Introduction
This is simply a set of compatibility patches for magic mods that I use frequently. The Maintainable Spells mod by Phalanks provides a means to truly "fire and forget" certain spells. The mod allows your character to cast a spell and then automatically maintain that spell at the cost of two-thirds of the casting cost to your Magicka. I felt this was more immersive as it allows for routine spells that should be cast and then maintained to function that way. It has been a while since Phalanks updated the mod, so with his permission, I took it upon myself to create a compatibility patch that adds spells from the updated FrostFall and a couple other mods that I like.
Phalanks did have a couple of patches (one for the older Frostfall and then one for Forgotten Magic Redone). My patch takes a different approach that does not depend on a script. Given how script heavy I run, this was an advantage to me. For any others interested in trying out this capability, I think you would also appreciate it. I have created standalone patches for each of the additional magic mods and then a single all in one patch if you happen to use them all.
If you have a favorite magic mod that provides a spell or spells that you want to have maintainable, feel free to send me a PM.
