Immersive Aggressive Opponents - Armor-Based Opposite Faction Aggression (Imperials Stormcloaks Thal

Description

If Imperial/Thalmor and Stormcloak NPCs meet, they will start fighting. However, in vanilla the only thing that changes when you join one of the factions is that soldiers at military camps of the opposite faction will warn you when you approach them (calling you a citizen), and attack if you don't obey. Not immersive.

• []This mod makes NPCs of these factions, including guards in holds controlled by their faction, attack the player if the player wears armor of the opposite side.

  []If you wear a Stormcloak armor, Imperials, Thalmor, Penitus Oculatus and guards in holds controlled by the Empire will attack you on sight. If you wear an Imperial, Thalmor or Penitus Oculatus armor, Stormcloaks and guards in holds controlled by them will attack you on sight.

  []Actually being in the faction is not required, they will attack you anyway if you wear the armor.

  []It checks armor in the following slots (1 item is enough) in the following priority: Body > Head > Circlet > Hands > Feet. There is also an installer option to only check the Body slot (the cuirass).

  []If you aggro some NPCs and switch your armor, it won't stop combat. But if you go far enough from them to stop combat and return, they won't attack you.

  []This behavior is disabled during Civil War quests that require you to visit the other faction headquarters for diplomatic reasons: Message To Whiterun on the Imperial side and Season Unending. Based on my tests, it also doesn't break the scenes at the end of the battles for Whiterun and Solitude/Windhelm. Ancano, Gissur, J'datharr, Shavari, Tsavani and Gaius Maro are excluded and won't aggro on you. Penitus Oculatus won't aggro on you after Stormcloaks take Solitude (because Commander Maro walks there freely during Dark Brotherhood quests).

  []You can still visit any settlements you want at any time, but not in your faction armor.

  []If you already joined a side in Civil War, your side won't aggro on you if you wear armor of the opposite side.
