'''Syntax'''
=='''Description'''==


Add a script package to the calling actor. This package takes precedence over all other packages until it is done. Note that unless the added package has some constraint on it ("must complete" and/or "must reach location"), it will be removed the next time the actor reevaluates his package.

==Notes==
* An actor can have only one script package at a time. When calling the function twice on the same actor, the second package replaces the first one added.

* This function does not work if the actor is currently running an interrupt package (e.g. dialogue). You may detect if the current package is an interrupt package by checking if the current package mod index is 255 (see [[GetSourceModIndex]]) or by comparing [[GetCurrentPackage]] (which returns an interrupt package) with [[GetCurrentEditorPackage]] (which will ignore interrupt packages and return the active package - the one that has been interrupted and will resume later). If they return different packages, the actor is running an interrupt package.
