*This function will cause the initiating actor to be stuck in combat alert status and unable to come out of it, no matter what combat based functions is called. To fix this, the package running must have the Weapon drawn flag checked. When checked, the alert status is back to normal when the package ends.

*A weapon needs to be equipped before an idle that normally requires a weapon is played. If you don't have a weapon equipped, the idle will still play, but you will not be able to equip spells/weapons after the idle is complete. You will have to reload. This is similar to the issue above, except you don't need to have the weapon drawn in this case.

*[[DrawWeapon - Actor]] will prevent this function from firing if one decides to use it to handle the issue above.
*[[DrawWeapon - Actor|DrawWeapon]] will prevent this function from firing if one decides to use it to handle the issue above.
*The [[PushActorAway - ObjectReference|PushActorAway]] function can interfere with idles. For example, if a weapon has a scripted effect to push an actor away on strike and that weapon is used in a kill move played with PlayIdleWithTarget, the targeted actor may fall from the kill move, get up, and then fall again several seconds later. This behavior can occur even if the targeted actor has been decapitated.
