confusedd Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) It's a simple idea so I bet it has been brought up before. If it has please just share the link and I beg you not to flame me :D. TLDR: Put an upkeep cost in "Waiting". You can rationalize pretty much any strange action you do in la-la land, but for roleplaying/realism sake... this mod has to exist! Long Version: There was that recent mod that alters the maximum number of days you can wait at one time. Now that's all good but if you want to role play a bit, wouldn't it be cool if the Wait command brought up a completely new UI menu? Maybe even producing a tiny mini-game of its own? e.g. Resting in dungeons and in the open world: In this UI menu you would have to put in 1 unit of food and water per 5 hours of resting. Or maybe just a ratio of 1:1 to keep things simple. You have a chance of getting attacked or robbed unless your follower take turns sleeping. Something like that I guess... Resting in your House: Whatever the cost is for 1 unit of food and water, it will be converted to gold price. Gold points will be deducted from your inventory. At 1:1 food per hour ratio, 31 days multiply 24 hours which is 744 gold if you want to wait 31 days in your house. Global Rule: No upkeep triggers are required if you rest for less than 24 hours at one time. What do you guys think? Cool or redundant? And... there was this farm simulator I saw recently on here, I think a mod like this would go great with it (I never tried that mod yet maybe it already has something like this) Edited March 11, 2012 by confusedd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChromeWarriorXIII Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I'm all for spicing up to Wait function, but I don't understand why you would have to pay money to wait in your own house. I agree that you should have a chance to be attacked by bandits every hour that you wait in the wilderness, but I think it should instead interrupt the waiting and force you back into the action.

confusedd Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 ahh so a mod already does exist for getting attacked: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=12452 The gold cost (or consumption of food and water units) for waiting at home is merely to simulate the cost in how much food and water your character has to eat as he lives as a hermit inside his home :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
