# ComparableName
### Description
The [ComparableName](https://maraudical.gitbook.io/status-effect-framework/type-specifics/scriptable-objects/comparablename) scriptable object can be used in multiple ways. It can be used to remove effects, but is mainly used by non-stacking [StatusEffects](https://maraudical.gitbook.io/status-effect-framework/type-specifics/classes/statuseffect) because duplicate effects are compared by the [ComparableName](https://maraudical.gitbook.io/status-effect-framework/type-specifics/scriptable-objects/comparablename) and not the [StatusEffectData](https://maraudical.gitbook.io/status-effect-framework/type-specifics/scriptable-objects/statuseffectdata). The reason for this is to allow different Status Effects to differentiate their values while still being considered same Status Effect.
For example, lets say you have a 'Weak Poison' and a 'Strong Poison', their [ComparableNames](https://maraudical.gitbook.io/status-effect-framework/type-specifics/scriptable-objects/comparablename) would both be 'Poison' since they are the same Status Effect but with different values. If they aren't stackable it will also be able to properly calculate the duration when [non-stacking behaviour](https://maraudical.gitbook.io/status-effect-framework/type-specifics/statuseffectdata#non-stacking-behaviour) is set to match the highest value.
