Here's a good one...

I don't like how vats is basically free, especially after obtaining all action boy perks and using chems.

It just doesn't feel right to spam vats so liberally. Way too easy and cheaty.

 

My suggestion is to add a consumable item, similar to ammo, for using vats.

Like a special battery or chip that is consumed for every vats use.

This is a great idea and needs to be done immediately! :happy:

Even if the consumable doesn't do much in the way of preventing the spamming of vats, it's still useful as an additional recourse you need to manage. And the more the merrier, as it better makes use of obtaining the bountiful resources the game constantly throws at you everywhere. Puts them to better use.

Just seems to fit in so well with the flow of gearing up your character.

The consumable should be totally craftable and not be cumbersome or intrusive to use, meaning it should just automatically consume one unit when you activate vats. Very simple and automatic, and no weight penalty for carrying them ....Actually it should consume one unit only when you take your first shot in vats. Activating vats and not taking any shots should not consume a unit.

 

I would imagine the mod would have to be totally done with script (maybe even F4SE), as there is probably no native support for editing how vats functions this way.

 

Anyway, make it happen boys!

Anyone?

 

Wow really?

 

Nobody here thinks this mod should be mandatory?

 

I mean think of it, what if you had to actually pay to use the "instant enemy slayer 9000" aka "vats"

Really, nobody?

 

Damn

I would give it about two weeks. A mod like this would take some time to make. I also don't think many people will be interested in a mod like this.
