Notes

• Use of this function causes this actor (and all other actors in any current running scene in the quest) to re-evaluate their packages. Calling this multiple times in a row can result in actors in running scenes to lose their scene package permanently and result in brokenness. Do not call this multiple times in a row while a scene is running in the quest whose alias you are forcing to.
• This function does not allow you to clear an alias by forcing it to None. Instead, use the Clear method.
