LE Bills

[StanIsTheLaw]

Wondering if someone could make a small mod that allows you to deduct expenses. As part of trying to be realistic, I have downloaded some house mods so there are additional player homes in each of the smaller reaches, Dawnstar, Morthal etc. But I don't use them until I become Thane and purchase a book at the local store which is the title deed for the home, usually about 8-10,000 gold. But I should also have ongoing expenses for the place. So every Monday I try to remember to buy and sell at a least 1000 gold for each house i have (each has a servant in attendance) and 500 for each of my 2 companions. But its a pain to keep remembereing and doing it.

 

I have tried but can't get my head around the new scripting.

 

The simplest way I see is to create a global variable that you can use the console command to alter. e.g. playerEXPENSES

 

Then a script that runs once a week that deducts from the players gold an amount times a variable. The amount could be set by giving another variable a value, e.g. playerExpensesUnits. The first one would be how many homes you own, the second one an average value you want to deduct for each one. If you don't have enough money, all but 500 is deducted anyway and the balance plus 2% is added to a carryover figure that is added to the next weeks amount when it is up for deduction.

 

That would really make life in Skyrim a little more realistic, too much stuff for nothing in this game IMHO.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.
