UnknownStatistic class

The UnknownStatistic exception class describes an exception associated with finding a string identifier that is not a valid or not an appropriate Model 204 statistic name.

To produce an UnknownStatistic exception for yourself, you typically use a User Language Throw statement with the New UnknownStatistic constructor. For example, the following statement throws an UnknownStatistic exception for the value ABCD:

throw %(unknownStatistic):new(Name='abcd')

In addition to the New constructor that creates an object instance, the class includes a Name property that returns the invalid statistic name.

The UnknownStatistic class is available as of Sirius Mods version 7.3.
