📋 About This Mod
This is a remix of Yacoby's old Drug Realism mod, intended to make things a bit more... realistic? Lore-friendly? I don't know.
+Merchants will still barter with you if you are carrying drugs.
+You still have to click twice on the service that you want, in order to initialize the script.
+You can only sell moon sugar and skooma to merchants who sell the same (either / or... they don't have to sell both)
+Legionnaires no longer materialize behind you - but you will incur a bounty if you try to sell drugs to non-dealer merchants.
+Khajiit no longer buy drugs just because they are Khajiit. That's racist.
+Merchants who buy / sell are:
Ashumanu Eraishah, Suran Tradehouse, Suran
Helviane Desele, Desele's ... Delights, Suran
Andilu Drothan, Lower Waistworks, Foreign Quarter
Bildren Areleth, Apothecary, Tel Aruhn
Mororurg, Aundae Clan
Ra'Virr, Balmora
With the exception of Ra'Virr, who I have kept as a dealer just because he is shady as f, all the above have drugs in their inventory. So, basically... if they're selling, they'll buy as well.
Compatibility
This conflicts with LGNPC - Foreign Quarter, which makes Andilu Drothan and other merchants in the Foreign Quarter refuse to barter if you are carrying drugs. To make it compatible, open LGNPC up in the Construction Set, go to Character > Dialogue, click on the Persuasion tab, then remove the added dialogues under "Service Refusal."
