📋 About This Mod

I find it extremely annoying when you start to talk to someone and they walk out of range mid sentence, so I made this mod to try and cut down on that.

Often times you have to start the conversation over and hear voice lines again. Other times they wont even talk to you until their animation has finished, which can be even more annoying.

How this mod works is, when the script detects you are talking to an NPC, it tells the NPC to stop and think about what it should be doing. (Usually it's to stop and talk to you) As a safety net, it also tells the NPC to stay near you while the NPC is talking to you.

The other half of this mod is some of the most common animations that NPCs have to leave to talk to you have been edited so they can talk to you during the animation. Things like hammering, farming, and leaning on certain things are in there.

This mod is being marked as beta for two reasons. One reason is if I missed any common animations, I can add them. Let me know in the posts if I missed an animation you'd like added. The other reason is there's so many NPCs in the game its impossible to tell how this script will effect each one. If an NPC reacts poorly to this mod, you can say so in the posts as well.

This mod is highly compatible. It shouldn't conflict with anything except mods that change the few animations that have been edited.
