About this mod

Minimal mod that allows you to activate puzzle pillars and claw door rings twice to turn them by two positions without having to wait for the first animation to stop. Both animations still have to complete but you can already turn your attention to the next pillar. Only changes the vanilla scripts. No esm/esp/esl.

Huh? Ah yes, hello! This tiny mod changes the scripts for puzzle pillars and the rings on the dragon claw doors so that if you already know you need the second symbol you can just activate the puzzle twice. Both animations still have to complete but you can already turn your attention to the next pillar. That's it.

Compatibility
Should be compatible with anything that doesn't change the same scripts. USSEP hasn't touched those. If you know of a mod that makes changes to these scripts or if you find a puzzle pillar or claw door that I haven't covered yet, please let me know and I will see about making a patch where it makes sense.

Installation
I highly recommend installation with a mod manager since these are just some loose scripts. If you insist you can install the mod manually by dropping the contents of the mod folder into your data directory.

Requirements
Skyrim (LE, SE, VR)

So... What does this do?
When you activate a puzzle pillar in the original game you have to wait until it has turned before you can activate it again to turn it further. With this mod you can just activate it twice and it will turn by two positions without further interaction.

Can I activate again if I have accidentally passed the correct symbol already?
Yes, just activate another two times. The pillar script keeps track of up to five activation requests in addition to the current turn.

Will this break if I keep continuously activating it for an hour (evil laugh, eyes flashing)?
Sorry to disappoint you but it will work just fine and stop five turns after your last activation.

Don't you have better things to do (hint, hint)?
Yeah, but this only took a moment and wouldn't have needed any upgrades since 2011.
