Basic Positional Damage - Special Edition

[ Require ]

SKSE64_2_00_06 or higher

[describe]

Adds a lightweight angular and location-based positional damage system with the following hit locations:

Head: Very likely to get an instant kill on NPCs unless wearing armor, depending on the weapon. (can be disabled)

Neck: Instant kill or bleed on npcs.

Torso - Front/Back/Side: Side strikes are the most effective target of the torso against armored opponents

Left Arm: Chance of defensive shield if equipped

Right arm: opportunity to disarm

Legs: Temporarily paralyzes the opponent, causing bleeding or dazing, depending on the weapon used and armor worn.

Back Knees: Vulnerable even when fully armored. A successful hit may result in fatal bleeding

Hits on location will have varying levels of effectiveness based on the following factors:

• Use weapons
• Size and quality of opponents
• Whether the target is wearing armor at that location
• Armor level

-The power of attack

Added a menu spell with the following options:

• Ability to adjust positional damage levels

-disable /Enable instant kill on unarmored headshots.

-disable/Enable positional damage effects to players, or NPCs

-disable/enable hit damage reduction - reduces the base weapon damage done by the player so that only positional hits have a significant effect

-disable/enable disarmed item drops - To solve the problem of saving the game, disarmed items will be completely unequipped from NPCs.

-disable/enable locational killmoves - Targeting the head or torso may trigger a kill if the location is unarmored or lightly armored and your combined melee skills are high (IF randomNumber < ((onehanded + twohanded) * 0.6) then try killmove).

[Additional information/Known issues]

-Ranged attacks tend to be slightly higher than the crosshair in SE. This results in this SE version being slightly less accurate for long-range headshots. I plan to address this issue in the future.

• Currently, positional damage does not affect mounted NPCs, Ghosts, Dwarven Automations, and other creatures that cannot be revived: Dragons, Atronachs, etc.
• If many demanding scripts are running simultaneously, you may notice lag effects in large simulated combat scenes.
• On rare occasions, you may encounter an NPC that seems immune to local damage. I haven't been able to fully resolve this issue, so I set up a way to detect when it occurs and remove the hit damage reduction on the affected NPC (if enabled).

Congratulations if you liked it :)
