About this mod:
F4SE plugin, which fixes a bug that caused companions to shoot at players during or shortly after combat.
Regarding the vanilla bug: When the player enters "command mode" with a companion in combat or just after the battle, the companion's "AI target" becomes the player (e.g. they face the player, they may say a response or the battle finish line, etc.). However, if a companion's AI has been queued for a "Fire with Equipped Weapon" request, they may shoot at the player.
Original bug:
Companions who shoot at players during combat
compatibility:
Should be compatible with anything.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
