EndFunction

Parameters

• None

Return Value

• An array of base spell costs.

Notes

• This function was created while using none of the DLCs selected in the Creation Kit. Thus DLC spells were not included. Adding them is simple as increasing the number of elements and adding said DLC spell to that index.
• Use of this function requires an array of corresponding spells to be in the same order(and total number) so that the correct value is returned for the desired spell.
