[RELz] Followers at Home

So I just released this mod. Thought I'd invite the community to check it out.

Other follower mods might exist that do this, but I couldn't find any. It's a simple mod that should be compatible with everything under the sun.

* Followers at Home by Puff The Magic Dragon *
********************************************************

===========
Description
===========
Your loyal followers are now just a little more laid back - enough that they stop following your every footstep when you're at home.
They will sandbox and sleep instead of haunting you while you're at home, but come right back to your side when you leave.

============
More Details
============
You just got back from a long three weeks of adventuring. You're tired and sore and dirty. You walk in the front door and head off to take a shower - and your three loyal followers are so loyal they follow you right in!
Wait!
Aren't they at home? Can't they go do their own things?
Yes. Now they can.

I made this mod because I was tired of Serana following me all over our house like a lost puppy. This mod automatically applies packages telling her, or any follower, to sandbox around the house as soon as you walk in the front door. Leave the house, and she's right back at your side! I was unable to find any other follower mods that provided exactly this functionality. (Perhaps some of the major follower overhauls do this, but none of them mentioned it in their descriptions.)

There are a couple of variables that this mod uses to make this work: The global variable playerFollowerCount needs to be higher than 0; the follower needs to be in the CurrentFollower faction, and the follower's ActorValue "WaitingForPlayer" needs to be 0. For those who aren't modders, this means that this mod should work with any and all followers in the game, as long as they are actively following the player. This mod currently supports up to 5 active followers - if you have more than 5 active followers at a time, something is very wrong with you (and your extra followers after the first 5 will behave as normal). This mod triggers whenever you enter a location with the keyword "LocTypePlayerHome", which should cover all vanilla and DLC player homes and most player home mods.

It should even work with the many follower mods and follower overhauls. If you find one that is incompatible, let me know.

Many thanks to Bethesda for making such an awesome game and for making the construction set that lets people like me with way too much free time modify the game.
Thanks to God for creating us all!
