For those who don't know what The Groovatron is, it's a weapon (not even needed if you have NVSE except for the dance party) which allow you to play a lot a different poses very quicky through menus on player or npcs, you can also set a hotkey for any of those poses to play it immediatly on self or on a npc.
You can move a npc where you want, make him neutral toward you if it's an enemy (temporarily), access his inventory, restrain him, freeze him, undress him, make him raise his weapon, clone him, put him to the stasis chamber to store him etc...
You can play any music you want with the MP3 player integrated.
There is also now a portable player home where you can teleport at any time and put your stuff, heal yourself, change your haircut or your face, cook.
The house is companion friendly you can make them wait there.
