Please help! Can't remove script effect.

[linyuheng2000]

I install the mod 'Companion command and tactic' yesterday. Today I encounter a bug that companion keep a very close distance to me no matter what distance I change. I uninstall the mod and the effect still there, nothing change. I even try to sleep for two days and I use fallrim tools to clean the script but still nothing and I can't find the script with fallrim tool in my new clean save. Please help!

I'm no expert, but probably the safest thing is to uninstall the mod and revert to a save from before you installed it (assuming you have one). You lose a day's gaming, which is a pain but not the end of the world. The problem with scripts is that they get baked into your save game even after you uninstall them, which can cause all sorts of problems.

Yep. All you can do is revert to a save from before you installed the mod. Not all scripts get baked into a save, 'fire once and forget' scripts can usually be uninstalled without causing problems but scripts that run continually (usually tied to quests) persist. It may not even be a script in your case, it could be a game setting or some such that was altered by the mod.

 

It's important to read any uninstall notes (if any) on a mod page before uninstalling a mod mid-playthrough.

The Companion commands script is simple and solid, all it does is sets a companion variable for FollowerDistance that switches AI packages. If your having issues there is something else going on, likely a conflict with another companion mod;

 

CompanionActor.FollowerSetDistanceNear()

CompanionActor.FollowerSetDistanceMedium()

CompanionActor.FollowerSetDistanceFar()

 

Even if you uninstall the mod that companion setting will be whatever you last set it to.
