📋 About This Mod

Basics:

Addon for Night City Interactions with drinking spots around the City Center district. Partner drinks at 7th Hell, Empathy, Memorial Park Patio, the Port Cafe, and Downtown greenhouse spot. Plus 3 solo drinking spots

Why the split into addons?

The original Night City Interactions was a huge monolithic mess! All spots, for all districts, and the Edgerunners stuff, everything, was just one scene file that was always loaded, everywhere in Night City!

Splitting the mod into individual districts, and within them individual scenes for each locations means that:

  • []Bugs are easier to fix[/]

    []New locations are easier to add[/]

    []Individual locations, and whole districts, only need to be loaded when nearby[/]

    []Different locations can be more customised[/]

    []Users can have better confidence in what is installed and running[/]

    How to install and 'start' the mod:

    Unzip the .zip file into the "Cyberpunk 2077" folder so that the .archive ends up in the "Cyberpunk 2077\archive\pc\mod" folder.

    If the mod is working popup will appear to inform you that it is (this will come after the 'core' popup, if that was installed at the same time)

    How to uninstall super safely:

    The addon should be safe to uninstall at any time, but if you want to be super sure simply make sure you are not within ~50 of a City Center location and then:

    • []Delete the #NCI_CityCenter.archive file from  the "Cyberpunk 2077\archive\pc\mod" folder[/]

      Empathy: When Gig: A Lack Of Empathy is not in progress

      Port Cafe: When Gig: The Frolics Of Councilwoman Cole is not in progress

      Memorial Park Patio: Any time, no restrictions

      Downtown Greenhouse: Just north of the Downtown ripperdoc, any time, no restrictions

      Known Issues/limitations:

      Gigs preventing the use of drinking spots maybe need to be fully completed to unlock the drinking spot, that includes going to the gig's dropbox to collect the rew
