Quite honestly I would like to see this article go away. As far as I can tell none of the code provided actually does what it is advertised to do. Since there is currently no way to delete PlaceAtMe objects, deleting the article seems more appropriate than updating it. [[User:Scruggs|Scruggs]] 23:40, 8 September 2008 (EDT)

Revision as of 22:40, 8 September 2008

About the placerRef.RemoveMe line in Example #1.... RemoveMe will only work if called from a script attached to the object targeted by the function. Using SomeReferenceID.RemoveMe from some other activator's script will not work. More over, for my own perception what is intended is not very clear (apart from the title of the article of course).

This article could use... a lot of work, honestly. This one and a couple of others, written about the same time by the same author, misuse PlaceAtMe dangerously, and really they ought to be cleaned up. If you're interested, that'd be great. Otherwise... not a lot that can be done until someone with the time and inclination fix it.
If you'd like to help but don't wish to rewrite it yourself for whatever reason, one thing that would help is if you marked it with the appropriate Article Tags. I haven't read this article in a long time, so I don't really know what tags apply.

Do you have a link for the info about tags? Maybe that I will do it one day if I have time, posting a proposal for change (a PFC?), but no promises... I first need to finish my mod (I still have issues posted on Bethesda forum). When all goes well, believe me I will have enough material to modify/correct many pages here.. ;). Take care, --HawkFest 12:21, 20 January 2008 (EST)
Uh... didn't I just post a link to the tags? That's a category with the different tags - if you click on any of the sub-categories listed there, you'll get a list of all the pages that have been tagged and information on how to add the tag to a page.
Does that answer your question?
Yes, and my apologies, I didn't notice the link, I guess I needed a nap... Thanks --HawkFest 19:37, 20 January 2008 (EST)
