With the help of this Java library Skyrim modders can create sophisticated data structures such as custom inventory systems, quest logs and dialogue trees.
JContainers
JContainers is a Windows modding utility for developing Skyrim extensions. It helps you generate hierarchical trees and graphs to store complex data relationships between individual items.
Available container types
Users can store frequently modified information like a quest log in dynamic containers. These objects automatically shrink or grow in size according to the current circumstances to optimize memory utilization. In turn, event driven containers are helpful for notifying other parts of your mod when certain values are changed.
A wide range of Skyrim mods such as Immersive College of Winterhold and Wyrmstooth is created with the help of JContainers.
Data management
It is possible to store information in a tree or graph hierarchical structure. Additionally, you are able to create map arrays and dynamic linked lists. There are tools for stacking and queueing external requests as well.
JContainers can automatically detect, sort and process various types of game data. It is designed to ensure that the mod will run smoothly even on a low end machine. Moreover, an option to develop custom containers to meet specific requirements is included.
