Furthermore, ''for the player only'', this modifier is recalculated every time the game is reloaded, apparently to guarantee that it's not affected by spells and equipment that are no longer active.

* These formulas do not apply to '''Fame,Infamy,Bounty,or Encumbrance'''.  These AVs are calculated differently, and stored differently as well.

* When player stats are displayed in the menu, they are shown as <font color="Green">green</font> if the Current value is greater than the Calculated Base value, <font color="Red">red</font> if the Current value is less than the CBV, and <font color="Blue">blue</font> if the two are equal.

* For ''recoverable'' effects from ''abilities'' on the ''player'' (and only the player), the base modifier is changed instead of the max modifier.  This is why benefits from birthsigns and certain quest rewards (like the Skeleton Key) can grant skill mastery perks.

* There is a bug in the code for NPCs and creatures that allows the Damage modifier to be made positive if the ''current'' value of the modifier is zero.  This means that e.g. casting a Restore Health spell on an NPC who is already at full health will actually add to their max health. However, any further change to the Damage modifier, including taking damage or casting the spell a second time will trigger the non-bugged code and force the Damage modifier to be <= zero.
=== Encumbrance ===
Encumbrance is calculated and displayed differently from other actor values.
* The '''Base''' factor is ignored entirely.  It is not used in calculation, and cannot be altered by the SetAV command or any magical means.  It is, however, still included in the return value of the GetBaseAV command, making this command effectively useless.
* The '''Calculated Base''' is the total encumbrance bonus from strength.  Unlike most calculated factors, this applies to ''all'' actors, not just the player.
* Maximum encumbrance and current encumbrance are calculated differently:
Modifier Sum = (Max Modifier + Script Modifier + Damage Modifier)
Maximum Encumbrance = Calculated Base ( - Modifier Sum, if Modifier Sum < 0)
  Current Encumbrance = Carried Weight ( + Modifier Sum, if Modifier Sum > 0)
:This means that the current encumbrance of an actor will never be less than their :total carried weight, and the maximum encumbrance will never be less than the value :calculated from their strength.
* However, the GetAV command still returns the encumbrance as it would be calculated from the default formula, e.g. the sum of all four parts.  This means that GetAV will return the '''wrong''' value if the actor has enough effects that reduce encumbrance (e.g. Feather).
