Global variables removed in API Version 100020?

solvaring

So I'm looking at the 100019 ESOUIDocumentation.txt and comparing it to the 100020 version and the first thing i notice is that there are sections present in the previous version that are no longer present in the newest version.

h5. AchievementRewardType is gone
h5. ArmorDamageStyle is gone

I found those by manually comparing each section with find in np++, copying and pasting a section name present in the 100019 version into the find tool, then jumping over to the 100020 version and then initiating a search until it got too tedious, but i'm sure there could be more sections missing besides just these 2. I'll probably have to end up writing a regex to compare each version of the file to completely satisfy my questions.

I only started writing addons with version 100019 so im not sure how common this is to see with an update to the API. Could it be possible that since the ESOUIDocumentation.txt is a dump file provided by ZOS and is already an incomplete representation of the entire API, that those variables are still present and they just didnt make it in this time?

I really want to know because it's important for my upkeep of my autocomplete plugin for Zerobrane Studio. I don't want to update my plugin based on this latest dump file and end up removing autocomplete entries that are still present in the game.

Unused functions and constants are commonly removed from the API. Sometimes this causes problems with addons that still uses them which is why some old addons no longer work.
