darthbdaman Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago View File Less Annoying Freebies Removes inventory quantity check from free companion items, and makes companions give the items in bulk, instead of one at a time. Description Canderous, Jolee, Mission, T3-M4, and Zaalbar can all give you a selection of free items throughout the game. The way this works is obfuscated from the player, but with some trial and error, it becomes obvious that the system is rather poorly thought out, and encourages extremely degenerate gameplay to exploit it. After first boarding the Ebon Hawk, each of the companions can give up to 10 items (11 in the case of Canderous, Mission, and T3 for some reason). Every time a Star Map is found, this number increases by 20, up to 110 (or 111) items in total. However, if you have more than 10 of the appropriate items, you can also not receive an item. This can be circumvented by dumping the items into a container, or selling them, and talking to the companion again. This extremely annoying. This mod removes the check for the having too many of the given item already in the party inventory. This mean you will no longer have to dump your inventory items in a container to maximize the amount of items you receive. This does not change the total or type of items, it just removes the busywork required to get them. This mod also makes the companions give all of their items in bulk, instead of one at a time. Previously, you only received one item, and would have to repeatedly speak to the companion and ask them for items, until they refused you, to know that you had reached the item limit. This represents 553 conversations of wasted time (not including the conversation where the companions refuse to give you the items). It is now much faster to actually get these items. Canderous has special dialogue based on which items he gives you. He will still play that line, but as he now gives you multiple items as random, this line doesn't actually reflect anything. Similarly the player will still ask for one item, and the companions will respond as if one item was given. I will not be changing that, this is just a convenience mod. There are optional files available to make Zaalbar and Canderous choose a single item type at random, and give only items of that type, instead of randomly choosing which item type to give for each individual item, leading to a relatively even variety. Canderous was originally going to give Battle Stims, in addition to the Adrenals he gives in the vanilla game, and by default he still checked to see if the player had Battle Stims in there inventory when determining whether they were eligible to receive Adrenals. There is an optional file to restore this Battle Stim functionality, making Canderous randomly give Battle Stims in addition to Adrenals. This will not work with the Single Item Type optional, as Canderous' dialogue is not setup to support it. Install/Uninstall Copy the contents of the 0 - Install folder to your game folder. You can copy the contents of one of the 1 - Canderous **** optional folders, if you want that functionality. You can only choose 1 of these You can copy the contents of the 2 - Zaalbar Single Type Items if you want that functionality. Compatibility Will be compatible with all mods that don't make edits to the companion item distribution system. This mod doesn't edit any dialogue, only the underlying scripts.
