MonVert Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 I like this because in Defeat nobody was ever assaulting anyone else. <_< And it never worked half the time on my player, anyhow. (Usually I would just flat out die instead of enter bleedout.) Now I see bandits assaulting bears, guards assaulting stormcloak spies, wolves assaulting farmers, etc. It's a neverending orgy with OBIS, really. ? But I do agree that, despite the healing, you will just flat out die after being assaulted....since it doesn't re-equip you.
Scrab Posted February 3, 2021 Author Posted February 3, 2021 Dont expect a mod thats one week old to be able to properly rival a mod thats multiple years old. I am expecting a lot of issues in design and code and itll take time to find them all and kill them off (I heard you, Ill work out new Scnearios to make escaping easier) About consistency: The Quest scans every 5sec for Combat on default. If you find that to be too inconsistent, you need to decrease the Scan interval. This scan interval is equivalent to the maximum amount of time it can take the mod until it becomes active (or closes) Next to that, theres a 0.1~0.2 second delay for each evaluation which can cause assaults not happening at lower levels where 2 hits may already kill you. The reason behind this delay is to avoid overloading the engine with script load, causing lags or even ctds. The code to evaluate a knockdown is depending on victim type (player, follower, npc) 100~300 lines long. I dont want to execute this code 4, 6, 10 times at once because youve been hit by 4, 6, 10 mobs simultaneously. The game needs a short moment to get through that and until then, there will be no other evaluations 3
Husky1o1 Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 @Scrab just to let you know, I am very excited about your work on this mod and how you are concidering all the feedback. Obviously, this is not finished yet, so to everyone, please stick with constructive feedback, observations and suggestions and wait for the next release ? 3
tch65721 Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 I can't see the reason my female follower assaults those she defeats. It seems completely random. It would be nice to be able to set the minimum arousal for an assault by a follower to occur. Yeah, I'm using the pause key when the frequency gets a bit much. The setting I suggest would just be a bit more immersive. Multiple followers. If you have more than one does the mod consider them all or just one? I'm trying out two females which seems to work ok but I'd hesitate to add a male follower using the same settings I had set for my female follower. I don't really want to see any man on man action. Just a suggestion for the future. Seems to work pretty well for me. I set them to flee and they do. I haven't been defeated yet so I can't comment. I suppose I should try it. ?

Im much too lazy to start bothering about what can match up with what The MCM lets you set all of it in obnoxiously great detail For the Player: - Which Genders the Player does assault Followers: - Which Gender a Follower has to be to assault - Which Gender a Follower does assault NPCs & Creatures: - Which Gender a NPC of a specific Gender does assault. You can scroll down quite a lot there. If you dont want any Male on Male, you go into the NPC Tab into the "Male NPCs can assault.." bracket and disable "male NPCs" Spoiler I hope the left Side of the MCM looks less ugly with time, currently its just a few lines vs 100 lines of Filters kek I even split between Male & Female Creatures if you have that enabled in SL 1

If she does it every time it gets old fast. If it were tied to arousal it would happen much less frequently. That would be better IMO. Up to 4 Followers are supported. I cant add much more because the Game would start to blow up due to too many aliases in the Combat Quest Good to know, thanks. Already supported. Im much too lazy to start bothering about what can match up with what The MCM lets you set all of it in obnoxiously great detail For the Player: - Which Genders the Player does assault Followers: - Which Gender a Follower has to be to assault - Which Gender a Follower does assault Well, I was considering the case of two followers of different sexes. I want them to both only assault only opposite sex opponents. 24 minutes ago, Scrab said: NPCs & Creatures: - Which Gender a NPC of a specific Gender does assault.

Vuulgar Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 I am curious, are you planning ties to other mods like Simple Slavery or Sanguine's Debauchery after the assault?
nononysss Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 I really like this mod, I like it's fast paced-style way more than defeat. I was thinking about making a mod just like this but now I don't have to lol. The one thing this mod is missing is when combat ends but animations are still occurring. It would be nice if the remaining aggressors waited for a turn or if remaining allies would save their friend, something along those lines. Thank you for making this! 1

Yes, after I finished the basics of the frame 4 hours ago, Someone92 said: Instead of a Yes or No option make it a percentage option, so female actor use the 1st position in 0-100% cases. Cant see how that would be useful This option only ever kicks in when a female is trying to assault a male anyway - and if you have any femdom animations that want the male in Pos1 you even want to disable this as otherwise your femdom animations would never be used in this mod This option is more about personal taste than anything else. Cant see why youd like females with strapon/femdom animations in one moment and prefer the same assaulting female being depcited as a victim in the next even though shes still considered an aggressor
Illana Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 yeah something definitely up with this and NFF or just followers in general. Not yet tested without NFF but it does the same thing to every follower. Things I've noticed: 1. Follower starts detecting you and reporting you for crimes 2. Follower can be pickpocketed 3. Standing still during combat sheathing and resheathing. 4. Dialogue option to open inventory does not work (can select it but doesn't open inventory) I have to dismiss and re-hire for 1,2 and 4 to be fixed.

I had number 4 happen but I didn't pin it on this mod. Had to dismiss/rehire as you said. I use AFT though... so maybe NFF not a factor, at least with number 4.

Even without that though I'd still prefer version numbers is only because I download a lot of mods and then might wait some time before using them. Could always check the created and last modified date on the file but versions are easier. 1

A lot of the time the follower will just stand in one place and sheath and unseathe their weapons without doing anything else. Not sure if you've seen this behaviour also. Does it do that only during the defeated scenarios or does it mess with the follower's AI even later?

Dialogue option to open inventory does not work (can select it but doesn't open inventory) yes thats intended behavior, the issue here is more that you know of it. This sort of behavior is due to me requiring to remove the Teammate Flag, otherwise followers would ignore the Calm which stops them from attacking Targets in Scenarios. I usually add that back to the follower after the Scene. Im confused why that doesnt happen in your game I dont know any other ways from stopping followers to attack targets that the player is targeting/in combat with, if you do let me know and I see what I can do. Thats really annoying AI in Skyrim is a real pain, there is no straightforward way that I know of that stops NPCs from attacking a different, specific Actor, forcing me to do this sort of workaround - at least for mid combat scenarios. Maybe post combat ones I can handle differently 6 hours ago, axz2 said: Could always check the created and last modified date on the file but versions are easier. Ye, I see where youre comming from.

What the teammate flag does is forcing an Actor to inherit combat behavior from the player Meaning even if I make the follower an ally to an hostile NPC, as long as the player is hostile to that NPC, the Follower will continue attacking them, even when they have the Calm Effect. The same goes the other way around: A follower is only hostile to NPCs that the player is considered hostile to, so if I grant the player this calm effect, all followers will inherit it, stop attacking and stop being attacked This caused a lot of issues with followers going after unwanted targets or leaving combat for seemingly no reason. You have no idea how much it hurts to see people telling me its causing issues *sob

Maybe NFF does something with it that's not simply the teammate flag? I'll have to test this without NFF and see if I get the same bugs. I can see why defeat uses factions to get around this problem now

Follower gets assaulted and then broken until dismissing and rehiring HOWEVER, when I disable "keep ghost flag" and also change the bleedout duration to anything other than 0, it doesn't happen. Maybe this will help you?

If I get you right, thats essentially what Im already doing. The issue is that Player Teammates ignore Factions, they only go after what the player considers friend & foe. I need to split them from that thinking and since I cant (and shouldnt) edit the Teammate Flags imbedded behavior, temporarily removing the Flag seems to be the best option I have

Is there a way to range cap what NPCs can assault? Also update on testing: with NFF and the settings i mentioned previously they still stand there and sheathe and unsheathe
