4. PLUGIN FEATURES

*****************************************************************

Do you like playing in 1st person mode but tire of the spell casting "hands" or combat "fists" animations?
This mod supports automatic 1st person to 3rd person perspective change during:
- Spell casting (on-self only or on-self, touch and target)
- Combat attacks (hand to hand, melee and/or marksman)

Or would you would like text notifications of missed, hit and/or untargeted attacks?
This mod also supports simple subtitle notifications for:
- Missed melee combat attacks "Your strike missed."
- No target found or out of range attacks "Your strike waived."
- Combat hits "Your strike hit."
- Chance of skill-based description added "Your strike missed spectacularly"

And this mod adds several ranged weapon game play convenience features:
- When attempting to shoot with no ammo, the alphabetically first one in the player's inventory will load
- The "o"/"p" keys will ready the alphabedically previous/next ammo or thrown weapon in the player's inventory
- Both of the above are accompanied by message boxes such as "Steel arrows readied", etc

On first loading, all featurs are maximally enabled.
To seleteviely disable or change features:
Double click the POV key (default Tab) to open the configuration menu.
Notes for message notifications:
Generic naming "Your long blade missed."
Specific naming "Your Steel Claymore missed."
Descriptive skill based messaging "Your Steel Claymore missed clumsily."
Changes will be saved and restored for all future sessions.
