Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs


Stökk
 (Icelandic for "Jump"/"Fast Running") implements a simple Acrobatics and Athletics skill system.

You gain Acrobatics skill by jumping, and Athletics skill by sprinting.

Once you have exercised your Acrobatics/Athletics skills enough for them to grow, you can sleep to become faster and jump higher. (You will get a notification every 10 minutes reminding you to sleep if a level up is ready, as shown in the uploaded images)

Acrobatics and Athletics both start at level 0, and max out at level 100.

Acrobatics skill increases jump height and decreases fall damage.
Athletics increases player speed and decreases stamina drain from sprinting.

Both Acrobatics AND Athletics increase total stamina and carryweight.


The Numbers

With Stökk installed, all values are slightly worse than vanilla at Acrobatic/Athletics level 0 . At approximately level 25 in Acrobatics/Athletics your speed/jumpheight/etc will match vanilla's. From Acrobatics/Athletics level 26 onward, the values are better than vanilla. (This is now all configurable via the MCM)

Spoiler:  
Show

The exact minimum/maximum DEFAULT values for Stökk are shown below. (MCM reconfigurable)

Acrobatics values at level 0 -> level 100 (vanilla values in parentheses)
  • fJumpHeightMin  50 -> 150  (76)
  • fJumpFallHeightMin  400 -> 1200  (600)
  • fJumpFallHeightMult  0.12 -> 0.04  (0.10)

Athletics values at level 0 -> level 100 (vanilla values in parentheses)
  • SpeedMult  90 -> 130  (100)
  • fSprintStaminaDrainMult  10 -> 1  (7)

The Miscellaneous File "Stokk - Simple Acrobatic and Athletics - Stamina and CarryWeight edition" additionally modifies Stamina and CarryWeight based on both Acrobatics/Athletics level.
Acrobatics and Athletics level 0 -> level 100
  • Stamina  50 -> 250
  • Carry Weight 200 -> 600


Experience Formula

You receive 1 Acrobatics Experience point each time you jump.
You receive 1 Athletics Experience point for each step you take while sprinting.

Stokk's Cumulative Experience formula is:

experience(level) = multiplier * level² + offset * level

The Multiplier and Offset are configurable via the MCM

Spoiler:  
Show

As an example, suppose you set the Acrobatics multiplier to 1.0 and the offset to 10. Leveling Acrobatics from level 0 to level 25 would require 875 total jumps.

experience(25) = 1 * 25² + 25 * 10 = 875

And leveling Acrobatics from level 0 to level 100 requires 11000 total jumps.

experience(100) = 1 * 100² * 100 * 10 = 11000


Compatibility

Incompatible:

Jump Behavior Overhaul

Compatible:
 Better Jumping SE

Stökk uses vanilla animation events to determine when the player is sprinting and jumping in order to award experience. Animation mods that replace the vanilla sprinting/jumping animations would prevent you for gaining any experience.

Stökk should be compatible with any mod that does not alter the same GameSettings values. If another mod changes them, Stökk will overwrite their values whenever you sleep to level up Acrobatics or Athletics. This is the list of game setting values Stökk uses:
fJumpHeightMin
fJumpFallHeightMin
fJumpFallHeightMult
fSprintStaminaDrainMult

FAQ

Q: Is there a perk tree?
A: This mod does not add any perks or a perk tree. It's just a simple increase of speed/jumping prowess based on vanilla-like "level by doing" actions.


Recommended Mods

I recommend using Better Jumping SE, as it allows sprint jumping. This makes leveling Acrobatics much more convenient and fun.

Final Notes

I want to thank zenith44 for making the source code to Dynamic Magicka and Stamina Growth
freely available. And Huurg for updating/uploading for SE (otherwise I may never have seen it). Reading their source code gave me the idea for this mod.

This is my first mod, I tried my best to follow good coding practice and keep the scripts nice and clean. However, it is my first mod, and feedback is appreciated. I have uploaded the source code along with the mod, so if anyone has suggestions or spots a bug, feel free to report it in the bug section!

Hope you enjoy the mod!
