FORCE LIGHTNING ANYONE (force power)
--------------------------------------------
By Darth333

A while ago, tk gave me the permission to release a TSL version of the darkside choker he made for
Kotor 1 so here it is with a few modifications.

This force power allows you to force lightning anyone in the game except your party members.

I modified tk102's original mod to make a force power which will apppear in the friendly force
power menu (where healing is) instead of using an armband. You can use it at any time and not
only during battle.

The other modifications I brought are:

- reduced area of effect (8m instead of 17m, which should allow you to target a npc with more precision)
- removed the possibility to target droids (maybe I should have added an exception for G0-T0...)
- removed the possibility to target puppets (poor Remote!)
- added the possibility to target some npcs which had the friendly faction but were not party members
- new lightning icon for the force power menu
- The Jedi will now gain a temporary bonus (60 seconds ) to charisma, wisom and intelligence when using this power for the for the first time
on a victim in order to allow him to be more persuasive and occasionally have the possibility to unlock a few additional dialogue options.

Other comments from the original mod:

- The first time you electrocute a specific npc, it will cause a shock simulation but with no damage (safety measure
to avoid killing npcs by mistake). Force lightning the npc a second time will start causing damage to the already
shocking victim.

- Darkside Points: If the user is neutral or good, he/she will receive darkside points when using
this armband to harm someone - no darkside points are given when force shocking a npc for the first time.

=====================================================
Using the force power:
=====================================================

- you will be able to select the force power in the level up menu only if you already have "Shock", which is a level
6 force power.

- Once you have Shock and Level 6, you will be able to select Force Lightning Anyone in the level up screen.
Force Lightning Anyone is not the Regular Force Lightning from the game. It has its own Icon: a red icon with a man getting electrocuted.

- The force power will be available at anytime in your friendly force power menu (same menu as heal).

- Don't go killing everyone in the game: if you kill key npcs, you'll may end up unable to progress in the main quest.
Chose your victims carefully. The script will target the nearrest npc. Use the force...and your head.


=====================================================
