    wow this is exactly the feature I didnt know I needed, really helps balance all these quest mods and otherwise that add companions that dont take up a companion slot, great job as always skk!

    How does this work when you have 'quest companions'? AKA, when you're doing the ArcJet quest with Danse, Castle re-taking with Preston, etc.? Do they still charge you even though you haven't actually asked them to be your meatshie- err, companions? Hahaha
    I'm assuming this only works whenever you yourself actually ask them to come with you, but better safe than sorry. Moreso given how strange/finnicky this game can be with how it handles NPCs accompanying you at any given time.

      Most quests convert dependent companions into followers that cant be dismissed to protect your narrative. 

      If there are any which do not you will need to be careful with your caps.

      This hard core fiscal enforcer does not provide any RPG protection, its on you to manage your money. 

      If you can't then best not use this solution.

    Hello. Thank you very much for the mod. Works well with Aft and lot of follower mods and addons. I think it is very immersive feature- companions finnaly get some "share".. Can i ask? It is possible to remove "the hire block and message"?  Just taking the money from you/player after day and anoyed leaving if player have no cash..but with no block and message for "continuing the journey".. will be perfect and very imo i think. (If it is possible.)
    Thanks for your time. Have a nice day.

      I can made the caps messages a switchable option in the settings.

      The companion leaving message can not be changed as that's part of the base game.

      That will be great! Thanks.. Hmm, can be removed the first payment? - paying only after 24h? In theory this can be solution for romanced companions? (They take money, leave if u dont have, but can follow without money-for 24again)

      Still..its cool. May i ask for non message v.please? (If u have time) i like to use it, cause i really like nearly every hc feature add😁
      Thanks anyway. Am considering supporting cause f.e. your combat stalkers are gamechanger.

    It would be far more immersive if companions start a dialog themselves with proper sounding lines like 'pay pal', 'pay me you bastard' so that the player would have a choice, say once a week. Otherwise, it looks like they obtain some kind of electronic settlements system.

      No problem !

      If you hire the 13 official voice actors and the (lets say) 10 most used mod added companion actors to get that dialog I can include it.

      Just for your 'mushun.

      Oh, I would, honestly. If only I could... Mod authors increasingly use AI to sound npcs since I suppose no one likes to pay. Or, in a hardcore way, silent lines. Are voiceless mods in the past now? Anyway, seems you're trying to make the Lone Wanderer perk great again.

    I used a similar mod, Years ago on Skyrim. Glad something similar has come to Fallout 4...

    Ideas... All Optional in MCM
    1. Minimum Contract
    - 1 Day
    - 1 Week
    - 1 Month
    - 1 Year ... Hardcore, you aint ever getting rid of me...

    2. Non Payment repercussions
    Humans = Caps
    Dogmeat = Meat

    Possible...
    Devious Devices... 1 unlockable Device Each Day, Low Tier. After 1 Month...

    Various Companions, incur various Collars.
    Humans = Permanent Slave Collar
    Dogs = Permanent Dog Collar
    Vault-Tec = Permanent Vault Collar
    Synths = Permanent Institute Collar

    3. Additional Costs for leaving them, after they get knocked down.

    4. Dogmeat Paid in Meat

    5. Debt incurred for Companions who are off doing other stuff...
    - Preston Gravy... careful when he runs off to The Castle, you're still paying.
    - Paladin Danse... when he runs off, and leaves you. Also... at the end of his missions. You could be paying for dead weight, no Companion, all the Debt...
    - Lost Companions... you told them to Wait, and forgot to tell them to follow again. Forgetting where they are... I've done this a lot...

    6. Marriage Costs... You gotta pay for all your Wives, or Husbands. Even when not Travelling with them...


    Just some possible ideas... :)

    The vanilla companions don't really "put up with" anything (except for dogmeat), so this mod would make more sense if paying money on time can make them stop disliking the player just for some sacarstic comments or accidental steals.

      They don't shoot you in the face and loot your corpse.

      That's putting up.

    If I'm paying them then they better shut up whenever I make a sarcastic remark or do anything they dislike for some reason!
