addloot on spawn?

[Templus]

this doesn't seem to work:

sub EVENT_SPAWN{
$npc->addloot(119811);
}

i put it into "test.pl" in my zone and #reloadquest and then do #spawn test 1 1 1 1 1 1

but there's no loot on test's corpse...

I've also tried just "addloot" instead of "$npc->addloot" no dice .. as well as both of those variations with addloot(119811,1) no dice

I'm just a myriad of errors aren't i :(

Thanks in advance

EDIT: i can't even get a simple hail function working with my test NPC .. i guess I can't use quests with npcs that I spawn with GM commands? or something? i don't even know :(
