- Permissions and credits
Duke Patricks - Minimalistic Bottle Shoot Archery Practice
Beta 1.1
Each point your see in your menu (from 1 to 100 marksman skill ) is earned by FIRST earning 100 increments skill points.
To get 30 of these increment skill points you need to earn 3600 of my bottle practice points.
The further away you are from the bottle the more bottle points you get each time you hit the bottle. Once you hit the bottle for my 3600 bottle points that number goes to zero, but you get 30 increment points.
Once you get 100 increment points you get 1 skill point in marksmanship and you will hear the "prump per um sound effect" and see a message that say your skill leveled up.
Had I realized at first the increment system the game used I would have hidden the 3600 bottle points system from the user so as to be less confusing. I may change this sometime in the future, but for now I am days off from the project I am suppose to be working on, so this goes on the way back burner for now.

Shoot at them with your bow ….ANY BOW…. ANY ARROW!!!
The further you are away from the bottles the more points you will get.
Once you reach 3600 points your marksmanship level advance in the same way as if you had made a kill with your bow.
If you are a hard core immersionist make sure you do not have any TARGET PRACTICE bottles in your inventory as you shoot.
This way you can go chasing your bottles around to collect them after each shot.
If you are not that hardcore then simply be sure you have at least ONE target practice bottle in your inventory as you shoot and the bottles will reset themselves back into position (most of the time).
Make sure you do not bunch up the bottles too close to each other and not in a line from your perspective (to and fro), otherwise the script might get confused and may not reward you if you hit the bottle you aimed at.
As long as the bottles are about 2 feet from each other and aligned horizontally from your perspective that will work just fine!
I was working on a way to prevent this "script confusion" but then I realized that this is actually a feature not a design flaw. This way you do not bunch up the bottles and shoot at them as a large target to cheat the points.
Do not download this mod unless you understand that I made this mod for my own use!
I have stated a new PC (who cannot hit the broad side of an Ogre ) as a result of PC crash and reformat, and I wanted a Minimalistic mod for archery practice.
All the other archery practice mods I tried either had too many issues to run reliably or was too convoluted (IMO) for such a simple thing as archery practice.
This mod is only about 60 lines of script with no game magic or enchanted weapons involved at all!
I will try to fix bugs if any are that bad, but I have no time to "improve" this mod,so any suggestions for "improvements" will be ignored unless it tickles my fancy so much I will drop all my other work and projects just to add it in.
Do not download this mod unless you understand and agree to that!
Load order is not important for this mod, and the only way (I know of at this time) it could conflict with another mod is if that other mod prevents my bottles from showing up in the Archer’s Paradox shop. In that case load my mod after the conflicting mod.
If the mod will not work for you please just delete it from your PC and look for one of the other mods made for archery practice.

Do not re-upload this mod to any other place on the net!
Do not make it available in any way other than where I have uploaded it to on TesNexus.
Modders may "adapt" my work as long as you do not take the credit for
all the creative work I did to get this mod to work in this unique way.
(I.E, credit me fully for the way the mod works). And only if you make your mod
different enough to provide an alternative for players that would not otherwise use my mod.
I.E do not make a disguised knock off!

They deserve every coin the get for this game!
