About this mod
Guards with some actual spatial awareness!
An MWSE-Lua mod that replicates Inquisitive Guards by RubberMan and Protective Guards by Fliggerty. Guards that catch the player sneaking about in town will follow them for a length of time dependent on their sneak skill and will come to the aid of an unwanted player who is attacked unprovoked

About
An MWSE-Lua mod that replicates the features of Inquisitive Guards by RubberMan, Protective Guards by Fliggerty, and Protective Factions by Jay-D
Text
Open dialogue/text.lua to edit the text dialogues. I'm no writer so they're probably bad, but the framework is there for the dialogues to be easily edited or translated.
To add a new language add something like this to dialogues.lua:
The MCM dropdown will automatically be populated with the configured language, and once selected, those dialogues will be used.
Voice
Voice dialogues are pulled straight from the vanilla files, so not all will be 100% relevant, but they won't be out of place. The file dialogue/voice.lua is formatted much the same as text.lua, and contains all the voice dialogues, with a subtitle for each.
Interop
Currently extremely basic. Exposes some data for use in other mods.
Requirements
MGE XE with MWSE (Make sure you run MWSE-Update.exe)

About

- Guards that catch the player sneaking about in town will follow them for a length of time dependent on their sneak skill.
- Guards will come to the aid of an unwanted player who is attacked unprovoked
- If the player has their weapon out when combat with an NPC starts, guards don't know who started it, and will ignore the combat (probably not the best way to handle this, but the few false positives outweigh all the false negatives that would be otherwise)
- If the player has a bounty, guards will ignore the combat
- Option exists for faction members to aid the player in combat as well, with a configurable faction rank required for help to be given
- MCM Menu for configuration of many options
- Thanks to the power of MWSE Lua, all guards are affected, not just selected hardcoded guards
- Guards will say things:
- While the player is sneaking, on a chance based timer
- When the player stops sneaking while being followed
- When the guard gets bored of following the player
- When coming to the aid of an unwanted player who is attacked unprovoked
Text
Open dialogue/text.lua to edit the text dialogues. I'm no writer so they're probably bad, but the framework is there for the dialogues to be easily edited or translated.
To add a new language add something like this to dialogues.lua:
["your language"] = {
-- guards might say this every so often to players who are sneaking
-- %s is replaced with race or class
["sneaking"] = {
"dialogue goes here",
},
-- guards say this when players stop sneaking while being followed
-- %s is replaced with race or class
["stop_sneaking"] = {
"dialogue goes here",
},
-- guards say this when they're satisfied that the player is not doing anything illegal
-- %s is replaced with race or class
["stop_following"] = {
"dialogue goes here",
},
-- guards say this when coming to player's rescue when they're attacked unprovoked
-- %s is replaced with the name of the npc or creature attacking the player
["join_combat"] = {
"dialogue goes here",
}
}The MCM dropdown will automatically be populated with the configured language, and once selected, those dialogues will be used.

Voice dialogues are pulled straight from the vanilla files, so not all will be 100% relevant, but they won't be out of place. The file dialogue/voice.lua is formatted much the same as text.lua, and contains all the voice dialogues, with a subtitle for each.

Currently extremely basic. Exposes some data for use in other mods.
local mag = require("celediel.MoreAttentiveGuards.interop")
-- returns tes3reference of currently following guard, or nil if no follower
