What it Does
I've been wanting a mod that made Pick pocketing someone a little more subtle, so I made this pretty light mod that does just that. All you have to do is activate the lesser power "Sleight of Hand" and walk passed your target within 10 seconds, making sure to get within at least a few in-game feet, or "bumping" distance". The chance of successfully pick pocketing someone is determined solely by your pick pocketing skill. There are options in the MCM menu that let you set how close the NPC needs to be for a successful pick pocket as well as your bounty for when you are unsuccessful.
Once you gain access to the NPC's inventory, you will only be able to select a certain number of items (Default of 3, Configurable in MCM) before the NPC notices. If you take anymore items, you will be kicked out of the inventory and you will receive a bounty.
How it Works:
I've probably over-engineered the hell out of this but basically the mod "draws a circle" around the player and samples a point along the circle, checking for the closest NPC near that point. The mod is fully configurable in the MCM menu.
Quick video on how the mod checks for NPCs around the player:
How to Get:
You can find the Book: "Legerdemain: Sleight of Hand" at the Bar in the Ragged Flagon. Or you can use AddItemMenu and search for it there.
Requires:
- SKSE
Incompatibilities:
Honestly, no idea. Tested it on my play-through with 800+ mods for all of about 10 minutes. If there are any, make sure to let me know =D
- It seems that some folk may need to clean their save file in order to get this mod to work. Not sure why yet but for those having issues, give that a try and lemme know if it fixes it.
