📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 910 endorsements and over 100k downloads
- Simple concept that dramatically changes combat dynamics

⚠️ Cons
- No detailed description or install instructions provided by the author
- Last updated in September 2023 – may not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest F4SE version installed and that it matches your game version, otherwise the plugin won't load.
- Test friendly fire in a small settlement or with a few NPCs to see how it affects your playthrough before relying on it in major battles.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install the plugin through it to keep your load order clean and avoid manual file placement errors.
