Casting & Aiming Slow Down Actors Movement

This mod changes the pace of ranged combat. Casting spells or aiming without the right skills will slow down movement.

Features:

  • []Totally configurable

    []Light (This mod is animation event driven)

    []Compatible with True directional movement

    []Set different value for Bow and Crossbow

    []Set different value for Casting and Dual Casting

    []Persistent settings

    You can configure everything through the MCM, so if you don't like default settings, change them ;)

    Don't forget to enable the mod ;)

    By default:

    • []Debuff depends on skill level: the better you are, the faster you go..

      []Using magic slows down more than archery.

      []At low levels, the bow slows down more than the crossbow

      []At high levels, the bow slows down less than the crossbow.

      []Debuff during casting depends on the magic school of the spell used.

      []Dual Casting always slows you down a little: if you use two different schools of magic, the mod will calculate the average between your two skill levels.

      • []This mods includes a fix for vanilla spell to apply slow debuff properly, if you use a magic spell overhaul, let it win, it certainly includes same fix.

        []On first launch, you'll see an error in console. This is normal: the mod is trying to find the file used to store your settings, which doesn't yet exist.
