| One Life to Live |
| A Morrowind Mod, Version 1.0.1 |
| by Necrolesian |
===============================================================================

-------------
Description |
-------------

This mod implements permadeath, with a configurable number of lives. Once
you've lost your last life, you're dead forever. There are no 1-ups.

The Mod Config Menu allows you to enable or disable permadeath for new
characters, and to determine the number of lives new characters will receive.

When a new game is started, if permadeath is enabled for new characters, the
number of lives available for the new character will be set. The mod tracks the
number of times your character dies. Once the character is out of lives, you
will no longer be able to load any savegames for that character.

When a character dies the final death, you'll be given the option of starting a
new game, or you can choose to load a different character or exit the game
instead.

You'll notice a new stat displayed in the stat menu: number of lives remaining.
A message is also displayed on loading a game or when you die, showing how many
lives you have left. (These messages can be disabled in the MCM.)

This mod requires starting a new game in order to work. The number of lives
available is only set on a new game, so this mod will do nothing if you load a
save for a character created without this mod enabled.

--------------
Installation |
--------------

Use a mod management tool such as Wrye Mash, or just copy the MWSE directory to
your Data Files directory.

--------------
Requirements |
--------------

This mod requires MGE XE and the latest version of MWSE 2.1. Just install MGE
XE and run MWSE-Update.exe to download the latest build.

---------------
Compatibility |
---------------

One Life to Live should be compatible with just about anything, except for
other mods that do something unusual when the player takes enough damage to
kill them. Using such mods (e.g. Timely Escape) along with this one is likely
to cause at least one mod to not work properly.

Credits |
---------

First, this mod would not exist without NullCascade's Permanently Perished.
That mod's code helped me figure out how to do a few things, such as
persistently save a character's number of deaths.

Also, thanks to Greatness7 and Merlord for helping me figure out how to change
the behavior of the messagebox displayed upon death when a character is out of
lives.

And Merlord's Character Backgrounds showed me how to display the number of
lives remaining in the menu.
