It appears that the "NPC hates you if you don't pay up" feature breaks the NPC's functionality permanently. I've had both Colette and Farengar send thugs after me, and only after killing the thugs did I find out who sent them. They later turned sour towards me and refused to offer vendor services or skill training services. Is there a way to reset that disposition through console commands?
i may be wrong on this but i think you can use the .setrelationshiprank command to change disposition for an npc regardless of what you may have done to them in the past.
should be something like: setrelationshiprank (insert base id here) (number from 0-4)
simple yet amazing + to the immersion, could you add fear/intimidation feature/option as well? like giving them a chance of running away at any time based on level diff, or a dialogue option to intimidate them or telling them to leave him alone and let the thugs act based on the level diff + speech level? just a thought on my end.. I feel like if they don't avoid me or cower in fear, I'll prob kill them in every encounter anyway. This should add more variety
me - Gentlemen, this has all been a terrible misunderstanding! Thug - Uh huh. Gimme gold. I understand stuff better with gold. me - There you go, much obliged! Thug - Yeah, we gonna need more. See Bnorgi here don't understand so good either. Ain't that right Bnorgi? Thug 2 - *nods solemnly* me - *empties pockets* I'm afraid I'll have to owe you. Erm. Guards? Guards! Thug - *frowns* Thug 2 - *cleans nails with two handed axe* me - *frantically tries to download Guards Attack Hostiles from Combat Overhaul*
I look forward to many such fun vignettes and greatly reduced reloads thanks to your mod.
