Sleeping Expanded - Animations and NPC reactions

     

So I was happily playing a permadeath character earlier this week on Twitch (It's a lot of fun, feel free to stop by and say hi!) when Sunhelm was like "dude, code red, you need to sleep". So of course, I decided to find a nice place for my level 8 Khajiit to sleep, a random bed in a bandit fort. In the middle of the nap, I was interrupted when 2 bandits noticed my character.

They started attacking me, and naturally I tried to stand up. Did you know it takes roughly 9 seconds in vanilla for a character to get out of bed?

9 seconds. Not even my grandma takes that long, and she's 89 years old. Needless to say, they killed our friendly khajiit before he could stand up. That sent me on a quest to tweak some sleep related things that have always bothered me. Without further ado, I give you...

• []Fully voiced with spliced or vanilla lines. There's around 100(!!) different reactions all in all. Of course, depending on the voicetype of the NPC, there will be more or less lines. Some have custom lines, some have only default angry vanilla lines.

  []The feature is just for fun, it doesn't affect relationship level, quests or anything else, it just changes the initial greeting to the Skyrim equivalent of "WTF, it's 4AM, leave me alone" when you're waking them up. Immersive, I would say!

  []Some reactions are more elaborate and funny than others. It's just the way things are. Some people will be confused (Errrrrr.... Huh?), some people will be angry ("Waking up people in the middle of the night, this is what has become of Skyrim!)" and so on.

  - People now breathe while sleeping, instead of looking dead. 

  []You might have never noticed, but once you know, there's no going back. NPCs are DEAD when they sleep. No, really. They stop breathing. The sleeping animation in vanilla is 100% static, which means... they don't move AT ALL.

  []I've added 2 new animations to sleeping in beds, 3 new animations for sleeping bed rolls. Now coming with (you guessed it) 100% more breathing than in vanilla, so much wow.

  []The new sleeping animations add a bit more variety compared to vanilla, but please know that this is VERY nuanced. There are some changes here and there, like the position of the hands or legs, but they're mostly faithful to the original vanilla animation. The breathing animation is OK but could still look better, I might impro
