And the idea isn't that SetEssential works on references - it's that CreateFullActorCopy creates a new object, not a new reference.

::::If SetEssential is a return, it won't matter here, since no code needs to run after SetEssential runs (the disable will run on the next frame). I hope that clears things up?

Dragoon Wraith TALK 22:27, 15 August 2006 (EDT): About your request for SetRefEssential for OBSE: Couldn't you use CreateFullActorCopy and SetEssential to create an essential version of an actor which is referenced repeatedly?

Tibixe 04:49, 16 August 2006 (EDT)

My problem was to make an Actor Copy essential. But setessential acts like a return function when it is used with a reference variable. (That caused my mod to create a new actor every frame...) I also added an entry to SetEssential, but marked it as minor edit (I thought a line is a minor edited, now I know it isn't).

Dragoon Wraith TALK 10:17, 16 August 2006 (EDT): Twas a good edit, don't worry. Anyway, it being a return statement isn't a problem, you know. I'd do something like this:
if ( GetDisabled == 0 )
  set copy to CreateFullActorCopy
  copy.SetEssential
  Disable  ;disable the original
endif
If you'd like, you could post your code and I'll see what's up with it.
For now, though, I'm going to take SetRefEssential off the Wish List.

Not that it also act like a return statement, it acts exactly like it and does nothing else than stops the script for the current frame.
Reference.SetEssential really works? I must try it... I am going to make a scroll with your code, test it on an NPC, and see what happens... I bet it will duplicate forever (if it compiles)
Tibixe 10:46, 16 August 2006 (EDT): I displays an error message:
Line 8,(the setessential is here)
Missing parameter ActorBase. 
Just as I expected. I think we need that SetRefEssential :) I've got an image of the script and the error message, if you think I made a mistake...
Dragoon Wraith TALK 12:19, 16 August 2006 (EDT): Ohhh... I misread that. Sorry. I didn't realize that it wasn't doing what it was supposed to. That needs more investigation, then. Does SetEssential ever work?
