object that the player is wearing is the “pair of pair of pants” and the rule is checking for the “pair of pants.”
No, matt-w, I did not do a universal replace. I did every replacement individually.
Draconis:
Is perhaps there another term for the World tab. Not seein’ it.
Dracnonis:
I found the World tab.

pair of pair of pants
… Hmmm, there is a “pair of pair of pants.” More investigation needed.
Your new transcript does show a “pair of pair of pants”. That did not come out of nowhere.
Check your code carefully. Somewhere you’ve got an item called “pair of pair of pants”, which is different from “pair of pants”, and as people have been saying, that’s probably the issue. Change that to “pair of pants”. Try again.
Hey, just for the heck of it, for testing purposes, you could change “pair of pants” to “pants”. Or “trousers”. Or “goobledikook”. As long as it’s all the same name. And if it’s being this much of a stumper, reducing it to a single noun might make it easier.
Success! I finally got the player dressed and out the door!
Thank you, intfiction gurus!
I don’t know if this applies, but you require the wallet to be “carried”.
If the wallet could be in a pants pocket or in a carried backpack, you’d want “enclosed by the player” so they don’t have to carry it in their hand the way I need to with my essential inventory on the way out the door in the morning.
Another useful adjective - carried or worn is called “held”.
