Editing Delete - ObjectReference (section)

== Notes ==
* Delete is valid for unique actors only. Please waive from using it on respwning/leveled actors. It will destroy spawn points as you will not delete the spawned actor, but the leveled instance marker. Please use code similar to this to prevent respawn destruction.

* Remember that Delete() only flags an object for deletion; the actual deletion takes place later. Per [http://www.afkmods.com/index.php?/topic/3781-the-critter-thread/page-2#entry149444 this USKP discussion], if a variable still points to the object, the object will remain temporarily persistent; the deletion won't occur until that variable is cleared (i.e. by setting it to None).
