About this mod

Looking at a locked object automatically selects the cheapest viable Open spell and switches back to your previously selected spell.

Convenient Open Spells

Description:
Despite their utility, digging through the spellbook for an Open spell is a frustrating experience that spoils the gameplay flow.

I often find that it’s faster (or at least simply more engaging) to pick a Very Easy lock than it is to use the spell. For the sake of everyone’s time and sanity, this mod dynamically switches between your currently selected spell, and the best Open spell for any lock you look at—provided you have the appropriate spell in your spellbook.

All done in real-time. No immersion-breaking menus, no dopamine-inhibiting pauses.

How selection works:
The script chooses the cheapest spell that you meet the requirements for that can open the lock. Only spells are selected automatically.
Greater Powers and Scrolls must be selected as usual. Your manual selection will be prioritized by the script.

Looking away or unlocking the lock will switch back to your previously selected spell.

Potential Features:
Option to ignore certain spells, like Fenrick’s Welcome
