A function added by the JIP NVSE Plugin.

Description

Generates a unique identifier string for a reference/object. The result string is intended to be used as a key in StringMap-type arrays. This makes up for the inability to use references as keys in arrays.

Syntax

[help]
(string_var) reference.RefToString anyForm:ref

Example

let arrVar[objRef.RefToString] := Caps001
let refVar := arrVar[objRef.RefToString]
let strVar := objRef.RefToString
let intVar := arrVar[strVar]

Notes

  • The generated string identifier is load-order-independent, and remains valid even if the load order has changed.
