"Power Armor Sensor Training Quest"
This mod started as a simple way to give you Ed-E's Enhanced Sensor's and Boone's Spotter perk while wearing power armor.
It evolved greatly over the making of.
Now I provide a Quest to learn how to use power armor (for those who like to self teach themselves instead of finding an NPC to teach them).
Once you know how to use the power armor (Perk Power Armor Training - you can still go to that NPC if you want) the quest advances into using the power armor's built in sensor's (Perk Power Armor Sensor's).
Power Armor Sensor's - Not only do you know how to wear and use power armor, now you understand how to use the built in sensor suite to detect and annihilate your foes when wearing a full suit of Power Armor.
With 3 ranks to the perk to learn your power armor just gets better.
Spoiler:
Show
Rank 1
- Ed-E's original Enhanced Sensors - (Don't worry, I gave Ed-E something else)
- Reduce weapon strength requirements by 1
- Critical hit chance increase by 5%
- Boone's original Spotter - (I gave him something also)
- Rex's original Search and Mark - (He's a nice dog so I got him a treat)
- Reduce gun spread by 5%
On top of all that I decided to extend the quest into researching a portable sensor suite for you to use without power armor.
PAST-SCIM
- With an in depth understanding of the Power Armor Sensor Suite, you've figured out how to integrate the helmet sensors with your Optics Enhancer Implant.
- Now as long as you have a Sensor Integration Control Module with you, the sensor's send data straight to your implant providing a visual HUD Overlay.
- No more need to stuff your head in a tin can unless you just want to be intimidating.
- It only provides you with the three basic goodies (Enhanced Sensor's, Spotter, Search and Mark) not the extras.
I did mention that I gave some stuff back to Ed-E, Boone and Rex for taking their stuff, here is what they got.
While ED-E is a companion, ED-E's sensors integrate with your Pip-Boy's V.A.T.S. function to improve your accuracy. Perk 'Enhanced Sensors'
While Rex is a companion, Vendors are happy to see him and give you a deal. Even strangers stop by to see him more often. Perk 'Mascot'
Boone knows how use his rifle to kill his favored foe the Legion among other things. Perk 'Another for Carla'
And that's not all, I also provided you a challenge 'Tin Can Soldier' that provides a little XP - 'You've been living in a Tin Can recently.'
To my knowledge this mod will only conflict with mods that also change the 3 companions perks, the rest should be separate and OK.
To make this mod as compatible as possible in the future I made it dynamically side load all power armor into my two custom form lists based on how it's equipped (Body or Head). Now you can get a mod with custom built power armor and this still uses it if it's equipped on the Body or Head
Thank you for looking at this mod and have fun with it if you get it.
Thanks to VNV, without them I would be lost in the sea of mods https://vivanewvegas.moddinglinked.com/intro.html
Maybe someday I will have a mod included in their guide (hint hint)
