CK Wiki - Notes

Quests do not have to be running to be collected.

This can be a good alternative to using Game.GetFormFromFile(...) to return quests, or to check for a certain plugin to be present, as authors rarely change editor ids.

Parameters

stringeditorId

Examples

;Check for a Dragonborn quest and implicitly cast the quest return to a boolean (None = False)
bool isDLC2Present = Quest.GetQuest("DLC2CultistAmbush")
    
If isDLC2Present
    ;Perform Logic dependent on Dragonborn being present.
Else ;If it is not installed only one other possibility. 
    Debug.Trace("Dragonborn.esm was not present.")
EndIf;Check for a Dragonborn quest and implicitly cast the quest return to a boolean (None = False)
bool isDLC2Present = Quest.GetQuest("DLC2CultistAmbush")
    
If isDLC2Present
    ;Perform Logic dependent on Dragonborn being present.
