📋 About This Mod
Cicero Distance Fix Cicero use to stay uncomfortably close to the player in vanilla game, sometime pushing you off cliffs or blocking your path. Since I like to keep Cicero as a follower I modified the minimum distance he should keep from the player character making it similar to other followers. This little mod is almost weightless (1kb) since it just change a \"number\" and nothing else. There should be no issue or conflict with anything. Enjoy!
A tiny bug fix that stops Cicero from standing too close to the player in Skyrim. Simple, effective, and popular with 1,451 endorsements. For players annoyed by Cicero's intrusive personal space.

For Skyrim players who are tired of Cicero breathing down their neck during conversations. If you're a completionist who wants a more natural NPC spacing, this is a quick fix. Skip if you're looking for broader AI or dialogue overhauls—this is purely a distance tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the .esp file in your Skyrim/Data folder and enable it in the launcher or mod manager.
