About this mod

A number of tweaks, bug fixes, and changes that will cut down on your load order.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
This mod makes a number of subtle gameplay changes and tweaks. Also includes many bug fixes and other useful things tailored around vanilla. Should make alot of smaller mods redundant so please read the description in full.

Installation:

-Requires YUP and all DLC

Recommendations:
