LE Sit to level up

[PaisleySleeves]

Hi,

 

I dislike the way you can just level up at any moment in Skyrim, exploring dungeons, walking in the wilderness and even during combat, I don't think this is the way it should be. I liked the way things worked in Oblivion where sleeping was required to level up, but I think this may be too far. The way I play my game is I only level up when I am sitting, okay so I could just continue to play this way and a mod isn't necessary. It would be nice however to actually be restricted to only be able to level up whilst sitting (and remove the temptation to level up at any moment) and maybe to obtain a buff or even an extra perk if sat in your own home.

 

I have searched this forum just in case anyone else had suggested such a mod but couldn't find anything, I have obviously also searched through the Nexus mods to see if such a mod already exists, maybe I am not using the correct search terms, so if someone is aware of such a mod perhaps they could point me in the right direction.

 

Does anyone agree with me and would this be possible if so I think it would be great if someone could write such a mod. I unfortuantely lack the skill/talent and don't have the time, my free time is spent playing Skyrim.

Might be able to make this, since it would probably be a very similar thing to this mod. If I have the time.

I don't know of any way to actually block the player from leveling up by opening the skills menu. If you figure out how to please let me know as I could use this information for my current mod.

Well you could register for the opening of the skill menu, check if the player is ready to level up (is there a way to check this? I imagine there is...) and if they open it and they're ready to level up, pop up a messagebox that says they have to wait to sleep and close the menu. Since the only way to open the actual menu when ready to level up is to level up, it won't actually really be restricting much, though it would be even better if you could just disable the player being able to level up while still allowing them to look at their skills.

It would be great if you could make this mod Matthiaswagg. Ideally it would be good to restrict the player from actually levelling up as you say but still be able to view their skills, perhaps this is not possible as there may not be a way to stop the levelling process. An alternative might be to prevent the spending of the perk points until sitting to reflect, the draw back here is that the player can still increase magicka, health or stamina which is something I do not like, especially during combat I think it borders on cheating. I like Chesko's Reflection and I have it in my load order, I did also try this mod but it didn't seem to work, or at least not for me, maybe I had another incompatible mod in my load order.
