Deviously Helpless - Extended

[Hex Bolt]

Version 2.0.2

 

New:  A new situational vulnerability setting, "Devious Followers low will".  Having low willpower makes you just as vulnerable as wearing restraints.  The global variable _DLowWill in Devious Followers defines the threshold (it defaults to 3).

 

New:  A new situational vulnerability setting, "SLUTS Livery".  Bright pony girl body painting ("livery") makes you an obvious target, increasing your vulnerability when it's visible (when you're naked).  Works with both SLUTS Redux and SLUTS Resume.

 

 

Regarding the _DLowWill global variable, understand that this is Devious Followers' variable.  Deviously Helpless just reads the value.  If you change _DLowWill from the console, you will affect Devious Followers when it checks this threshold for low will.

Would it be possible to add Devious Followers Continued's Willpower stat as a vulnerability?

 

Meaning greater vulnerability as the Willpower stat decreases.

The new update adds DF low willpower vulnerability, but not in as flexible a manner as you described.  For consistency with all the other vulnerabilities, and to keep the MCM settings simple and consistent, it's a binary condition: you have the vulnerability or you don't.

 

Although it's not as flexible, this approach does give players a strong incentive to keep willpower above 3.  Perhaps that's the point where your mental state changes to passively accepting what's done to you, which affects the way you carry yourself.  Bandits notice that and see weakness.

 

This mod does read the value of DF's _DLowWill global variable and use that as the threshold, so if it changes in DF, Deviously Helpless will use the changed value.  However, I don't believe that DF lets you reconfigure that variable, other than manually setting it via the console.  If you decide to experiment with changing that variable, keep in mind that DF also uses _DMedWill for its medium will threshold, so obviously the low value should stay lower than the medium value, and changing these will affect how DF decides that you're subject to low or medium will conditions.

Hello, 

Do you need to have the Deviously Helpless Redux installed or should you download this without having the original mod installed?

Deviously Helpless Extended (this mod) is the LE replacement for the original Deviously Helpless.  It works fine on SE too, but if you're on SE, you'll probably want Deviously Helpless Redux.

 

Deviously Helpless Redux is the SE-specific replacement for the original Deviously Helpless.

 

Only install Deviously Helpless Extended or Deviously Helpless Redux.  Neither of these newer versions require the original mod.  Do not install both Extended and Redux.
