Basic location of damage

[Require]

Skyrim 1.9.32.08 or higher

SKSE 1.7.3 or higher

[illustrate]

Adds a lightweight angle and position based damage system with the following hit locations:

Head: Has a high chance of instant kill against NPCs, depending on the weapon, unless wearing armor. (can be disabled)

Neck: Kill instantly or bleed on NPC.

Torso - Front/Rear/Side: Side strikes are the most effective targets on the torso against armored opponents.

Left arm: Equipped

Chance to disarm shield when using weapon Right arm: With weapon

Remove timing of leg jump or stun, depending on weapon used and armor worn

Back Knees: Vulnerable to injury even when fully armored. A successful hit results in fatal bleeding.

Hits at the hit location will have varying levels of effect, depending on the following factors:

-Weapons used-

Size and quality of opponent -

Whether the target is wearing armor at that location

-Armor level

-Attack power

Menu spells come with the following options:

-Ability to adjust positional damage levels-

Disable/enable instant kills with unarmored headshots.

-Disable/enable for player or

NPC Positional Damage Effects - Disable/Enable Off-Hit Damage Reduction - Reduces the player's base weapon damage so that only positional hits have significant impact

-disable/enable disarmed item drops - To address savegame bloat concerns, disarmed items will simply be unequipped from the NPC. (Starting from version 1.5)

[Additional information/Known issues]

-Currently, positional damage will not affect mounted NPCs, ghosts, dwarf automations, and other creatures that cannot be revived, such as dragons, drakes, etc. - May notice delayed effects in large mod battle scenes if many demanding scripts are running simultaneously.

-On rare occasions, you may encounter an NPC that appears to be immune to positional damage. I haven't been able to fully resolve this issue, so I set up a detection method that detects when this occurs and removes the hit damage reduction on the affected NPC (if enabled).
