LE Follower and Marriage settings for "Everybody Loves Dovahkiin"

[nick10840]

Hello everyone. I'm going to be revamping the MCM menu for my mod and I'm also going to be rethinking my choices for the default settings. I would like to have the default settings set in a way so that the average person doesn't really even need to mess around in the MCM menu much.

 

So I'm posting a few polls and linking this thread from my mod page with hopes that my users will vote on the settings that they use. Also, if anyone reads this and wants to try my mod and report back what they liked that would be appreciated as well.

 

 

 

A quick overview of my mod: Everybody Loves Dovahkiin is a mod that gives the player the ability to convert normal NPCs into follower/marriage NPCs based on preconditions set in the MCM menu. When these preconditions are met (in dialogue mode), the player will see a dialogue option that, when chosen, will convert the NPC into a follower and/or marriage NPC.

Settings in question:

 

"Ignore In-Love": This will set the marriage filter to ignore NPCs who are in love with another NPC (i.e. Relationship Rank > 3 with someone other than the player). Note: Some married couples are not in love. If you leave this enabled and disable the other two, then it's possible to steal someone's wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend in a lore-friendly way.

"Ignore Spouses": The marriage filter ignores NPCs that are married to other NPCs regardless of their relationship rank with each other.

"Ignore Courting": The marriage filter ignores NPCs that are boyfriend/girlfriend with each other regardless of relationship rank. This will even filter the ones in "secret" relationships like Olfina Graymane and Jon Battle-Born.

"Assistance": Setting this to enabled will adjust all followers to assist you in battle. Some of the non-vanilla follower NPCs will only attack an enemy if the enemy attacks them first... even if the enemy is attacking you. This is currently disabled by default to preserve vanilla AI (lore-friendliness).

"Confidence": Adjusting the level of this setting adjusts all followers to the minimum confidence level you specify. Some of the non-vanilla follower NPCs are cowards. It doesn't matter if it's just a skeever attacking them, they will run around screaming and they won't defend themselves. Adjusting this setting only applies to NPCs who have a confidence level below whatever you set it to. For example, if you set it to "Average", a NPC is "Foolhardy" naturally will not be affected... only NPCs who are naturally "Cowardly" or "Cautious" will be affected in this example. Disabling this setting will preserve vanilla AI (lore-friendliness).

Please use the poll to vote for you choices. The poll results will be what I use to make the default setting decisions. Please feel free to post any comments below. Thanks!
