floatfunctionTryToGetValue(ActorValueakAV)

Description

Wiki Description

This is a convenient way to get the actor value of an actor in an alias without calling ReferenceAlias.GetActorReference() on it. It's mostly useful in cases where you have lots of aliases that may or may not be filled and you want to call ObjectReference.SetValue(...) on them without having to test for an actor being present first.

Caveats

CK Wiki - Notes

Even though GetValue works on references, this function only works with actors, and so will fail and return 0 if the alias contains a reference, but not an actor.

Parameters

ActorValueakAV
CK Wiki Description

Examples
