Project AHO bug fix - questline starting from level 15
Fixed an SSE Project AHO bug where the Shaglak Orcs would approach you no matter what level they were at, knocking you down at Mixwater Mill and initiating the AHO questline. He will now be sandbox tested at the factory and will only contact you when he reaches the expected level 15.

Fixed an SSE Project AHO bug where the Shaglak Orcs would approach you no matter what level they were at, knocking you down at Mixwater Mill and initiating the AHO questline. He will now be sandbox tested at the factory and will only contact you when he reaches the expected level 15.
Overview
Fixed SSE Project AHO bug where Shaglak the Orc would approach you, knock you out at Mixwater Mill, and then start the AHO questline regardless of your level. He will now be sandbox tested at the factory and will only contact you when he reaches the expected level 15.
specific changes
Shaglak will play in the sandbox at Mixwater Mill until you reach level 15. He would spend his time chopping wood in the millyard and then out on the river looking for the next valuable prospect.
If you contact Shaglak before level 15, he will only respond with general dialogue - obviously unable to judge whether you are worth enslaving.
The mission begins when you reach level 15 or higher, at which point Shaglak's AI will switch to intercept you when you get close to him.

OVERVIEW
Fixes SSE Project AHO bug where Shaglak the orc would approach you, knock you out at Mixwater Mill, and start the AHO questline regardless of what level you were. Now he will sandbox at the mill, and only approach you once you reach Level 15 as intended.
SPECIFIC CHANGES
Shaglak will sandbox at Mixwater Mill until you are level 15. He will spend his time chopping wood for the mill and looking out over the river for his next worthy prospect.
If you approach Shaglak before level 15, he will only respond with generic dialogue - clearly not judging you a worthy prospect for servitude.
The starting quest will begin on the event you level up to 15 or higher, at which point Shaglak's AI will switch to intercept you if you go near him.

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.
