of its cell name. Again, this not exactly "any" part of it's name, it has to
be the first part of it's name... Chorrol will match Chorrol, Chorrol01, ChorrolFarm, etc.  but using "Farm" would result in never finding ChorrolFarm.  


'''Notes:'''
'''Note:''' In previous Elder Scrolls games, this condition matched the beginning of the name. Checking <code>GetInCell Chorrol</code> would match "Chorrol", "Chorrol01", "ChorrolFarm", etc. Skyrim's version of this function '''DOES NOT''' work this way. The cell must be an ''exact'' match. This mechanism has been replaced with the location hierarchy and the [[GetInCurrentLoc]] and [[GetInCurrentLocAlias]] condition functions.
*The CellName has to be a valid [[Interior_cells|interior cell]] name. [[Exterior cells]] will not work. In some cases, it is necessary to create a "dummy" interior cell (e.g. Chorrol) in order to use GetInCell for a set of related interior and exterior cells (e.g. all the ChorrolXXX cells).

Syntax:

 [ActorID.]GetInCell CellName

Example:

 GetInCell Chorrol 

Returns true if the actor's current cell is the specified cell.

Note: In previous Elder Scrolls games, this condition matched the beginning of the name. Checking GetInCell Chorrol would match "Chorrol", "Chorrol01", "ChorrolFarm", etc. Skyrim's version of this function DOES NOT work this way. The cell must be an exact match. This mechanism has been replaced with the location hierarchy and the GetInCurrentLoc and GetInCurrentLocAlias condition functions.
