Detecting actor's origin

Post » Sun Jan 02, 2011 2:34 pm

Is there a way to detect whether an actor was hand-placed in the CS or was randomly generated from a levelled list?

I believe that anything generated in-game will have an FF prefix on its formid. So spawned creatures should be like that, and placed ones have a lesser number matching the esp. I think you'll need to use OBSE's GetFormIDString to do anything with it.

Doh! Of course!
I already use this method in my clean-up mod!
Thanks ghastley!
