📋 About This Mod

When placed anywhere in load order (doesn't matter where) it will generate a file on launching the game C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Script Extender\InheritanceTree.txt

It will account for modded entries as well.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you start an honor or honor ruleset save, the code will run again but this time with a bunch of self inheritances and it will overwrite the traditional inheritances. As of 1. 2 the code will now generate a new set of inheritances and compare them against the original to see what changes, and then add the changes to the original, showing a ⟳ icon to indicate a change to self inheritance, as well as placing a at the bottom to see which entries changed inheritance to something not theirself.

Example output:

CL_Instruments_Doot

├─ CL_ARM_Instrument_Doot_Drum

├─ CL_ARM_Instrument_Doot_Flute

├─ CL_ARM_Instrument_Doot_Lute

├─ CL_ARM_Instrument_Doot_Lyre

└─ CL_ARM_Instrument_Doot_Violin

_Armor_Magic

ABERRANT_SHAPE

ABILITYSCORE_DEATH

ABJURE_ENEMY_SLOW

ABSORB_ELEMENTS_ACTIVE

├─ MAG_ACID_NOXIOUS_FUMES
