Arousal increase or decrease through hotkeys

[Solitude103]

I don't believe a mod like this exists, but it'd be nice to have a mod where you can manually increase (or decrease) arousal through a hotkey. Why? it's more for roleplaying, but it can synergize well with other mods that rely on arousal mechanics.

It wouldn't be hard to make something like that.  Just script a magic effect or quest with hotkey awareness and use the documented arousal change mechanics from SLA.

 

But roleplay?  Ignoring conditions that exist in favor of those you arbitrarily generate is the opposite of roleplay.

Well speaking on behalf of role-playing. I somewhat agree, but I don't rely arbitrarily assign conditions. I set up rules that I write down in a separate notepad for a variety of things. For example if I were to utilize this theoretical arousal hotkey it'd be use for things such as:

 

• Seeing someone nude from a distance (I know Sexlab Aroused has this mechanic in place, but from what I tested in only applies whenever I'm closed to a nude NPC)
• Drinking or eating certain things; or interacting with certain items or statues in-game (I know there's a more out there called 'Interactive Arousal' that does something akin to this, but the idea of manually being able to do this seems simpler to me)
• Seeing someone your character is attracted to (each day I spot this NPC; I'd press the hotkey for a +10 increase)

 

I'd probably come up with more as I play through the game. The general idea is that if I see or experience something that I think would make my character's arousal increase and there are no conditions in place that do it already; I'd simply press that hotkey and continue on with my role-play.

So add them.  Easy enough to do and less time-consuming than creating a mod for it.

 

Also, if you are mainly looking for arousal increases, the "Blushing When Aroused" mod has a hotkey-based arousal increase function.

Blush when aroused can increase arousal through a hotkey if im not wrong, not sure if it can reduce, haven't used it in a while

The hotkey featured in Blush When Aroused isn't working on my end, and even then the increase is a bit too high for my liking (+20). It'd be nice to have that feature as a separate mod. Nevertheless I appreciate the attention this post has received. I'm just gonna' make do with utilizing the 'Amulet Of Dibella' in Sexlab Interactive Arousal. I'll just pretend that the PC "shifts around" (re-equip) the amulet whenever something garners their arousal. I just realized that I can easily achieve this by setting the amulet as a favorite item; which then allows me to use a hotkey to quickly re-equip the amulet and trigger a +10 arousal increase in-game. If I ever give it a go at modding; maybe I'll attempt to create something akin to what I described.
