Recommended to revamp the aurora production and add options to sell it to people.

Changelogs
Version 1.3
-changed NULLREF emotion in dialogue to NONEREF, becuase xedit spits out error on the former
This should not have been a problem because the nullref either instantly crashes the game or it doesnt - and it didnt. But still cleaned up just in case.
Version 1.2
-Corrected missing subtitle from Abello
-New drug effects modified. Alcohol + aurora mixes have the appropriate combined effects.
-Adjusted drug prices.
Version 1.1
-Fixed not being able to sell or craft drugs while radiant supply line quest is in progress.
-Aurora farming method added: you can now bribe Valentina in Xenofresh for 15k to start a 1 hour shift where you are allowed to steal the aurora resources.
-During bribed shifts, you have infinite material refills that you can take for yourself. This the easiest way to get the materials to craft Aurora.
-Dialogue for President Abello reworked and improved because I found out how to work with unique voicelines
Conner's Ordinary Conversations: Sale of Substances Jesse we need to cook Aurora. COCSOS is a drugdealing mod for Starfield that lets you sell Aurora to NPCs.
Citizens can be persuaded to buy Aurora, and other drugs.
Children can be sold drugs too. Children are easier to persuade.
You can start selling drugs after completing Supply Lines (the aurora questline in neon).
Outside of Neon, selling drugs within 20meters of a guard will alert the guard and trigger a bounty.
Drugs can be sold to a few unique npcs such as Bayu, Borealus, and President Abello. Persuasion not required.
Aurora recipe altered so that it requires making Unprocessed Aurora first. This extra step in crafting improves the "feel" of synthesizing aurora.
Valentina in Xenofresh can be bribed for 15k credits to initiate a corrupt work shift where you are allowed to steal assembly line materials for 1hr.
The above is the most efficient way to obtain aurora ingredients.
Base price of Aurora raised from 760->3000.
Selling drugs will alert nearby guards. Guards in Neon don't care.
Drug Recipes Expanded
"Just add water, stir it like a shake" -Pusha T
New drug recipes can be crafted after unlocking the Aurora recipe in Supply Lines. Using these recipes will net you more money. These recipes let you combine, modify, and refine your product like any dealer would. New recipes are only shown in crafting menu when you have the prerequisite drug (aurora/squall/whiteout/amp) in your inventory. Aurora crafting process has been modified such that you have to craft unprocessed aurora first. Refined aurora is crafted at the pharma lab, while the other drugs below are crafted at the cooking station.
Polaris: refined aurora + astral lounge sangria wine Boreal: aurora + bourbon Blend: aurora + boom pop cola Neon Drank: aurora + boom pop reactor
Unreleased Chems, coming in version 2.
Spoiler:
Show
I want these chems to use photomode imagespace modifiers, so I could not finish the chems in time for the first release.
Heat Death - aurora + amp + sparkling wine Deva - aurora + whiteout + synapse alpha + water Shesha - aurora + amp + water Ananda - aurora + paramour + water Samsara = all drugs combined. aurora + panacea + frostwolf + synapse + paramour + supergiantheart + water
Aurora Crafting Simplified Chasmbass is hard to farm in Starfield. Therefore, I have added a simple and intuitive resource farm for Aurora which fulfills the drug-making fantasy. Valentina in Xenofresh Industries can be bribed to begin a corrupt shift where she allows you to steal ingredients from the assembly line. For 15k credits, she will allow you to steal aurora ingredients for 1hour. You can choose to do your shift normally, or grab the ingredients for yourself. This corrupt shift can be done at the same time as the shift from the radiant Supply Lines quest. 15k credits is a lot of money - but you have 1hour to turn a profit on it.
After you have acquired the appropriate ingredients, it is time to cook. This video shows the full Aurora crafting process with COCSOS
A Part of the COCSOS Project COCSOS is not just a mod, COCSOS is part of a greater project called COCSOS. Conner's Ordinary Conversations - Social Overhaul Suite. COCSOS is a series of simple mods that seek to add new dialogue to starfield & offer new means of interacting with the NPCs in the gameworld. COCSOS is an idea. It is an idea that Citizens of CitiesShould Openly Socialize.
Q: How do I start selling drugs? A: Finish the Aurora questline in Neon. Drugdealing dialogue is unlocked after Supply Lines.
Q: Why are new drug recipes under the cooking station? A: You are a hood chemist.
Q: Why can you sell drugs to the President. A: Maybe she is a high-functioning addict, idk. I added this scene because I realized how hysterical and unhinged the persuasion minigame was, so might as well crank up the absurdity...
Q: How do I install manually? A: Seriously, the process is the same for every single mod. You drop files in data folder and enable mod in plugin.txt. Why can't you just google it instead of asking every mod author under the sun for the exact same instructions? Do you think mod authors are COCSOS citizens too?
Installation: -Nukem Plugin.txt Enabler required, as usual -Archive Invalidation required, as usual -MO2 is currently recommended for easy installation, as manual and Vortex installations pose their own unique issues. -Delete all ESP plugins because they are hacky plugins not made with proper tools. You should only have esms. -Load this mod near bottom of your load order, after any mods that edit aurora or contraband prices. -This mod edits the aurora and aurora recipe records. Does not edit any order base forms. -New drug recipes will not show if Variable Contraband Prices is installed because that mod swaps the aurora baseform. I have asked wSkeever to make fully compatible version.
