📋 About This Mod
Add a small, scaling amount of health damage to your unarmed strikes
Calloused Fists
It always bugged me a bit that you can punch people in the face all day long and as long as they have any fatigue left it doesn't actually injure them. This is a simple Lua mod for OpenMW that adds health damage to unarmed hits against opponents haven't been downed yet.
The damage is calculated as the FatigueDamage fHandtoHandHealthPer (h2hSkill / 100).
fHandtoHandHealthPer is 0. 1 unless you have another mod changing it, so this doesn't end up being very much damage but it means you get blood sprays on hit and I think it feels a little better than just hammering on an enemy with an unmoving healthbar until they fall over.
Requirements
OpenMW 0. 50 or later
