📋 About This Mod

Meant as a companion to Get On With It - No more waiting for doors, and a spiritual successor to the same change made in my Fallout 4 mod, No Door Animations - Instant Doors, this mod removes the animation of an NPC opening a door so there's no more lines forming to go through.

While Get On With It - No more waiting for doors isn't required, I'd consider it a soft requirement, otherwise instead of waiting for NPCs to perform the door opening animation, you'll be waiting for the door to play the door opening animation.
