GemList.AddForm(Diamond)Notes
- Code analysis indicates that new forms are appended to a block at the start of the list. This is almost the same as adding them to the start of the list. If the Creation Kit defines a FormList with elements A and B, and you add elements C, D, and E in that order, then the expected list order based on disassembly of the executable would be C D E A B.
- FormLists cannot contain duplicate entries. Using AddForm(...) with a form that is already in the list will not add a second copy to the list.
- A created reference does not become persistent by virtue of being added to a FormList. If you try to retrieve the reference from the FormList when it is not loaded and not persistent, you will get an incorrect result or no result.
