Campsite

Campsite is a simple camping mod that allows the player to build a campfire and pitch a tent. Campsite is built in the vanilla style using only existing items. It is designed to feel like an unintrusive, optional extra feature of the game that isn't noticed when not used. While camping mods with extra features already exist, I wanted to create something simple without a perk tree, new items, spells or powers added to the magic menu.

Campsite is designed for players who just want the ability to camp while travelling, or set up a more permanent campsite to use as a home or to store items.

Features

Build campfires by clicking on firewood in your inventory

Add a cooking pot to your campfire (cooking pots are now purchasable from general goods merchants and can be found throughout the world)

Purchase 4 different types of tent, each of which can be configured in 3 different ways

Pitch your tent anywhere in the open world, except for near/within settlements

Choose a function for your tent. A bedroll is there by default, but you can remove it and use your tent for cutting firewood for your campfire, storing items, or even smithing if it's a large tent.

Fully integrated with the vanilla style - no unimmersive messages or menu clutter

Placed items will align with the terrain automatically, or will be returned to your inventory with a warning if terrain is too uneven/steep

Simple and lightweight with no background scripts

All of the information required to use this mod can be found in Skyrim's help menu, but you can read on if you'd like to know a bit more about how it works before installing. A basic guide is also shown the first time a campfire/tent is placed. If you're having difficulty using the mod, then please read this before asking for help.

Campfires

If you have 3 or more firewood in your inventory, you can click on it to build a campfire. If you don't have any firewood then place a tent, configure it as "crafting", and then use the wood chopping block to gather some. Choose between a large campfire (5 firewood) or a small campfire (3 firewood).

"Activating" your campfire will give you several options:

- Ignite/Extinguish/Clear up

- Add a cooking pot

- Add a map marker

Campfires can be ignited and extinguished using spells as well as through the menu.

Burning campfires will run out of fuel after 12 hours (large) or 8 hours (small) unless you have the "infinite campfires" add-on installed, in which case they will burn until manually extinguished.
