ASIS - Automatic Spells, Increased Spawns

---

Nexus page (for PISE, not ASIS):
http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1269

ASIS will be released on the nexus... Well, when I feel it's ready for it. If a full GUI is implemented to mix up the current skyproc patches together in some manner, it may be a little bit. Beta is on the PISE page if you want to grab it there at any time. NMM-compatible, but not quite BAIN-compatible I don't believe.

Summary: A mix of 3 different options, which can be chosen from in the patcher. Increased Spawns will increase the spawns throughout the game world. Automatic Spells will give NPC's spells that they are missing, and spells from other mods, based on the skill levels an NPC has. NPC Potions adds potions to NPC's, similarly to how PISE implemented it.

Installation: Full installation instructions inside the readme in the download! Otherwise, drop the contents of the ASIS Patcher zip into the Data folder (preserving the folders inside), and run the ASIS.jar located in Data/SkyProc Patchers/ASIS/ASIS.jar. Alternatively, customize the ini files before running it.

For the plugin, just drop the plugin(s) and the scripts into the data directory as per normal.

Uninstallation: Just delete the ASIS.esp, ASIS-Dependency.esp, and the SkyProc Patchers/ASIS folder. If it's the only SkyProc patcher you use, just delete the whole SkyProc Patchers folder. Delete the increasedSpawns.pex, and the npcPotions.pex, inside Data/Scripts, and to completely delete it, also remove the ASIS strings in the Data/Strings folder.
--Note: If you are changing settings, DO NOT UNINSTALL IT. Just rebuild the patch and LEAVE THE ASIS.esp alone! It imports data from the first to prevent any saves from breaking. Only uninstall if you are not using it at all, or if you are guaranteed to start a new game and not play old ones that were using ASIS.

The patcher 'patches' in changes (similar to a Bashed Patch), and is fully compatible with all (most) other mods due to the wonders of SkyProc (<3).

Latest Version (1.82):
Use either the patcher OR the plugin. The default plugin is based off of vanilla settings.

Changes:

Spoiler

Version 1.81 -> 1.82

• Actually fixed the automatic spells ini this time.

Version 1.80 -> 1.81

• Fixed the Automatic Spells (had an ini change in the code, that I forgot to put into the ini itself - also, added many exclusions to get the proper clean spell lists). Big thanks to lifestorock for pointing out all those exclusions!

Version 1.62 -> 1.80

• Many many bug fixes, customized AI added, all sorts of stuff.

Version 1.61 -> 1.62

• Fix that actually adds the NPC potions check box option.

Version 1.6 -> 1.61:

• Fixed issue with scripts deleting NPC's early.

Version 1.53 -> 1.6:

• Added in NPC Potions.

Version 1.52 -> 1.53:

• Added ini entries courtesy of CorePC, updated from newer SkyProc, added NPC reset code to prevent spawn stacks.

Version 1.51 -> 1.52:

• Fixed aggression levels (used a SetAV instead of ModAV for reliability) of ambush NPC's.

Version 1.5 -> 1.51:

• Fixed broken coding logic to properly check against the form lists (which made all the checks fail and not have any NPC's spawn), and a couple other fixes.
  
• Added ambush changes, so any increased spawns around an ambush spot will not just stand there.

Version 1.4 -> 1.5:

• Adding a reduced spawns setting.
  
• Reworked entirely to not use duplicate NPC's.
  
• Added ASIS-Dependency which contains a unique faction for NPC's, used to prevent spawn loops.
  
• Re-added encounter NPC's.
  
• Updated to latest SkyProc for proper import of plugins.

Version 1.3 -> 1.4:

• Changed the exclusion list to exclude templates.
  
• Removed all encounter creatures from the lists to fix the face mismatch.
  
• Integrated progress bar.
  
• Few minor other improvements.

Version 1.2 -> 1.3:

• Rewrote most of the code to be significantly more organized. Source IS available on request, if anyone's interested.
  
• Adding a second duplication of NPC's to re-link templates in Increased Spawns, to make sure it's linking to exact, identical NPC's for safety's sake.

Versions <1.2 -> 1.2:

• Most of the base code was written and rewritten during this stage, isolating and determining bugs and the best ways to evaluate the spawn increases.

A few tidbits of information;

Increased Spawns:
Spawn weights in the Increased Spawns ini are direct weightings. They currently add up to 400, but do not need to by any means. If you have a weighting of 30 and a total number of 600, there is a 5% chance of that specific weighting to happen, for example. The defaults are;

• 0 Extra - 50% (200 weight)
  
• 1 Extra - 37.5% (150 weight)
  
• 2 Extra - 8.75% (35 weight)
  
• 3 Extra - 2.5% (10 weight)
  
• 4 Extra - 0.75% (3 weight)
  
• 5 Extra - 0.5% (2 weight)
  
• All the rest -> 0%, 0 weight.

If you need to reduce spawns in some manner, the [NPCReducedSpawnSettings] is the form of editorID=reducer, in which all spawn weights for an NPC containing that phrase of the editor ID are divided by the reducer except for spawn 0 weight.

If you want to cap the spawns, the [NPCMaxSpawnSettings] (can be added to the ini) is the form of editorID=cap, in which the number of spawns is capped at that number.

Automatic Spells:
In automatic spells, NPC's are given spells depending on the requirements. It determines this based on the perks, and thus, each perk level is associated with the spell and the requirement. For example, in the ini, adeptLevel is 45, so if an NPC has a skill level of 45 destruction, the NPC will get all adept level destruction spells.

NPC Potions:
NPC's get potions, they get a certain chance for a number of potions, configurable in the ini file.

Troubleshooting:
Please be sure to have an updated version of Skyrim and both versions of java, x86 and x64. You may not need both versions, but if you have troubles, try installing both. More troubleshooting is in the readme inside the download.

Thanks BootySweat for letting me grab the thread text!

Was working on encounter zones, but ran into an error. Gonna have to debug it a bit. Estimated finish time is still over the next couple days. My next goal, if possible, is to set up Real Lights via SkyProc, and then I'll work on weapon/armor integration and leveled list rebalancing. After that, I'll probably work on automatic perks for NPC's.

Dres may work on any one of those, or whatever he feels like adding in.
