Description

Returns TRUE if the PC possesses the rescue plot ring, which is retrieved with the function GetPlotRingTag(); Returns FALSE in all other cases, including errors.

Remarks

Found in nw_j_rescue.nss on line 202

Though by looking at it, you would assume it uses oPC as the object to check for the ring, it actually doesn’t use oPC for anything – instead, it checks for the ring on the PC speaker, meaning that this function can only be used in conversations, otherwise it will always return FALSE. Small loss, as it is of little value for general scripting purposes, seeing as it is part of Bioware’s system for giving quests and rewards. It might be good to learn from, though.
