What does this mod do?

This mod reworks the way potions, poisons, and ingredients function to create a more immersive and balanced alchemy experience. Instead of applying effects instantly, healing and damage now happen gradually over the duration of 5 seconds.

Key Features:

• []Potions restore over 5 seconds:

  Health, Fatigue, and Magicka potions now regenerate their effects over time. You can still drink multiple potions, but healing only happens after you close the inventory and unpause the game, making potion use feel more natural and preventing instant full recovery during pause.

  []Poisons deal damage over 5 seconds:

  Poisons now apply their damage gradually, including Nature, Frost, Fire, and Shock effects — allowing for more tactical use and letting your enemies suffer over time.

  []Ingredients rebalanced for over-time effects:

  All affected ingredients are adjusted to match the new system, supporting restore and damage-over-time mechanics instead of instant effects.

  []Beverage buffs:

  Drinks like Ale, Beer and Mead now restore a small amount of Fatigue over 10 seconds, giving them a flavorful and functional role in your adventures.
