No More Trippin and Bear traps

No More Trippin' & Bear Traps!

REQUIRES

ALL (major) DLC

No more Trippin'

Upgraded all of the scripts used by the various tripwires, bear traps, pressure plates... anything that referenced the Light Step perk. These traps work with trigger boxes which unfortunately can be perfectly triggered by any creature no matter if it has the 'flying' flag set. They also are limited in that only the player can hold the Light Step perk in normal circumstances, so his companions are boned in that regard.

Trap scripts will not trigger for ANY creature that has the flying flag set, so ED-E and Sergeant RL-3 will be able to hover over them safely. NPCs will not trigger traps either if they have ownership of it through their id or factions, nor will companions trigger traps of which you're the owner.

With the Light Step perk, or In My Footsteps perk from God in Dead Money, you and your companions will also be safe from triggering any of the scripted traps, so that you can merrily romp into every mousetrap.

Scripts were altered taking YUP as the base, greatly simplifying them as there's no more need for endless checks of factions and dummy weapons. The scripts themselves are still somewhat of a format mess, but hey, if it works, don't touch it. It should be easy to patch the function they now call when triggered by an actor to give additional features/requisites if necessary.

Two new global values affect how traps are triggered:

• []TripTrapNoUnlivingTrigger controls whether traps can be triggered by anything that's not a living, moving actor. So as to avoid what I view as an exploit by moving an object or corpse over the trap to trigger. It is enabled by default, to use vanilla behavior, type 'set TripTrapNoUnlivingTrigger to 0' in the console.

  []TripTrapNoHitTrigger controls whether traps can be triggered by shooting at them or by nearby explosions. Again, to avoid what I view as exploits so that disabling a trap relies a bit more on your actual skills. To use vanilla behavior, type 'set TripTrapNoHitTrigger to 0' in the console.

  Plus, experience from disarming traps has been somewhat corrected to use a custom function and all the globals for it, you're guaranteed to receive at least 2 XP no matter how easy the trap is to disarm.

  Bear Traps!

  Because I had to patch all traps' scripts, which included bear traps ones, I figured I ought to provide for mods which make placeable bear traps possible, well, namely for the Bear Traps mod by Suuk.
