Stuff
-----------------------
* Storing of Items
By default, when using Set or Mirror the first time on NPC, the items in its inventory will be
unequipped, stored, then removed from its inventory. This way the AI is unable to choose different
items to equip other than the selected outfit. However, only the base item is saved. The health status
of armor or other changes in attributes will not be saved and will not be recovered when restored.
This results in armor being "good as new" upon restoration. The storing of items can be disabled
in the ini file. Alternatively, the 'Keep' command in 'Set Outfit (Full)' effectively does the same.
* Set Body Support
Outfits can include a custom body-type to go with it. This is useful when playing with
clothing/armor mods designed for a different body-type than your default. In addition,
to equipping items on your character, cast 'Set Body Self' to change your body-type. Then cast
'Set Outfit (Save)' to save in storage or mirror it using the spell or menu command.
* TamagoClub/HiyokoClub Support
If model becomes pregnant, the spells will not work on her until after birth and postpartum recovery.
This prevents possible weirdness with body/equipment from TamagoSetBody. Use caution when doing a
complete removal of an outfit while a pregnant model is wearing it, especially if the outfit has
bodytype associated with it.
Option for some (or all) newly born hiyoko to have outfit equipped instead of its inherited items.
The percentage (or chance) of hiyoko being set can be adjusted as well. So they all won't come out
wearing the same few outfits in storage.
* Removing Mods
NPCs and Clothing/Armor from other mods can be used as models and in outfits, respectively.
The mod will detect if an NPC or item is no longer valid to due its parent mod being removed.
-For an NPC, it will simply be removed from the model list.
-For an item, any outfits containing the item will be removed and
models wearing those outfits will be restored to their original equipment.
* No Male/Female Distinction
Outfits are considered "unisex". Outfits are not separated into male/female categories.
* Companion Mods
Some companions have custom inventories and scripts managing them.
Conflicts could arise from adding/removing items to/from companion inventories.
* Quest Items
This mod attempts to prevent Quest Items from being copied into an outfit as well as
unequipping Quest Items off a model. However, there are no guarantees on the effects of using
these spells on models that have a Quest Item in their inventories.
* Equipment Slots
The "outfit_mask" setting controls which equipment slots are stored in an outfit as well as which
is unequipped/removed from a model. By default: Hair, UpperBody, LowerBody, Hand, Foot, Amulet slots
are in the mask. The setting can be changed to allow/disallow more equipment slots, but items are still
limited to clothing/armor. Even if an outfit doesn't use all equipment slots specified in a mask,
all existing items in the inventory that match the mask will be unequipped/removed.
Example, the "hair" slot is set in the mask by default, which is used by helmets. If none of stored
outfits have a helmet, but the NPC does have one it will be unequipped/removed. This prevents
other mis-matching clothing/armor being equipped along with the outfit.
* Tails
The tail slot is not included in the outfit_mask by default, but can be set by the player.
However NPCs won't equip tail slot items themselves normally, and need to be forced to by
enabling "force_tail" in ini.
* Export/Import Outfits
Transfer outfits to a new game or import from a master list. The mods no longer
used do not have to be removed from the exported data. The mod will verify each outfit separately.
If you still decide to install this mod after reading/skimming/skipping all of the above, then
I wish you good luck and have fun.
