Good to know. [[MoveTo]] with a persistant reference has another benefit, too - it can tell if the player has changed cells by using [[GetInSameCell]].

:::::: Using MoveTo is exactly what I do, and recommand to people patient enough to listen. Most of the time, you can do with MoveTo everything you do with PlaceAtMe, even if it is trickier for complex spell effects.
:::::: I have restarted the game about seven time, each time loading new zones and saving again, without any weight loss. I have about 100 Kb of placeatme'd disabled references in my save, btw...
:::::: I think someone should edit this article http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Casting_Spells_From_An_Activator ,since it uses placeatme, and I am under the impression many people learned how to script spells from this very page, hence the prominence of the use of placeatme in spell effects... I'm a little too fed up with this specific issue to make it right now, having spent my whole day on it, so... If noone else wants to do it, I'll do it tomorrow anyway. Good day/night, depending on the country you're from... [[User:Gamall|Gamall]] 17:17, 18 July 2006 (EDT)
