How To

Flatten a load order into one set of unique records

NOTE: If you are using SkyProc's starter program, this is already done for you. This tutorial is only for programmers starting a project from scratch.

// Import code

Mod merger = new Mod("MergerTmp.esp");
merger.addAsOverrides(SPGlobal.getDB());

This will merge all GRUPs from all Mods in the database into the patch. Conflicting records will be replaced by mods later in the list (exactly how it is done by Bethesda). What results is a temporary Mod object with a single "load order winner" version of each record in the database.

You can then access the records from merger to get the most "up-to-date" version of every record.
