[[User:GuidoBot|GuidoBot]] 04:51, 12 October 2006 (EDT): I was trying to use SetAV in the way described on the WIKI. From a script '''player.SetAV X''' actually actually performs the equivalent to '''player.ModBaseAV X'''. That is X if +ve. If X is -ve then the result is equivalent to '''player.SetBaseAV 65536-X''' (i.e. the result is > 65536)! I also tried using a variable that was an int rather than a short for the -ve value. No difference. I also tried setting the value to 65536+X (X<0) and this gave the exactly same value (i.e. as X>0)! Very strange behavior. Not only that but my base health value also got changed by +256. There's definitely some kind of memory overwriting going on here. I'm sending this to you since I'm modding and it is best that someone else confirm this wierd behavior and a note added to the Wiki that SetAV doesn't do what is expected. We should probably confirm the scripting us too. | |||

It actually seems to me that SetActorValue really acts as a ModBaseActorValue function. It doesn't seem to set the base actor value, but rather it seems to just modify it. SBKing
- No, it definately sets it. ("Set" as in setting to a certain value as opposed to "modify" (adding a certain value to the current value) Note that the Actor Value Functions work differently in the console than they do in scripts.--JOG 09:52, 14 June 2006 (EDT)
SetActorValue does not seem to let you set (at least certain stats) below 0. So far I have only tested with strength. For instance SetActorValue Strength -1000 was returning 24?! ForceActorValue and ModActorValue however both seem to let you set this stat to negative values.
