NPC / Companion Dehydration Starvation etc.

[Katt7777]

I would like to request a mod that makes your companions have basic needs like food, water, and sleep. If they are unable to get what they need they will die just like the PC does. I just don't care for NPC's being able to to be able to go on forever with out water etc. or worse still some seem to pull out bottles of water or food from thin air. I would really like the challenge of providing for myself and companions realistically. It might make the game too tough for some but I would like to see it.

 

If this mod is too huge an undertaking I would appreciate some help in making it a reality. I have tried myself to give actors dehydration effects but I haven't been successful in making a timer or counter tie into them like the player has, of course I'm a beginner. What I would like is some script help or even a way to make new script commands since I'm not sure if this can be done with the GECK as it stands.

 

Thank you, any help is appreciated :blush:

 

So far I have this for my script but I'm unsure of how to count or time the actor effects.
