📋 About This Mod

Npcs like Nels Lando were given the Wander AI Package, but the poor sob would just stand there waiting for gold / a kiss / death.

I've done two things:

- add simple pathgrids on most roads of Vvradenfell

- double the range radius of a few npcs

A few more things to know:

- npcs will NEVER leave the cell they started in.

- Mabrigashes and Ashalanders do wander but not too far from their camp.

- Mai'q and Umbra as well as blocked npcs are left untouched

- npcs near dungeons are left alone (ruins often have pathgrids)

- paralysed, hidden, wounded, etc npcs are left untouched.

As an added benefit, any mod-added npcs set to wander will make use of the new pathgrids. (F&F, MCA, Hostiles, etc)

This mod should load quite early in your modlist.

Don't forget to merge objects.

  • Community-approved with 211 endorsements and nearly 4k downloads

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2021—may not be compatible with the latest Morrowind patch or mod setups
  • Only affects NPCs with AIWander packages, so if you don't notice the bug, you won't see a difference

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a simple plugin, just drop the .esp into your Data Files folder and activate it in the launcher.
  • If you use a mod manager like Wrye Mash or MO2, install it through that to keep your load order clean.
  • Check if you have other mods that alter NPC AI packages—they might override this fix, so place it after them in load order.
