Proportional Magicka Regeneration

How is this mod different from the others?

Most of the other mods calculate the amount of magicka you regenerate independently from your maximum magicka. I found that this could make the percentage of magicka regenerated vary quite a bit as your maximum magicka changes. I also wanted intelligence and willpower to play different roles in magicka regeneration, and wanted there to be some options for Atronachs. So, I made this mod.

Also, this mod works as a framework for making your own proportional magicka regeneration mod. If you like the concept of proportional magicka regeneration, but don't like the provided formulas, you can make your own formula with just a few lines of code. More detailed instructions at the end of the description.

How regeneration works

The total amount of magicka regenerated each second depends on your current intelligence (indirectly) and your current willpower (directly). The same formula applies to both the player and NPCs (but it is possible to set different multipliers for the player or for NPCs).

Willpower: determines the percentage of maximum magicka being regenerated.

Intelligence: influences magicka regeneration by raising maximum magicka.

This has the effect of making magicka regeneration feel pretty consistent throughout a playthrough, and it also makes the impact of

willpower much more noticeable.

Willpower does not linearly affect magicka regeneration (so doubling your willpower will not double the amount of magicka you regenerate). This is so that getting to obscenely high values of willpower won't give you infinite magicka. I made three different curves that you can choose between, and you can view them either in the mod picture, or on Desmos. You can choose between these different curves in the MCM menu. The x-axis denotes current willpower, and the y-axis denotes the percentage of maximum magicka being regenerated.

Atronach Regeneration

You can configure how Atronachs regenerate magicka with this mod. There are three main settings here:

• []A flat multiplier on magicka regeneration for Atronachs. (Setting this to 0 will disable regeneration for Atronachs).

  []Whether Atronachs can restore magicka by resting

• Whether Atronachs can restore magicka by traveling.

  Why did I do this? There are already lots of ways of getting around the Stunted Magicka penalty, and those methods can be more tempting if you don't passively regenerate magicka (at least I found them to be). By allowing magicka regeneration, but at a much slower rate, I think it can help to make the Atronach sign more appealing on a modded playthrough. (Regenerating 80% less magicka is rough, but not as bad as not regenerating any at all.)
