Things Betwixt

With this mod, performing fast-travel has a random chance of it being interrupted and you will instead experience a random encounter (usually combat) in a place between your origin and destination. Once you are finished with the encounter (either by killing enemies or running away), simply return to the Travel Menu to resume your journey. The scenario of the encounter also changes depending on the time, place and alertness of the player.

If you think vanilla Daggerfall's reliance on fast travel is too non-interactive and accelerated travel with Travel Options is much too demanding of your time and hardware, give this a shot!

When fast travel is initiated, the base encounter chance (X) for a random encounter is determined by the selected options in the Travel Menu:

• []Reckless travel has a higher base encounter chance than Cautious travel

  []Camp Out will significantly increase encounter chance 

  []The player's Luck can have a slight effect on encounter chance if it is better or worse than average

[]Travelling is used if the encounter occurs during the day. If the location is a town or dungeon, the player is placed in a start marker closest to their direction of travel. Otherwise, the player is placed in the center of the location.

[]Resting is used if the encounter occurs at night. If the location is a dungeon, the player is placed in a random dungeon start marker. If in a town, they are transported to the interior of a random tavern (or residence if DIEP or BCOD+BVOD is installed). Otherwise, the player is placed in the center of the location. A bonfire and tent (if in the wilderness or a dungeon exterior) will be placed near the player.

[]Ship is used if the encounter takes place in the High Rock Sea Coast (aka, the ocean). Rather than basing it on time of day, it is instead based on whether the player is surprised (see below). If not surprised, the encounter will take place on the deck with the enemies spawning ami
