Line 205:

Both the old and new AI distinguish between the two:

* {{co|slateblue|Old AI}} - Attribute {{co|slateblue|97}} (energyNeutralizerAmount) shows neutralization amount and {{co|slateblue|90}} (powerTransferAmount) shows nosferatu amount.

* {{co|slateblue|Old AI}} - Attribute {{co|slateblue|97}} (''energyNeutralizerAmount'') shows neutralization amount and {{co|slateblue|90}} (''powerTransferAmount'') shows nosferatu amount.

* {{co|violet|New AI}} - The behavior-attribute series in {{co|violet|2519 - 2522}} (behaviorEnergyNeutralizationX) means neutralizing and in {{co|violet|2629 - 2632}} (behaviorEnergyNosferatuX) means nosferatu.

* {{co|violet|New AI}} - The '''behavior'''-attribute series in {{co|violet|2519 - 2522}} (''behaviorEnergyNeutralizationX'') means neutralizing and in {{co|violet|2629 - 2632}} (''behaviorEnergyNosferatuX'') means nosferatu.

==== Consolidation and sanity checks ====

So far there doesn't seem to be an overlap of identical types of data between the old and new AI, so you can use things like coalesce in sql, or similar functions, because they will never both be set to non-null values for a single entity. In some cases, you do a triple check by picking either the old or either of the two new and exclusive attributes.

None of them seem to utilize attribute {{co|slateblue|2451}} (''energyNeutralizerSignatureResolution'') for signature checks, so it doesn't seem NPCs adhere to the same rules of relative size and signature resolution as players do. There are also entities with too few attributes, like the '''Blood Clone Soldier Trainer''' that only has the attribute {{co|slateblue|90}} but no other attributes so it cannot actually nos you.

~~Currently there are no NPCs with both attributeID~~ {{co|slateblue|90}} ~~and~~ {{co|slateblue|97}} ~~set~~ (~~just~~ one or ~~the other~~)~~, so it~~'~~s safe to assume that it~~'~~s an~~ either or ~~kind of check~~. ~~They either simulate~~ '''~~Energy Neutralizers~~''' or '''~~Energy Nosferatu~~'''.

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization optimal range}} is either attribute {{co|slateblue|98}} (old) or one of {{co|violet|2520}} or {{co|violet|2632}} (new).

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization falloff range}} is either attribute {{co|slateblue|2452}} (old) or one of {{co|violet|2521}} or {{co|violet|2631}} (new) but can also be '''null'''.

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization amount}} is either {{co|slateblue|97}} (''energy neutralization'') or {{co|slateblue|90}} (''energy nosferatu'').

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization signature}} is attribute {{co|slateblue|2451}} (old) but can also be '''null'''.

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization duration}} is either attribute {{co|slateblue|942}} (old) or one of {{co|violet|2519}} or {{co|violet|2630}} (new).

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization chance}} is attribute {{co|slateblue|931}} (old) and '''null''' should be treated as 1 (100% chance) if they otherwise have at least {{co|lightgreen|amount}}, {{co|lightgreen|optimal range}} and {{co|lightgreen|duration}} values.

* {{co|lightgreen|Energy neutralization discharge}} is either {{co|violet|2522}} or {{co|violet|2629}} (new) but will be {{co|slateblue|null}} for old AI (doesn't simulate cap usage).

~~==== Consolidation~~ and ~~sanity checks ====~~

If you're writing a function or script to check for energy neutralization capabilities, it's best to double-check that you have entries for {{co|lightgreen|energy neutralization amount}}, {{co|lightgreen|optimal range}} and {{co|lightgreen|duration}} (they should all have at least those three entries if they actually have neuting capabilities), then if they do also adjust the {{co|lightgreen|energy neutralization chance}} to 1 if it's null and finally check to see if it's an '''energy neutralizer''' or an '''energy nosferatu'''. The existence of {{co|lightgreen|energy neutralization falloff range}}, {{co|lightgreen|signature}} and {{co|lightgreen|discharge}} will then vary.
