Modular Miscellaneous Tweaks  

Version: 1.1

for Anomaly 1.5.1

This is a collection of small tweaks I've done for my own personal game. Most of them have few/no conflicts with other addons, but are too small to release as their own individual addon. Here, I've collected them together with a FOMOD that allows you to pick and choose the features you want.

All features are optional. The features are:

Talk to Everyone

Allows you to talk to everyone, even if they aren't a squad leader. You can also trade and take quests from non-squad-leader NPCs.

Full credit goes to Dawn/Strider for their original fix for Anomaly 1.5.0.

Suppressor Changes

Suppressors now apply positive effects at the cost of increased maintenance. Thus, they are meant to be used by experienced STALKERs who can afford to pay the extra costs associated with them.

Adding a suppressor to your gun now applies the following:

+3% bullet speed
+1% gun accuracy
-18% hipfire recoil
-18% aimed recoil
+5% hipfire accuracy (stationary)
-10% hipfire accuracy (moving)
-15% hipfire accuracy (turning)
25% faster gun degradation (due to increased back-pressure and suppressor needing cleaning)

These are all easily editable in the weapons_silencer.ltx file. Not compatible with any addon that modifies this file (B&S).

Companions don't ruin your Disguise

A simple 2 line fix that stops companions from affecting the disguise system or blowing your cover.

Best used alongside he is with me, otherwise your companion(s) might get shot at by the other faction you're disguised to.

Alters gameplay_disguise.script

Shift+Space TakeAll and Shift+Single-Click Grab

Changes the 'take-all' key combo to Shift+Space. Also changes menu functionality so that a single click on an item while holding Shift will transfer it between inventories or select it for buy/sell.

Full credit goes to MrAus10 for their original alt+click variant (available on Discord here).

Remove Mutant Auto-Aim

Removes auto-aim from the attacks of cats and pseudodogs.

REQUIRES Soundscape Overhaul - Real Mutant Sounds.

Less NPC Jamming

Tones down NPC jamming to less-extreme levels, especially for more experienced STALKERs. It just seemed odd how an expert would be jamming every 10 rounds.

Remove Grey Radiation Effect

Gets rid of the grey radiation post-processing effect from entering radiation fields or getting close to 'old' mutants.

Higher Surrender Chance + Faster Mercy Kills

Increases the chance for an injured NPC to surrender to 45% (originally 25%).

Also makes NPCs much faster about putting down injured NPCs. This prevents the endless NPC strafing when a huge group is trying to execute a single injured guy.

Higher NPC Wounding Percent

Human non-Monolith NPCs will enter the 'wounded' state at 30% total health instead of 20%.

Suited for players who typically set high bullet_hit_power in their game settings, but find it weird that a leg shot can kill a person outright.

Longer NPC Loot Range

NPC loot range has been expanded from 35m to 50m. They will still abide by your "corpse loot distance" exclusion setting in gameplay options.

1L Bottled Water Uses Re-split

The 1L Bottled Water's uses have been adjusted from 3 to 5.

Each bottle still provides the same amount of total hydration, satiation, and radiation removal - just less per each use, now (60% compared to previous).

Compatible with FoodDrugDrink Animations. Will likely conflict with anything that changes drink items.

Credits

Dawn/Strider for the original 'talk to everyone' for Anomaly 1.5.0. I used it to guide the needed changes for Anomaly 1.5.1.
MrAus10 for their original alt+click grab modification. I used it to guide the needed changes for a single-click grab (without holding alt).
I take no credit for this addon/these changes. They can be easily done by most people, anyway.
