GetEffectiveArmorAR

A User Function for use with Oblivion Script Extender

Syntax:

(effectiveArmorAR:short) reference.Call GetEffectiveArmorAR Armor:ref CurrentHealth:float

Returns the effective armor rating, adjusted by the effective skill of the calling actor.

Notes

• This function must be called on a reference (Ref.call <function>)
• CurrentHealth is the value returned by GetCurrentHealth and/or GetEquippedCurrentHealth. If you want the armor rating of an undamaged armor, just use 1 as the second parameter.
• This function requires the User Function GetEffectiveSkill
• If the ref passed as the first argument is not an armor, or this function is not called on a NPC reference, this function returns -1.
