Alternative Leveling is a complete leveling system rework, it changes the way you level up. 

Consuming (or using) Stamina for actions will transfer the said Stamina to a pool, the same rule applies to Magicka then by sleeping you will gain a percentage of that pool (either from the Magicka or Stamina pool) as permanent Stamina or Magicka, but don't sleep on one ear, this pool decays over time that scales with your timescale (so with a timescale of 20 you need to hurry if you want all the stats, but with a smaller timescale you have more time to plan ahead), the pools themselves have a hard cap as well, so you can only gain a maximum amount during any training session before going to sleep (this by itself creates an incentive to sleep, sleeping gives a buff that increases your skill experience gain which creates a very healthy environment).

The way you gain Health is forever changed too! A fourth of your Stamina and Magicka is converted to Health plus a flat value of 50 to even things out for other mods.

The way you gain perk points is unique! You gain perk points by leveling up your skills, every 3 Skill-ups you gain 1 Perk Point.

Regeneration values for Stamina and Magicka have been nerfed a bit from vanilla, you want to grind that Stamina and Magicka faster? Craft potions or food that aid with recovery but mind the pool caps.

Your gain 1 level per 25 health that you gain from this procedure.

NEW FEATURES IN THE BETA:

- Real-Time sleeping (always 8 hours), hover your crosshair over any bed and tap the "O" key (default setting which you can change from the MCM Menu) to sleep in that bed in real-time, or just tap the key once to sleep anywhere.
- All skills start from 0.
- All perks have been removed from every skill tree but something new's been added, a star.
- A new progression system has been added, check the video out to find out what it's about, as well as any other balance changes.
- Script optimization and changes.
- The new progression system's upgrades each cost 1 Perk Point (to clarify).

What do you need to do to play this mod?

1. Sprint, Power attack (if you don't have a fatigue mod) and your Stamina pool will increase OR cast spells and your Magicka pool will increase.

2. At any time you may go and claim a percentage of the Stamina OR Magicka pool by sleeping, this will increase your maximum Stamina OR Magicka
(wherever it is applicable) and by cause and effect, your maximum Health.

Warning:  Stamina Pool and Magicka Pool decay over time, it is more noticeable the higher your timescale is, I recommend a smaller than 20 timescale to allow more time to travel.



1. Since the new version we scrapped all the OnUpdate events, this mod is now save-bloat and papyrus-lag free we rely on Animation Events to do our dirty work.
2. The decay rate still uses an OnUpdateGameTime event that fires every 10 minutes of in-game time.



1. Magicka Percentage Conversion. (default 1)
- Increasing this will yield higher Magicka values, decreasing it will do the opposite, whenever you sleep a percentage (the value that is displayed) of the pool will be transferred to your Magicka, the same rules apply to Stamina Percentage Conversion.

2. Stamina Percentage Conversion. (default 1)
- Increasing this will yield higher Stamina values, decreasing it will do the opposite.

3. Magicka Pool Cap. (default 500)
- Increasing this will lower the difficulty and time required to invest in training, decreasing it will do the opposite.

4. Stamina Pool Cap. (default 1000)
- Increasing this will lower the difficulty and time required to invest in training, decreasing it will do the opposite.

5. Stamina Regeneration Rate. (default 1)
- Increasing this will increase your Stamina regeneration rate (it is percentage based so if you increase it to say 100 you will regenerate all of your stamina in 1 second)

6. Magicka Regeneration Rate. (default 0.5)
- Increasing this will increase your Magicka regeneration rate (it is percentage based so if you increase it to say 100 you will regenerate all of your Magickain 1 second)

7. Perk Points awarded per X Skill-ups. (default 1)
- This option depends on (8), and will award you as many points as it is displayed whenever you sleep and you have the required number of skill-ups.

8. Skill-ups required to award Perk Points. (default 5)
- Any skill-up that you get counts up to the number required to award perk points, increasing this value will make it harder.

9. Timescale. (default 20)
- Affects how fast or how slow time passes by, this is an option in MCM so you can manually set it for yourself.




1. What does a Skill-Up mean?
When you increase a Skill's level by leveling it up, it usually happens when you hit something with a Spell or a Weapon.

2. <incorrigible english?>
I made pasta this morning, it tasted better than your FU- excuse me, your english is horrible, don't talk to me.

3. What do all these MCM settings mean?????
Read the description, if you still can't understand then maybe you shouldn't worry about it too much, you'll understand when you grow up.

4. Your mod sucks, it uses laggy OnUpdate events!
That's not a question, but f-... Alright, the only dangerous event is for the Stamina portion, go ahead, use Convenient Horses to check your papyrus latency, let me know if it jumps up more than 1ms.

5. Your mod does not work for me, your mod isn't worth using, KYS.
