LE Unique mod request

[9a3iqa]

It would be great if someone can make a mod which allows the player to properly control thralls and summons by giving them orders. The orders I think would be useful are the WAIT, FOLLOW, ATTACK and CEASEFIRE orders.

 

The WAIT order should allow the player to point to a location where the thrall/summon would go to and wait and stay put in under any circumstance.

 

The FOLLOW order should allow all "waiting" thralls/summons to stop waiting and follow the player again.

 

The ATTACK order should allow the player to point to a target and cause the thrall/summon to attack this target even if it is non-hostile.

 

The CEASEFIRE order should allow the player to select a target which prevents the thrall/summon from attacking even if that target is hostile.

 

 

This would be useful for a lot of conjurers because having thralls and summons following you around cities is a pain especially in buildings where they look out of place, block doorways and corridors and scare people away (you know the "that spell looks dangerous keep your distance"). Also sometimes the player wants to fight and enemy without interference or wants the thrall/summon to attack a specific enemy.

 

I think the best way to implement this would by to designate a button (eg K) which allows a command to be selected by pressing W for WAIT, F for FOLLOW, A for ATTACK and C for CEASEFIRE. This should also NOT pause the game.

 

I really feel Bethesda fell short in the magic, and especially conjuration aspect of Skyrim and you awesome modders are saving the day for Bethesda.

 

I also hope it's possible to create this mod and somebody would create this mod (as I couldn't do it if my life depended on it).

 

Thanks for reading.

To make this mod compatible with mods which allow multiple summons would also be important. So if you have multiple summons you should be able to select which one of them to order.

 

Anybody think this mood is a good idea? And how easy/hard would it be to implement ?

Can anyone tell me if it is an interesting idea?

 

I think it's unique and has never been done yet. I just hope it's not hard to make.

go read up on Psikotics necromancy mod. I think it includes this but I'm not entirely sure.

Looks good but does not have orders for summons. I will try to do this in the summer, haven't modded before though so don't know what to expect.
