Skyrim Mod:Mod File Format/INGR

Internally, all alchemy items (food, drinks, potions, and poisons), enchantments, ingredients, scrolls and spells derive from the same object, MagicItem, and thus share a similar structure.

Auto-calc: The auto-calculated ingredient value is the total of all effect costs. This is different from the gold value, which is found in the DATA field.
