Editing furniture scripts - help needed

[Apap]

Hello everyone,

 

I found this amazing institute reclamation chairs mod (original topic by Trykz)

 

CCRecChairs.rar

 

I would like to replace the original scripts that have been used in this mod and make the reclamation chairs work similarly to the vanilla pillory (keeping assigned settlers bound to the chair unless ordered otherwise). Generating happiness for a settlement when used would be a nice bonus too (something like Crazy's rugs and racks). 

 

Since I have no experience with modding, I don't know where to start - do you guys have any tips in regard to which software I could use to make it happen and how to generally go about making/replacing the furniture's scripts? 

 

All help highly appreciated

 

Thanks in advance!
