MCM Options for OLycanthrope - Version 1.3

This documents the current MCM settings and reasoning for the OLycanthrope mod.  There are a lot of settings which can be used to tweak the arousal and scene selection algorithms.  Some of these may be removed or changed later due to user feedback and to changes in  OSA/OSex/OStim capabilities.  Also while there are no finalized quests in the 1.1 release, you can sort of see where I'm heading with those from the Orgy and Quest options currently available.  Changed or added items are noted in hot pink.


Main Options

OLycanthrope Active
Module effects can be turned off completely

Set to `True` by default.  Will be automatically set to `False` if OStim or OAroused is not installed or older versions.


Notifications Active   
HUD Notifications can be turned off

Set to 'False' by default. 


Male Lycanthropes Are Always DOM
Male Lycanthropes will always be dominant actors in gay scenes.

Set to 'True' by default


Script Throttle
Main arousal routine will run the cycle time setting below in a 12 hour period, rather than 1.  For very limited computers.
 
Set to 'False' by default


Single Scene Only
Main arousal routine will only start additional scenes when the previous scenes have completed.  For very limited computers.

Set to 'False' by default


Arousal Cycle Time
How often should arousal/release loop run / hour of game time.  

Set to `4` as default.  

Adjust this value and the **Arousal Increase** value to balance how often you want sex scenes to occur.  This value may automatically adjust due to quest conditions, but will return to the user selected value afterwards.


Arousal Refractory Period
Amount of time to allow actors to recover from sex scenes before involving them in another.

Set to '2' hours as default.


Base Arousal Increase
How much the player and NPC's will have their arousal increased over time.  Each cycle adds a fraction of this arousal increase.  

Set to `10` as default.  This is the base amount.  The phase of the moons affects arousal.  Keep in mind that each present werewolf will increase others by this amount.  Other factors and quest events may temporarily adjust the total amount of arousal added to the player or NPC's.   In Jorrvaskr, there are 5 named werewolf NPC's and each werewolf (plus the player or their followers if werewolves) will add this amount of arousal to all present NPC's.  Player or NPC change from werebeast form will add sufficient arousal to push the actor beyond the **Arousal Threshhold** value.  Adjust this value and the **Arousal Cycle Time** to balance how often you want OStim scenes to occur.


Release Options

Arousal Threshold
How much does the player or NPC's need to be aroused to be involved in an sex scene.

Set at `85` as default.  Some settings of **Selection Priority** may override whether the Arousal Threshhold value is used in scene selection.


Ignore Vampires
Algorithm will ignore vampires.  

Set to `True` by default.  If you have Serana or another vampire as a follower and wish to include them in scene selection, turn this option off.  

Lore reason  Vampires are undead, so werewolf pheromones have no effect and werewolves would not seek out vampires for release as their heightened sense of smell would identify vampires as "meat".


Selection Priority
Set prioritization algorithm for the selection of which NPC's are available for OStim scenes.  

    1. `Werebeasts` -- Algorithm will only select werebeasts for sexual encounters.  All other present NPC's will be deprioritized.  

    2. `Arousal` -- NPC's with highest arousal will be prioritized first.       

    3. `Relationship` -- Prioritize those NPC's who already have a positive relationship with the player.  If ORomance is installed, priority will be given to those
NPC's being romanced.  Prioritization is in this order:  Spouse, Boy/Girl Friend, Lover, Follower, Friend


Increase Priority
Algorithm will up prioritize NPC's having the specified sex.

This should change the likelihood that a strictly non-bisexual character will have a scene with an NPC of their sex interest.      
    1. `None` -- No Up Prioritization will occur - Set as Default   
    2. `Male` -- Male NPC's will be up prioritized.   
    3. `Female` -- Female NPC's will be up prioritized.

Note  NPC's at arousal amounts above the **Arousal Threshhold** will still be prioritized first.  This may mean being woken up in the middle of the night by a horny Vilkas even if you would have preferred it to be Aela.  Also, keep in mind that in Vanilla Skyrim + Dragonborn DLC, there are only 3 named NPC female
werewolves who the PC can interact with.  Setting this value to `Female` may result in a lot of solo scenes.  If you are really offended by the algorithms choices, you should really be using `Relationship` **Selection Priority** mode and ORomance.


Threesome Scene Likelihood
Chance of involving 3 actors in a scene.  You may see female actors in male roles and vice versa.

Set to '20' percent by default.


NPC/NPC Scene Likelihood
Before a PC scene is initiated by an NPC actor, this value is used to determine if the actor will initiate a scene with another NPC actor.  A higher value indicates a higher chance of an NPC/NPC scene occurring.
 
Set to `20%` by default.


Masturbation Likelihood
Before a two person scene is chosen, this value is used to determine if the actor will engage in masturbation instead.  A higher value indicates a higher chance of masturbation occurring.  Players will also masturbate if alone and their arousal level is over the arousal threshold.

Set to `20%` by default.

Orgy Options

Orgies in Jorrvaskr
Orgy will occur in the Great Mead Hall of Jorrvaskr.  

Set to `True` by default.  If the fight between Athis and Njada Stonearm is occurring, the orgy will be pre-empted.  Orgy mode works by changing the Arousal Cycle time to 10 minutes.  One scene is started per cycle.  The cycle time will return to the normal cycle time once the number of actors present drops below 4.      
Lore Reason The Companions fight hard and they play hard.  All the alcohol and werewolf pheromones would keep them at a near constant state of arousal.

Require Companion Membership
Player must have joined the Companions and have a rank of "Whelp" for the Orgy to occur.  

Set to `True` by default.  This setting may be altered by quest conditions.  <---- Changed in 1.1

Lore Reason Skyrim is a pretty conservative place.  The Companions seek to keep their reputations by only having orgies when they are the only ones present.

Orgies Are A Good Way To Make Friends
Participating in sex at the orgy, raises the PC and their Followers to relationship status or "Friend" with the Companions.  

Set to `True` by default.  

Practical Reason This keeps participants from being attacked if they are
transformed into a werewolf due to having sex with werewolves.

Lore Reason   Duh.  I would think that having been so intimate with others, would
make you friends or allies.

Werewolves Are Invited To Orgies
If a PC is already a werewolf, then the orgy will occur regardless of Companion membership.  

Set To `True` by default.  <---- Changed in 1.1

Lore Reason  Werewolves would have heard it through the werebeast grape vine that orgies occur in Jorrvaskr.     

Sexy Sexy Time
Day of week that orgies occur on.  May be altered by quest conditions.  

Set to `Fredas` by default.    

"Full Moon" has been added as a selection option.  <--- Changed in 1.1

Lore Reason   Think of poor Tilma the Haggard having to clean up after all the wild sex parties in the main hall.  Isn't her job hard enough?



Extra Options

Cheesy Dialog on Orgasm
Show a little bit of lore-friendly info text upon orgasm while having penetrative sex with werewolves.  

Set to `True` by default.  


Semen Intoxication Duration
Having penetrative sex with a dominant male werewolf who orgasms within the sub actor will that actor to develop Werebeast Semen Intoxication.This setting determines the length of time that this effect lasts.  This is in lieu of being able to actually pass lycanthropy as a sexually transmitted disease.  STD Lycanthropy may eventually be added to this mod which will result in this option being deprecated.  


Semen Collection Likelihood
The chance of collecting semen from having non-penetrative sex with a male werewolf.   

Set to `75%` as default.  Masturbating male werewolves may also collect their own semen.

Transformation Options

PC Infection Method
If a lycanthropic disease method has been detected it will be displayed.

Set to 'Disabled' if no lycanthropic disease mod is detected.


Base Infection LIkelihood
Percent chance that an actor will be infected by having unprotected sex with a werebeast.

Set to '30' percent by default.  This value is affected by how many times an actor has been intoxicated and the phase of the moon.  NPC actors are 20 percent more likely to be infected than the PC.


NPC Transformation
NPC actors are allowed to transform

Set to 'True' as default


NPC Transforms with PC
NPC actors will only transform when the PC transforms.

Set to 'True' as default


Inhibition Options

Inhibit when children watching
Scenes will not start when children are present

Set to 'True' by default


Inhibit when guards are watching
Scenes will not start when guards are watching.  For users of OCrime

Set to 'False' by default


Inhibit when in bad weather.  
Scenes will not occur in Rain or Snow.  If survival mods are installed (CC/AE Survival, Frostfall, Frostbite, The Frozen North, or Sunhelm), scenes will not start when in wilderness or external areas unless actors are near a heat source or bedroll.  

Set to 'False' by default
