📋 About This Mod
Tired of having The Dragonborn eat alone?
Get some family meal time. Or a feast to celebrate surviving another day of dragon hunting. Whichever you prefer.
When The Dragonborn sits down to eat, nearby friends and family will wander over and join in the mealtime:
- the player's spouse
- Current Followers
- Potential Followers
- Dismissed (former) Followers
- Adopted Children
Only in "safe" locations. Technical explanation: the location needs to have the keyword LocTypeHabitation or LocTypeDwelling
LocTypeHabitation: settlements have this, from major hold Capitals like Whiterun and Solitude, down to dinky little places like Anga's Mill
LocTypeDwelling: any non-hostile structure with at least one bed in it. This includes player homes and Inns.
Installation:
It shouldn't conflict with anything.
Mid-game shouldn't matter.
Install manually, or with a mod manager.
No, there's not even an MCM. This was about two hours from start to finish.
If you're installing mid-game, you'll have to change locations once before it starts. Enter/exit a building or whatever.
As a companion mod, this will have seated characters remove their helmets before eating or drinking.
