IsOffLimits - ObjectReference

SKSE Member of: ObjectReference Script

This Papyrus function provides access to one of the internal game engine functions that Skyrim's UI uses to determine whether interacting with some object may be a crime. It's one of the functions that the game engine calls when it wants to know whether to override an object's activation prompt with "Steal" or "Steal from," for example.

Syntax

Bool Function IsOffLimits() Native

Examples

ObjectReference ErikursBooze boozeRef  Auto  

Function takeButDontSteal()
	If !boozeRef.IsOffLimits()
		boozeRef.Activate(playerRef) ; takes it
	EndIf
EndFunction

Notes

• This function will always return false for any furniture that is not a bed.
• This function runs special-case checks for doors. As of this writing, these checks have not been reverse-engineered in detail, but may include things like ownership checks for the cell that the door leads to.
• In all other cases, this function runs typical ownership checks, which include things like "is this object owned by a Faction that the player is a member of, with the player's faction rank high enough to grant ownership?"
• This function is coded to run special-case checks when called on an actor while the player is sneaking. However, these checks are exactly identical to the normal checks run for most objects.
