Looking direction animation mt_idlelooking overrides Aroused Sexy Idles

[sssaaacccddd]

So I'm a modder and I'm looking to improve the mod Aroused Sexy Idles 

Core concept of this mod are these lines of code here:

if IsSexLabFemale && (Arousal > Threshold3.Value)
  thisActor.SetAnimationVariableInt("FNIS_NPC_SingleIdle", 1)
  FNIS_aa.SetAnimGroup(thisActor, "_mtidle", Mod.mtidle_base, 2, "ArousedSexyIdles", true)

which have FNIS overide the animation group "mtidle" when player arousal is above a threshold. So instead of the vanilla idle animation, a character will now play aroused animation.

 

This works perfectly for player character, but when it comes to npc there is a problem:

most of the time, npc characters are not playing the animation mt_idle.hkx, but instead animations\male\mt_idlelookingA.hkx or its equivalent (idlelookingA-D), which prevents the arousal animation from playing. You will see npc playing the arousal animation for a split second, then quickly overide by looking direction animations.

 

I wonder if it is possible to

1. Overide the looking direction animations too. For that purpose I will have to get the animation group name of those animation, but I have no idea how to.

 

2. Prevent npc from playing looking direction animations. My first guess was that those animations are a result of npc looking at the player and head tracking, but even if I do 

akActor.ClearLookAt()
akActor.SetHeadTracking(False)
(akActor as ObjectReference).SetAnimationVariableInt("IsNPC", 0)
(akActor as ObjectReference).SetAnimationVariableBool("bHeadTrackSpine", False)

(code above credit to

it is still not enough and npc would still play mt_idlelookingA.hkx over mt_idle.hkx. What am I missing here?

 

Thanks a lot for your help in advance!
