USSEP adds properties LinkCustom09 and LinkCustom10 to lvlPredatorScript to replace Enable Parent functionality.
There are two problems:
1) USSEP doesn't fill these properties on DLC2LvlAnimalMountainSnowPredator [NPC_:0403A9C1] and DLC2LvlAnimalForestPredator [NPC_:0403A9C2]. There is no check in the script for whether these properties are filled or not:
ObjectReference EnableParent = GetLinkedRef(LinkCustom09)
ObjectReference InverseEnableParent = GetLinkedRef(LinkCustom10)
Therefore when they are not filled, it retrieves GetLinkedRef(None) for both, which will return ref linked with no keyword, like those XMarkers, and will proceed using it as Enable Parent.
2) The same problem can happen in mods that use lvlPredatorScript without these properties filled. An example is Beyond Skyrim - Bruma: CYRLvlAnimalForestPredator [NPC_:0B04933E], CYRLvlAnimalSwampPredator [NPC_:0B04933F], CYRLvlAnimalPlainsPredator [NPC_:0B049340].
Suggested fix:
in the script replace
ObjectReference EnableParent = GetLinkedRef(LinkCustom09)
ObjectReference InverseEnableParent = GetLinkedRef(LinkCustom10)
with
ObjectReference EnableParent = None
ObjectReference InverseEnableParent = None
if LinkCustom09
EnableParent = GetLinkedRef(LinkCustom09)
endif
if LinkCustom10
InverseEnableParent = GetLinkedRef(LinkCustom10)
endif
AND fill properties LinkCustom09 and LinkCustom10 on DLC2LvlAnimalMountainSnowPredator [NPC_:0403A9C1] and DLC2LvlAnimalForestPredator [NPC_:0403A9C2].
