This patch provides various methods for workarounds to handle story bugs in game mods. It is especially useful to introduce workarounds to common story bugs in mods (e.g. close a dead quest, reset a dialog that was spoken too early, change the value of a variable, etc.). Until the mod team can provide a fix, this patch is a great temporary solution for critical bugs.

In itself, this patch does not perform any action. Only in case of problems with a mod, the patch becomes useful. Even then, the problem may only be fixed with clear instructions from the mod developers for a temporary solution.

The patch essentially allows to call any script function from the console. Along-side a few helper functions.

• Close quests
• Mark dialogs as told/untold
• Display or modify the contents of variables/constants
• Call any script function
