📋 About This Mod
All issues caused by a single keyword... Here is another mannequin fix.
Simply removes the ActorTypeNPC keyword from the ManakinRace. using SkyPatcher.
Plugin since KID/SPID is applying first before SkyPatcher does it job (atleast for me, so many hours of debugging...).
I recommend using the Plugin since this Keyword is used extensively in most KID/SPID mods. So... 2 birds and etc.

[]Issues with Mannequins moving around stem from Quests filling their aliases with a mannequin due to that keyword. Some of those aliases will change AI Packages. Making them "move" around (more like teleporting) despite being immobile.

]Instead of looking through all Quests (vanilla and modded) and fix their conditions it is much better to simply remove the keyword.[]Why does it have that keyword? I believe it was simply left there when Bethesda cloned the NordRace for the ManakinRace.

[]Once a mannequin has filled an alias for a Quest. It is almost impossible to remove them from that alias as a 3rd party. So, they are pretty much stuck there until the offending quest removes them.
[]TL;DR. This mod may not be able fix your already broken mannequins. You have to remove the keyword before this happens!
[]Though, you could try a cell reset.
I've been trying out all Mannequin fixing mods only to realize it is due to the AI Overhaul Lite mistakenly overriding the AI packages due to that damn keyword! I'm not taking any chances, with all the KID, SPID, and SkyPatchers mods out there possibly using that keyword to do something. Well, not anymore.
Just remove the keyword.
Let me know if this worked for you... or not.
