How to save a tag that can added to any creature?

[weire]

My mod can add a tag to any creature by a weapon, but when reload game the tag will gone. How can I make it saved? Overwrite all creature's onSave is impratical. Or is there better way to mark a creature than tag?

Probably via making a custom component that saves/loads whatever data you wish.

thanks, I thought only prefab can save. since my mod work with talker I think I can try make talker save more data.

If I create a new component can I add the component after the prefab is init? like when I spell cast a creature, add a component to it.

turned out add new component cannot save, but overwrite talker component is good for me, thanks Baguettes.

Use debuffable/debuff component

You know, this flew over my head. Debuffs save between reloads, running their OnAttached fn... How did I not think of that?? Whew!
