DumpPapyrusPersistenceInfo

Dumps everything in Papyrus that is keeping the reference persistent to the script log. (Logging must be enabled - logging is turned off by default) You can also pass in a form or input enable layer ID instead to get persistence information on those as well.

Syntax

Select the object in the window while the console is down, or PRID the object. Then:

DumpPapyrusPersistenceInfo
DPPI

If you want information on a non-reference:

DumpPapyrusPersistenceInfo form
DPPI form

If you want information on a form that the game doesn't have loaded:

DumpPapyrusPersistenceInfo "RAW:<formID>"
DPPI "RAW:<formID>"

Or if you want information on an input event layer (get the ID from the DIEL command):

DumpPapyrusPersistenceInfo "IEL:<id>"
DPPI "IEL:<id>"

Parameters

If called on a reference, no parameters are needed

For non-reference information:

• Form: The form to get persistence information for (by name or form ID)

For non-loaded forms:

• FormID: The form ID of the unloaded form to look up

For input event layers:

• ID: The input event layer ID (see the DIEL command)

Examples

PrestonGarveyRef.DPPI

Dumps everything keeping PrestonGarveyRef persistent.

DPPI MQ101

Dumps everything keeping MQ101 persistent (non-refs can't really be persistent, but this will tell you everything pointing at it)

DPPI "RAW:000A1F01"

Dumps everything trying to keep form 000A1F01 persistent. (For cases where something is unloaded because it can't be persisted, like scenes)

DPPI "IEL:0"

Dumps everything keeping input enable layer 0 around.

Notes

Other things besides Papyrus can keep references persistent, so this should be used in addition to other console commands to determine why a form is persistent. If Papyrus is keeping a reference persistent, it will be shown in-game as the "PapyrusPersistenceForm".
