About this mod

Changes the targeting of "Enhanced Leap" from single target to an Area of Effect centered on the caster. This allows you to quickly buff your entire party with the spell. Three versions, one that disables use in combat (QoL), one that does not (small cheat), one that adds Until Long Rest duration (big cheat)

Changes the targeting of "Enhance Leap" from single target to an Area of Effect centered on the caster.  This allows you to quickly buff your entire party with the spell.  Two versions, one that disables use in combat (QoL), one that does not (Cheat).

All versions:  Removed the ability to effect enemies.  I don't know why you'd want to, but now you can't, in vanilla you can.  I felt this was necessary to avoid accidently buffing them with the AoE.  I left the ability to buff neutrals, in case there's one of those annoying NPC escort quests or something;  will probably change it to allies only if I make it through the game without ever seeing a use for it.

All versions:  Does not effect the Githyanki psionic jump.  This is on purpose, since it is not a spammable spell.

NoCombat version:  I consider this a QoL mod, since "Enhance Leap" is a ritual spell it doesn't use up any spellslots out of combat.  There's minimal gameplay benefit to this mod; the benefit comes entirely from reducing the annoyance of buffing multiple people in a row.

Combat version:  I consider this a cheat mod, since in combat the player will save both spellslots and action economy from using this.  Of course, there's nothing forcing you to use it in combat even with this mod installed so you can install this version and just, you know, not cheat.

Cheat version:  Usable whenever, duration changed to Until a Long Rest, persistent VFX removed.

Enemy AI:  Theoretically the AI should still use the vanilla version, however I've been unable to test it.  If you encounter an enemy that actually casts "Enhance Leap" please let me know:  How it went, what enemies, where I can find them, what difficulty setting you used.


INSTALLATION
Recommend installing via the BG3 Mod Manager.  Do not ask me to troubleshoot Vortex for you, I don't use it.

Unzip .pak file into your (by default) "C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods" folder or equivalent.
Run or Refresh BG3 Mod Manager.
Drag Mod from "Inactive" (right side) to "Active" (left side)
First time running the mod:  Place at bottom of load order for maximum compatibility with other mods.
Click on the "Export" button or go to "File->Export to Game"

REQUIRES - "Baldur's Gate 3 Mod Fixer".  The mod fixer doesn't need to be installed via the manager, just place the .pak file in the Mod folder and it will work without extra steps.  Previous versions of the Mod Fixer, "Full Release Mod Fixer" or "Patch 3 Mod Fixer", are completely identical files so you can stick with them if you have them already.

Will throw up an error ("Unable to create a working story") when creating a new game or loading a game from before this mod was installed.  This error can be ignored, if you have the above Mod Fixer installed.  Installing "ImprovedUI", will remove the error message.

If installed mid-campaign, it will cause the Time Played (the number displayed on your savegame) to reset.  Same with every other mod that requires the above Mod Fixer.

Can be installed/uninstalled mid-campaign.

Mod Troubleshooting Guide: If the mod isn't working for you, please double check your installation by following the steps in the guide.
