DamageActorValue Command

AttributePlayerTarget
DamageActorValue
Actor ValueAmount
To target your character, use the command below:
player.DamageActorValue
Actor ValueAmount

This command will damage the specified attribute / actor value by the specified amount.

Argument Information

The syntax for this Starfield command is as follows:

Actor Value

The attribute or actor value to damage.

Amount
Type: Number

The amount of damage to deal to the attribute / actor value.

In-Depth Description

This command reduces the value of the chosen attribute by the specified amount. It simulates the effect of taking damage or suffering a debuff in a more temporary manner than modAV, and it's easier to reverse.

If you want to target a specific NPC or object, click on them with the mouse. For self-targeting, you can prepend the command with player.

Effects

The target's selected attribute will decrease by the given amount. This effect will "stack" on top of any other ongoing effects.

Despite being reduced, attributes damaged using DamageActorValue will still display in their standard color, rather than indicating a debuff.

Skills or attributes damaged this way can drop into negative values.

Tips

Use RestoreActorValue to revert the changes made by this command and restore the damaged value.

DamageActorValue can be useful in scenarios where you want a temporary debuff or effect without permanently changing a character's stats.
