SSE Two NPC's to share a double bed?

[ChewNTobacca]

Hello again, I'm trying to figure out why I can't have two NPC's sleep in the same double bed. I've got an inn with a functional innkeeper and his wife. They are argonian folks who live in the basement and run the inn. I've got them set with a husband/wife relationship (set as "Confidant" and "Spouse") and each one has their own sleep package, one goes at 22:00 and the other goes at 23:00. The first person to get there gets in bed and sleeps their schedule, while the other stands there and looks at them for the duration of their sleep schedule. I even set them to use the same sleep package and still no luck.

 

Now, I've done this twice before with two other mods, and they both work as they should. I've looked numerous times to see what is different, and all I can see is the fact that the Mr. is the innkeeper. I'm having a hard time understanding why it's worked for me twice and now I can't duplicate it again, even though everything is the same. I've got locations set and all that with the Inn and Dwelling flags.

 

If anyone can help me figure this out I would appreciate it.

 

Thanks,

Chew

There's a fallout 4 mod that worked out how to get two people to sleep in the same bed, I can't remember the name offhand, it's been years since I played it, but what they did was make two pillows, one pillow went on the right side of the bed, and had a laying animation associated it, and did the mirror version for the left pillow.

 

I don't know if there are animation "marks" in Skyrim SE though.

I solved this with a double bed and an extra invisible marker (BedRollGround), so you can link one package to the bed, the other to the marker :wink:

You have to arrange for the left side (as viewed from the foot looking towards the head of the bed) to be occupied first.

Thanks for the replies. I got it working, although I didn't change anything from before. After numerous test runs, they started to use it just fine. I even made some changes to their sleep schedules, and still works great. I made an attempt to use a separate bedroll, etc. but the appearance was not up to my standards.

 

Thanks,
