Smoking for the player character

[Flamereaper]

For some mindbending reason, the developers either feared to be seen as endorsing smoking, so while you can have all sorts of addictive drugs in the Commonwealth, you cannot smoke. And only you cannot, as it seems like everyone else lights up all the time.

I personally like to roleplay, and for certain types of characters, it would be fitting that they get all sorts of addictions and bad habits as they try to cope with how the world turned out and what they lost.

 

It would be awesome if:

- You could light up manually

- As the addiction goes on, the character might do it on its own during dialogue

- There would be a very minor boost, with diminishing returns, to something, and a very gradual health-, injury-, or radiation hazard.

- Handshaking and blurry vision (instead of a headache, as that would be difficult to do) when detoxing

I've thought of that also. Probably won't be possible until the CK. Smoking by NPC's could be tied to a idle animation? Might be possible to add it to the PC now. If it could work, it would probably just be random smoking.

Im sure you could use a play anim command and smoke if ya wanted to, Im not sure what smoking would do though... raise a stat temporarily at the cost of lowering Max HP? Which one? And dont say Charisma because its cool :p

Well, if you want to make it realistic as far as the game can do, if it had a boost, it would be very short and very minor, and it would only happen the first few times, then after that there would be no boost, but if you're addicted, you have to keep doing it just to keep your status normal.
