=== Issues with optional function arguments === | |||
:''Source:'' [http://www.gamesas.com/papyrus-functions-with-optional-arguments-t334901.html '''gamesas:''' Papyrus functions with optional arguments] | |||
When you compile a function with optional script arguments, the argument data is updated for the containing script only. If other scripts make cross-script calls to your function, those functions must be recompiled in order for their calls to work properly. Otherwise... | |||
* If you just added the optional arguments, the other scripts will be unaware of them unless recompiled; you will receive Papyrus errors whining about an "incorrect number of arguments passed." | |||
* If you changed the optional arguments' default values, the other scripts will use the old default values until recompiled. | |||
