1011 1011  * If there are new script files or new cue nodes (i.e. scripts/cues with new names) they are created and added properly. If you remove script files or cue nodes, the corresponding scripts/cues are removed from the game, including instances.
1012 -** (!) Pitfall: It is recommended that cues are not removed if they were previously released in public builds, to prevent future cues with the same name leading to errors (see example below). Instead they can be emptied and marked as deprecated.

1013 1013  * As a consequence, you CANNOT rename scripts or cues if you want to refresh them. Doing so would remove the old script or cue and add a new one with the new name.

1015 1015  * You CANNOT add, remove, or change the "ref" attribute of a cue. But it is possible to remove the whole cue. (If all references to a library are removed you can also remove the library itself.)
