BasicNeeds

Description: This mod adds a necessity to sleep, eat and drink. There are two types of this mod: BasicNeeds.esp - changes base items (only food and nonalcoholic drinks). It doesn’t effects the alcohol and drugs. BasicNeeds_OldStyle.esp - Doesn\'t change base items so it is completely comparable with any other mod. But some items has a Drop-Consume glitch (when you drop item from Pip-Boy screen with right mouse button it is considered as consumed). Game Changes: Player will get a penalty if he don\'t eat, drink or sleep. More or less regularly. Maximum time before the penalty will take effect calculates from Player Strength and Endurance. Penalty will increase with time, but will not be fatal. All counters are independent. Like drinking a beer will not reduce hunger level. Different food cause different effect. Like eating potato chips, will reduce your hunger, but not for long. Unlike juicy steak. Cannibal perk reduce Hunger. Hematophage perk reduce Thirst. Drinking surface water will reduce thirst level. Some drugs (like Jet or Psycho) will help you stay awake. Tiredness can be reduces only by sleeping in bad or taking drugs. Waiting will not increase Sleep Counter. Sleeping recovers only part of cripple effect (depends on Player parameters, Medicine skill and sleeping time). Some food type weight has been reduced. (Only in BasicNeeds.esp) To stay in normal condition you will need 2-3 food rations, 2 bottles of something, and sleep or wait 6 hours per day. History: V 0. 6 Mod has been rewritten in GECK.
