📋 About This Mod
What this mod does.
This is a simple patch to hide the Sidequest of Skyrim quest dialog by specifying any NPC.
I made this patch because I thought it would not be immersive to have this dialog appear for the enemy NPC I am about to fight (the trigger for me was Ebony Warrior).
It uses SPID and allows you to add any NPC you want.
Incidentally, I asked tjhm4 to add a similar feature to Trainers Galore. thanks, tjhm4
About the description of SPID

Simply add the Editor ID, Form ID or Name of the NPC you wish to exclude from Sidequests of Skyrim to the Sidequests of Skyrim Dialog Exclusion SPID Patch_DISTR.ini.
Current NPC registration status
All NPCs below are Editor ID descriptions.
I personally recommend that NPCs write their Editor IDs since there will be no trouble translating them into other languages.
