📋 About This Mod

LATEST STARFIELD UPDATE

For the latest information about compatibility with the Free Lanes and Terran Armada update, due for release 7 April, please see the sticky post https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/9285?tab=posts

This mod fixes the bug where some companions/followers say their lines at inappropriate lines. It will let you hear phrases you've never heard them say before. Formerly titled Rosie Dialogue Fix

NPCs affected

Rosie Turnhill - no longer thinks she's in Cydonia when she's not. Now triggers lines in New Atlantis and Neon

Rafael Aguerro - no longer thinks he's in New Atlantis when he's not

- no longer thinks they are somewhere that needs a spacesuit at all the time

NEW - constellation companions no longer think boarded ships and derelicts are way too hot or cold

It only required a couple of minor changes so should work with pretty much anything.

Installation instructions

Preferable to use a mod manager, otherwise copy the .esm file into Starfield\Data.

Incompatibilities

Nothing major known or expected.  Tested with Starfield Free Lanes

Included as part of xtcrefugee's Make Rosie a Real Doctor on Creation Club, so you don't need both installed.

Technical Info

Unlike other companions, the affected NPCs doesn't have any conditions set for certain sets of their lines.  So I've added these conditions, so they only fire when she's at those locations.

these are pretty small changes that are found at  \ Starfield.esm \ Quest \ CREW_EliteCrew_RosieTannehill

Used in
