stopped mine

Halted Stream Camp sits on top of a decent iron ore mine. This mod will allow you to claim mines for the faction of your choice, preventing bandits from spawning there again.

Overview:

Halted Stream Camp is pretty good as a generic bandit dungeon. It has a nice design that makes sense as a real place, has a unique style that shows whoever designed it really put some effort into the little things, and I think if players would probably never visit more small dungeons like Halted Stream Camp. It also has a good iron mine, so you'll have at least a reason to keep coming back. Unfortunately, despite the solid design, the place is poorly lit, covered in traps and gnarly mammoths, and the bandits do get a bit tedious.

So I cleaned it up. The cleaned up version is better lit, has a group of guards and an actual guard rotation schedule because sleep deprivation is a real issue and the miners are replacing poachers because one of the groups is very valuable to everyone. Another had a weird mammoth hunting fetish I wasn't very comfortable with, and an overseer. Basically, I took a default poaching camp and turned it into a mining camp.

To view the cleared version, you must declare the camp in either banner or in the ledger at the end of the dungeon. Once claimed, the camp will change control within 5 real-time minutes, 24 in-game time, or you move far enough away from the camp to unload. You can apply for Whiterun Hold, House Battle-Born, House Grey-Mane, the Empire or the Stormcloaks' camp. Mainly this will affect which guards you get and what faction or equipment they have, but there are some additional benefits if you side with Whiterun, House Battle-Born, or House Gray-Mane. Claiming the fort will spawn guards and miners, and introduce you to the default overseer, Fjori Farroson. Whoever controls Halted Stream Camp will increase effectiveness, so it's probably a good idea to keep him alive, but he's not irreplaceable, so have backup supervision if you decide you don't like him that much.

Whiterun is generally better for the blacksmith if it controls Halted Stream Camp. Both Eorlund and Adrianne will sell more iron ore, with an average of over 100 gold available for barter. House Battle-Born and Gray-Mane will improve themselves a lot more, but a player with a little flexibility can benefit from this. One of the Eorlund or Adrianne will have extra ore to sell, and the control residence will have an average of 300 extra gold coins for players to steal.

Additionally, this mod supports Radiant exclusions. Once the camp is declared, Halted Stream Camp will put itself on a list and will no longer be targeted for "Kill the Bandit Leader" type quests since there is no Bandit Leader to kill. Note that for this to actually work, you need to include the Radiant Exclusions optional file as an optional file here.

Leave a comment. I need you to provide as much information as possible about other mods you are using, because if I can't make it happen with this mod and you don't tell me what else you have, there's nothing I can do for you

It may take some time in the first few days to get answers. I'm so focused on the whole concept of Halted Stream Camp right now that I'd rather not visit it again sooner. The good news is that no one else cares about Halted Stream Camp, so as long as you reset the controls on the bandits, nothing bad will happen if you ignore the mod entirely.

Yes scripts, because these are all mine. Not on textures and meshes because they aren't. View related content from the original author.

At least think about it, if you use any script that says LCO or a form that starts with 015f, I'd still actively work on that stuff, and if you package an outdated version of the script, you're going to have a bad time. I'll update them every time, but I won't stop you. I think …
