Detect Life and Detect Dead Rework - No longer concentration

Overview (mod lore)

Changes Detect Life and Detect Dead to be fire-and-forget spells with a duration of 7 seconds. To me, using them in their vanilla state is a bit annoying - The optimal method is to cast the spells for a brief moment to exploit the fact that the visual effect lasts for a few seconds after casting ends, which circumvents the high Magicka cost entirely.

This mod fixes that problem, by making the spells just more convenient to use and without having to tediously time your button presses to not evaporate your Magicka pool.

The Actual Changes (mod gameplay)

- Detect Life and Detect Dead are now fire and forget spells

- Base Magicka cost for Detect Life is 100 Magicka

- Base Magicka cost for Detect Dead is 150 Magicka

You still acquire the spells the same way, they just work differently now.

Compatibility

This mod edits:

- The Detect Life and Detect Dead spells

- The existing fire-and-forget detect life effect used for the Detect Life scroll (those still work with this mod)

Any mod that edits any of those specific things most likely is not compatible. It should prooobably work with other spell mods that do not touch those, but I wouldn't make assumptions

The actual concentration effects are untouched. There are four effects for each spell, which is fiddly to work with - detect friendly interior, friendly exterior, enemy interior, and enemy exterior. It has friendly/enemy versions to mark, well, friends and foes differently, and it has interior/exterior versions because the range is shorter when in an interior.

For the Detect Life spell, this mod modifies and uses the existing fire-and-forget detect life effects (I was pleasantly surprised by those existing, they're used for a detect life scroll - I tested it and they are unaffected by this mod)

For the Detect Dead spell, this mod has fire-and-forget versions of the detect undead (yeah, the name is different) concentration effects. I made them by copying the concentration effects and manually changing them based on the detect life fire-and-forget effects - the only difference between detect life and detect dead is the different conditions and target shaders

this took longer than it should have god
