Update: I packed and uploaded the non-final version by mistake, still with master dependencies, derp. It should work now.

While creating my Instabreak Pins mod, I discovered that setting iPickBreakSecs  to zero (or a negative value) makes it so bobby pins never break (or at least not within the 10 seconds I bothered to test this; I dunno if you can float overdlow your way around).

Please don't use this; vanilla lockpicking is easy enough already.

As in with Instabreak Pins: some credit to AshenBonfire (read my other mod's description for details).

I guess I should give credit to AshenBonfire : I could not figure out how to do this, until I took a look at the script in their Skillful Lockpickery mod for New Vegas and saw the iPickBreakSecs game setting used there. Then it was a matter of opening FO3Edit, creating a masterless .esp, and creating a gamesetting record in it with EditorID iPickBreakSecs (this is the important part) and value 0.000001.

Can you believe that , before I upload this mod, iPickBreakSecs returns 0 google results? If anybody knows the proper channels, feel free to document this.

Being a masterless patch, this should also work in New Vegas, and probably Skyrim too. Hell, it may even work in Fallout 4, though looking at the wikia there's a perk there whose 4th rank makes them unbreakable (maybe through a lockping bonus health setting), so maybe not - feel free to comment on whether it works for Syrim and F4, and if it does, I'll upload this on their nexuses too.
