Other Important Questions
Q: Is this compatible with AE/SE/VR?
A: It is compatible and tested with SE(1. 5. 97), AE (1. 6. 640. 0) has been tested, but not by me nor with the most recent versions. Other versions of AE have not been tested yet but are aimed to be compatible. Currently, VR is not compatible, but compatibility with as many versions as possible is on my list so never fear.
Q: What about skills?
A: Implementing skills is atop my current list of things I'd love to do for this project. Currently however, I'd like to improve the code, build on the API, and quarter away any bugs before I plan on any expansion.
Q: Does it really work with all console commands and script functions?
A: You got me, there's some it doesn't quite work with. SKSE functions and the GetActorValueInfo console command won't work as well as intended, as they have their own ways of turning strings into an Actor Value. Currently its unpreventable, but most other common functions (GetActorValue, DamageActorValue, etc) should still all work fine.
Additionally, it's worth noting that not all condition functions work with these aliases. Currently, procedure conditions on packages, conditions on sound forms, and quest alias conditions cannot use any aliased values. Plan to hunt those down but they may take a bit of time.
