Examples[edit | edit source]

   ;...
   ActorBase banditBase = SomeBandit.GetActorBase()
   Form csForm = banditBase.GetCombatStyle() as Form
   CombatStyle newCS = csForm.TempClone() as CombatStyle
   newCS.SetMeleeMult(0.1) ;reduce preference for melee attacks
   newCS.SetMagicMult(2.5) ;increase preference for magic attacks
   banditBase.SetCombatStyle(newCS)
   ;...

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • The clone will only exist for the current play session. Attempting to store the cloned Form in a variable for longer periods of time will not work, and may lead to game instability when your script attempts to access the form after a game reload.
  • This does not work on all types - you may get back a valid form with initialized default data rather than data copied from the source.
  • TempClone does work for cloning CombatStyle Forms.
