Mod request: sleeping in Power Armor standing up

Or slightly hunched over in the PA rest postion.

Why?

Because it makes sense, anyone who has been in the military has fallen asleep at some point (nearly) standing up.

When I am marching thru a hostile wasteland in Power Armor,  I would rather switch it off, except for the HVAC, and dose inside while standing up than leave it.

Much more secure than finding a bed and being surpised and murdered by any molerat or pipegun wielding raider.

Sleeping is an incredible vulnerabilty, so I want Armor between me and the world when I am not in a secure area.

One could make this PA sleep a lot less restful for game balance reasons.

But if this was all real, people would definetly be sleeping in their power Armors if caught outside a settlement or faction base and overwhelmd by a need to sleep.

For player or everyone? Not so interesting for pl, i think, because his sleep is just a message box, no animation (can you trigger sleep in pa by the way? Hm, i forgot... Possibly, can be made so, if not), but narcoleptic npc could be funny, farming all day is hard work. Or whenever they cannot reach bed. There is even a suitable anim - synth shutdown (no breath though), but not sure about same anim for pa.

There are mods like "Go To Sleep" that let's you see the player while sleeping. Couldn't this not also be used when player sleeps in pa?

See you sleep? Don't know how and what, also it's unavailable. Could make like this: take shutdown pose, activate invisible bed (well, or is there a function to call sleep menu? Then could possibly use furniture for more natural enter/exit, though it's more vital for laying down). After sleep stops the pose persists, needs be canceled. Somewhat like seeing toon asleep, aimed for 3rd person. If a suitable anim pose for pa exists - think i saw something "powerless" - then easy to do. ps. It's PowerArmorDown, kneeling one leg. nope

No. "Go to sleep". It's a mod available on LL. Still in alpha state. It let's you see the character sleep and determine a sleeping dress. I use it since it came out and it's working for me.

What's LL? ... Found, some lab. Site takes forever to load, can't get. So, it works like Wait menu, no fade out? Does it require any script extender? 

ps. Well, F4se, mcm, not fun, pity.. If mod doesn't require special beds to craft, then possibly could work same for any furniture configured as Sleep trigger. Though may be locked to lay anims and default keywords only, hard to say without looking inside. Easy to test, add IsSleepFurniture kw and checkbox unknown31(iirc, well, same as any bed has) to a new craftable chair, for example.

The issue with sleeping in Power Armor is you are completely helpless to someone who knows that Fusion Core has a LOT of value.

Hmm, not moving.    Go ahead Tom, grab it and well head back to Goodneighbor.

Best to secure your perimeter of all hostiles before getting some shuteye - Power Armor or not.

And I doubt it will be very comfortable.

What i could accomplish https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/95350 . I like how goes, but it's basic, no funny stuff like stolen cores, maybe later or never, or somebody else will do a better advanced mod.
