📋 About This Mod
Overview
Hirelings Unlocked removes the vanilla 3-hireling limit. It fixes the hireling state flags that can block recruiting or dismissing, and handles the awkward party state that can happen when hiring them with party limit mods.
Note that the first three hirelings have predetermined idle positions for each camp as added by Larian. Since this mod is focused on unlocking the vanilla limit, extra hirelings will simply idle on camp next to Withers.
