Otherwise, your metadata will be ignored. - PriorityThis is a rough control for how far up or down the load order a plugin should go. Plugins with equal priority will be compared as normal by the sorting algorithm, but plugins with a larger priority value will load later in the load order than plugins with a smaller priority value. Priority comparisons are only used for plugins that are not masters, requirements or otherwise told to load after one another, and only between plugins that conflict, except if a plugin is empty, in which case conflict status doesn't matter.

A plugin with a higher priority value will load after a plugin with a lower priority value. Plugins have a default priority of 0. RequirementsThis is a list of files that are required by the current plugin for it to function correctly. LOOT will display an error message if any of the listed files are missing.

Any file, not just plugins, can be listed here, and each file has three sub-fields:
