Papyrus Array Question

[Feliks]

I've been scripting a lot lately and I noticed that the entire thing I'm building right now is predicated on a fact that I am taking for granted. If I'm applying an effect to the player or an NPC and I'm using data stored in an array to do so, will the array store its data when the player saves and quits the game? or loads for that matter? Or do I need to find a way to save the data independent of the array to reaccess it when the game is quit and started back up?

I'm pretty sure they're stored, but you could always test that with an FF spell that uses a 10-second Script MagicEffect (you save immediately asfter casting it), where the script is just:

int[] myIntArray

Event OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)
myIntArray = new int[3]
myIntArray[0] = 0
myIntArray[1] = 1
myIntArray[2] = 2
endEvent

Event OnEffectFinish(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)
if myIntArray[0] + myIntArray[1] + myIntArray[2] == 3
Debug.Notification("My mod's gonna be awesome!!")
else
Debug.Notification("I'm screwed...")
endif
endEvent
