Papyrus: InstanceNamingRules

The Instance Naming Rules object is found within the Object Window under the Miscellaneous Category. Instance Naming Rules determine the name of a single naming instance of one of four target types when an Object Mod is applied to that target type.

Editor Dialog

• ID: The ID, also referred to as Editor ID, is used by the Creation Kit to uniquely identify this record within a Data File.
• Left Panel: A collection containing instance naming rules. Corresponds to the name of an Object Mod. For example: Braced. Determines the order of crafting recipes listed in the crafting benches if priority is not assigned on the Constructible Object for the Object Mod.
• Target Type: The type of object these instance naming rules may apply to. This corresponds to the target type of the Object Mod the rule is applying to.
  • NONE:
  • Actor: Naming rules may apply to Actor objects.
  • Armor: Naming rules may apply to Armor objects.
  • Furniture: Naming rules may apply to Furniture objects.
  • Weapon: Naming rules may apply to Weapon objects.
• Ruleset Number: The order in which the Left Panel is used by a single instance of an object.
• Index: Assigns priority to the Left Panel rules if there are more than one set rules on a Ruleset Number. DLCs use different indices than vanilla, modders may wish to do the same.
• Move: Allows the user to change the priority of the Left Panel.
• Text: The name of the instance of a single object. For example: VATS Enhanced
• Keywords: A list of Keywords that signal information to other Game Systems. These keywords are used to determine the name of the single instance of an object with associated keywords on an Object Mod.
