Followers get up from beds immediately

[Giovanni1285]

So, I might be late here lol, but I noticed that followers never seem to stay on beds after you stop commanding them, they immediately get up... this totally breaks immersion for me, c'mon, they can't even have a night to rest after all the battles they fought?

 

I guess this happens because beth didn't want you to feed easily on them as a vampire, but couldn't they find a better way to do this, like putting a restriction flag on followers so they can't be fed on?

 

Anyway, I wanted to know if there is a mod/ something to change in the Creation Kit so that followers remain sleeping on a bed after you command them, can anyone give me an insight??

This might be happening because the follower's specific sleep schedule does not match up with what time you are commanding them to sleep, which is why they don't stay put. Some followers keep very strange hours, and some of them don't have sleep schedules at all, but will use beds if the Allow Sleeping option is ticked in their sandbox package.

 

 

1. Load the Creation Kit.

 

2. Expand the Actors tab with the + button.

 

3. Click on Actor. You can scroll down through the various races, or type your follower's name into the Filter box.

 

4. Right-click on your follower and select Edit.

 

5. Go to the AI Packages tab and look to see if they have a package with the word "sleep" somewhere in it. If so, right-click on the sleep package and click Edit.

 

6. The Package tab has an area called Package Template. It should have "Sleep" as its setting. If so, good. You shouldn't have to change anything here.

 

7. Click on the Schedule tab. Example schedule:

Hour 23 = The follower normally goes to sleep at 11 PM.

Duration = 9.0000 = The follower sleeps for nine hours.

If you would happen to want them to sleep at 9 PM instead, you would change the 23 to 21, but unless you extend the duration number, the follower will wake up two hours earlier than they did before. So you might want to change the 9.0000 to 11.0000.

 

If you do not wish to edit the follower in any way, make sure to click the Cancel button on the follower's actor page. Even the simple act of opening the follower's actor page with the Edit button counts as editing the follower, so be careful.

 

That will tell you what you want to know of their sleep schedule. If you want to know more about editing or adding different packages, the Creation Kit wiki has some wonderful tutorials.

Ok so i added a sleep package to my follower and they do sleep on their own, but if try to command them to sleep they will get up as soon as i stop commanding them :sad: i guess there isn't much to do about that. Anyway, thanks for trying to help me :laugh:
